I want to rock and roll all night and Bunco Party every day!

It’s important to get in the Bunco party frame of mind when you start to plan any Bunco event. In fact I have a post it note on my computer with this sentence to remind me every day what a fun and exciting business I work in.

How does this sentence mean to you?

I see so many Bunco party hosts make two common mistakes:

1. They want to start a Bunco party group without taking time to plan the group dynamics.  A Bunco party group is only as “hot” as the members you invite. When you start a new Bunco Party group you need to know everyone fairly well, and know their key personality traits you sell. You need at least one Bunco expert who can lead the flow of the party and explain the Bunco rules. You need to be passionate about the game of Bunco. You are going to be playing, eating, talking, and dreaming with this Bunco group for hopefully a long, long time. Be passionate about the people you invite to join your Bunco Party group and they will be passionate about about joining you in too.

2.  Bunco party hosts think they have to have 1,00’s of party supplies and a ton of theme ideas to start their Bunco party group and have a successful party.
Wrong. You don’t need EVERY single unco supply to have a successful Bunco theme supplies as the months go on. If you want to host basic Bunco parties, pick up one of the complete Bunco kits that have generic Bunco dice, Bunco scores sheets, Bunco tally pads, a Bunco bell, and pencils.

I want you to pick one set of friends and one theme to start with … and do it well. Your new Bunco party group will tell you what they want to do for Bunco themes next.

Are you passionate about your friends Are you passionate about Bunco?

Happy rolling,
-DeAnna

Well, we have the perfect replica that can take you back to those wonder days as well as make your bunco party a fun celebration.

The Hip Dice Sunglasses for Bunco are a great way to get all of the gals in to the game. Hand a pair to everyone as they walk in through the door. The Hip Dice Sunglasses can be just a part of your theme or you can hand them out for no reason at all besides getting everyone in to the correct rollin’ mood!

The sunglasses are have a red plastic frame and giant white dice on the front. See, they do remind you of the good ol’ days! The dice on the front have different colored pips and look like they were actually rolled out. The Hip Dice Sunglasses are actually functional and provide UV protection if you ever do feel the need to wear them outside. Maybe your bunco night can play in the afternoon one time and everyone can get their shades on to roll.

The Hip Dice Sunglasses also make for a great addition to a theme. How about some Summer Lovin’, a bit of Beach Day or how about Catching Some Rays? No matter what theme you choose, the sunglasses will make you all chuckle at each other and comment on how ridiculous – but fun you look. The Hip Dice Sunglasses could also be used for the booby prize for the lowest roller at the end of the night. It’s all up to you.

That’s the Spirit – Choosing Beer, Wine and Cocktails for your next bunco party!

To help you plan your next party, here are some tips and guidelines for what to serve, how much to spend, and just how much wine your friends will drink at your next bunco party.

To help you plan your next bunco party, here are some tips and guidelines for what to serve, how much to spend, and just how much wine your friends will drink.
How much do I need?
As a general rule, you will get six 4-ounce glasses from a 750ml bottle of wine. The average guest at a stand-up party will drink two glasses of wine an hour. With these numbers in mind, the math is easy. If you have 15 guests at a cocktail party, they’ll go through 30 glasses, or five bottles of wine per hour. This means you’ll need about a bottle per person for a typical three-hour party. At a dinner, the average is half a bottle per person, so a group of six will drink three bottles. Try opening a different wine for each course, or have white wine when your guests arrive and serve two bottles of red with dinner. For any party, it’s a good idea to have an extra bottle or two on hand – wine goes fast when shared amongst good friends.
How much should I spend?
First off, set a wine budget. Since you already know how many bottles you need, a budget will help guide you to an appropriate price point.
For a small dinner party, especially one where wine will be the star, it’s always nice to splurge on a few good bottles. Indulge your friends (and yourself, of course) with a special vintage or a limited production, small-lot wine. Or, choose a less expensive wine to start and serve a pricier selection with dinner, where it will complement the meal.
A bigger bash needs a crowd pleaser, something that’s easy to drink, like Merlot. Also, consider what’s trendy: Right now, Shiraz is big and Chardonnay is enjoying a renaissance, so these will probably be good choices. For convenience, you may want to buy wine by the magnum (that is, a size equivalent to two 750ml bottles) so you won’t need to crack open a new bottle every twenty minutes.
Serving suggestions
When hosting a large group, create a wine bar so guests can serve themselves. Before everyone arrives, place several bottles on a small table, along with a corkscrew, a towel (for spills), the glasses, and maybe some wine charms. Open a few bottles to get things started, and your guests will take care of things from there. Plan on having 1 1/2 glasses per person. Consider renting the necessary stemware so no one’s drinking wine from a coffee mug. For a dinner party, set up a table, similar to the one above, in the dining room. Serve guests their first glass of wine on arrival and then place open bottles on the table, where they can be easily accessed during the meal.
Of course the most important consideration is the comfort and pleasure of your guests. Don’t fret over a specific vintage or just the right varietal.
