Fun ‘wow' factor ideas for your next party

Everyone loves adding a “wow” to their party. There are lots of simple (and affordable) ideas that can give your event that little something else to impress your guests, as well as add some fun factor.

1. Hire a slushie machine

Whether it's a birthday party for the kids, or it's for the big kids at heart – everyone wants a slushie machine! It's also an easy way to ensure the drinks are served cold all night.

2. Got a sweet tooth? Hire a chocolate fountain

Chocolate fountains can serve as little as 20 guests, up to over 1,000 guests for larger events. The sure thing is, everyone will love the novelty of being able to chocolate shower their sweet treats.

3. Hire a fairy floss/cotton candy machine

Not only is fairy floss super fun (and very easy with a machine) to make, it's delicious and looks awesome in photos.

4. Serve fresh popcorn

Who doesn't love the smell (and sound) of fresh popcorn? Popcorn is an easy and cheap savoury snack favourite to serve to your guests, and it always tastes best when it's hot and freshly popped.

5. Hire a jukebox karaoke machine to provide the tunes

Everyone has a favourite karaoke song in their repertoire, and most of the time it's one that everyone else will want to sing along to. So why not share a couple of microphones and the DJ'ing for the night with a jukebox karaoke machine hire!
