Big, Inexpensive Fabulous Décor
From homepage, search under "mardi gras." A lot of decorating bang for the buck but with this company, we always give the same advice: hire a handyman or some clever teenagers the week before your event to put your items together!

And other parts of the shattered Gulf Coast. Contact Katrina charities to see what your child can do to help them. It may be rounding up clothing or toys for kids, earning money to donate to a charity or to buy needed items, or something else. Most important, plan a trip there to help the area rebound and encourage your guests to go too. Mardi Gras is a difficult time to be there as massive crowding often means you won't be able to get into restaurants or all the great little shops and other attractions. It's also - between the drinking and debauchery - rather X-rated for a child or sensitive adult. But go any other time and Laissez les bon temps roulez (Let the good times roll)!
Great Centerpiece
The Event Diva serves MA and RI with a fabulous blend of imagination, creativity and professionalism. They offer total service from choosing a venue to gently telling the last person at the party that, however unwilling, they simply must go home.

Mardi Gras season in New Orleans actually begins many weeks before Fat Tuesday itself with a round of parties. At each party, King Cake is served. A toy baby is concealed in the cake - whoever gets that piece hosts the next party. Serve your own king cake and award a prize to whomever gets the baby. The link below will take you to a page with several bakeries that will ship them to you.

"Hurricane" is a more sobering word since Katrina, but the spirit of New Orleans can never be entirely daunted and this fabulous drink will never disappear from the French Quarter. Serve them at your party. Buy your mix from the Quarter's official Hurricane headquarters, Pat O'Brien's, and you'll be doing a mitzvah for that depressed area. See the link for recipe and ordering info.
