Making Of An Instrument Banquet Theme

DECORATIONS: Put greenery in the middle of the table and place a borrowed instument in the greenery. Violins, trumpets, and clarinets work very well. Sprinkle confetti in the shape of musical notes (found at dollar stores, party stores, etc.) on the tables. Copy hymns onto parchment paper and burn the edges for a beautiful effect. Arrange a couple of these on the tables also.

SPECIAL TOUCH: Hire a harpist, violinist or some other musician to play while you are having dinner. I contacted a local music shop that was able to help me locate someone. She played both classical music and hymns. You could also try your local symphony, or university for help locating someone.

THEME VERSE: Romans 6:13

SUGGESTED MENU: Turkey, mashed potatoes, greenbeans, applesauce, cake

DOOR PRIZES: Tapes and CD's of good Christian music.
