Masked balls?

My cousin's quince is going to be a masked ball theme. her dress will probably be white, while me and my other cousin (we're special) are going to have pink, and the rest of the girl court will be Red (maroonish?). So we need help on what the guys are wearing. And masks. We want the kind that is a string or ribbion around your head to hold it, but the the stick ones seem really elegant.





and any ideas on how to make Hall spectuacular. It was just be a regular halls with a few windows.


=]Masked balls?
Lol, this question has a funny title.Masked balls?
Hum... Your cousin should wear an elegant stick mask and you and the other special people should wear simple pink sequined masks. ( while your cousin wers a white sequined on elegant and feathery) You should have a color theme like pink and white (example) tell that to your guests. If the special people and you have esquorts then they should wear a tux with open jacket and lose collar with pink shirts and your cousin's escourt shouls be the same with a white shirt. For their masks they should wear masks like the male dancers in ';Just My Luck' E-mail me if you need anymore help!

Where/When are there masked balls held in or near Virginia?

I've always wanted to go to a masked ball. I'm looking for one to attend that is truly elegant, ball gowns and all, not just long A-line type dresses. How do I locate one? My searches are not coming up with much. Thanks.Where/When are there masked balls held in or near Virginia?
They are very few and far between. Almost all are private events held close to holidays.





However, there is something similar to what you may be interested in that occurs every July. The Mid-Summer Fantasy Ball is held to raise funds for MS research. Currently, the web site has been taken down but look for it around February when tickets go on sale.





Good luck!Where/When are there masked balls held in or near Virginia?
I would presume a masked ball would be held around Mardi Gras,in conjunction with the masked Mardi Gras balls in New Orleans.This usually happens around mid Februrary.Check with your local newspapers about this event.

For masquerade balls, do people generally make their own masks?

Or do they buy masks?





and if you make one, is it alright to use a plain plastic half mask from a craft store as a base and add on to it?For masquerade balls, do people generally make their own masks?
For masquerade balls, most people buy their masks, not make them.


But if you want to make yours, thats cute too. I like your idea of just getting a plain half mask for the base.





Have fun :)

If you could go to a maskquerade ball say like in Vence Italy who would you go as in costume and masks???

I think I would where a beautiful dress like in Mozarts time and Queen Antoinette I love the classical time with the big hair and big dresses :)))Who would you be........???%26amp; Why :))))If you could go to a maskquerade ball say like in Vence Italy who would you go as in costume and masks???
I would wear one of the costumes and goblin masks from the masquerade scene in The Labyrinth. Those dresses were AMAZING! And David Bowie looked damn sexy as usual...If you could go to a maskquerade ball say like in Vence Italy who would you go as in costume and masks???
I would go as either the pope, or one of the fabulous medicci's. Maybe romeo and juliette. someone italian for sure. even michaelangelo or gallileo. :)
kinky...
I don'te recall many people I would love to become.


Yet I would have loved being in that wicked black ';web'; dress, that the girl in movie ';Legends'; wore while she was being seduced by the Devil and she was dancing with the flames. The ballet dancers in the shadows were incredible.

When you go paint balling do they give you overalls? or mask... what do i need?

please helpWhen you go paint balling do they give you overalls? or mask... what do i need?
When you go you can rent everything you need. They should have masks, guns, tanks, and paintballs all in one package. They do have a protective vest you can rent but it makes you look sissy. Take more money than you think you would need and if you want to save money bring your own food and drinks. You can also where heavier clothing if you are scared of getting hit. Overall just have fun.When you go paint balling do they give you overalls? or mask... what do i need?
if you are going to a park they will supply the gun,mask, and any ammunition/air you will need iv never heard of anyone providing clothing...i suggest wearing something a lil bulky can soften the blow...the paint shouldnt stain although it has done so to me on occasion..hope this helps....
they will provide you with a gun rental, mask, and air or c02 depending on what they're using. wear some clothes you don't mind getting dirty.
just wear a sweatshirt and theyl give u a mask

I need help researching about masks that Elizabethans wore to balls during the 15th cent! Any good sites?

I want to know what they looked like and I'm working on a project in which I need to create masks for the scene when Romeo and Juliet meet at the Capulet ball.





I need to make masks for Tybalt, Juliet, Mercutio, %26amp; Benvolio that they may have chosen to wear to the Capulet ball.





I also need to explain my reasons for the designs that I create for each character.





****However, I just need some really good websites to research from! Please and thank you very much!I need help researching about masks that Elizabethans wore to balls during the 15th cent! Any good sites?

Internet Public Library has a list of Costume sites at http://www.ipl.org.ar/ref/RR/static/soc7鈥?/a>





This is a topic on which you may have better luck in your nearest university library reference room, especially if the school has a good drama program. There are likely to be a lot of books with pictures which go beyond what's available electronically. Ask a reference librarian for help locating these, which may be in reference or in the stacks to be checked out.

Would it've been appropriate for masked balls to've been held for birthday celebrations in Elizabethan times?

Any other facts about the elizabethan era or masked balls would also be helpful, thanks :)Would it've been appropriate for masked balls to've been held for birthday celebrations in Elizabethan times?
Yes, the Elizabethans would have considered a masquerade a totally appropriate birthday celebration. Costumed balls began in 15th-century Italy and were first associated with the Venetian Carnival. From Italy, they spread to the rest of Europe.





Masques, an elaborate form of entertaining featuring music, dancing, singing, dancing and above all staging with scenery and elaborate costumes, developed from these celebrations.





Edgar Allen Poe wrote about a macabre masked ball in the short story ';The Masque of the Red Death';, and a masked ball figured prominently in the plot of Hermann Hesse's ';Steppenwolf';. Finally, one of the major scenes in the musical ';The Phantom of the Opera'; features a masked ball.Would it've been appropriate for masked balls to've been held for birthday celebrations in Elizabethan times?
I don't know what your definition of masked ball is, but at the court of Henry VIII, he and his mates would get dressed up as pirates or Indians and ';invade'; the ladies' rooms, to the unexpected(yeah, right)horror of the ladies.


As well, masked people danced in a cross between ballet and theatre, called a masque, and took off disguises at midnight, to everyone's unexpected(yeah, right)surprise. This was common right through the 15th and 16th centuries in England.


Birthday celebrations were quite low-key, the big day of the year was your saint's day, until Edward VI abolished the saints when he became a puritan king.(he was only 10 at the time).


In Europe, especially France and Italy, masking was much moire common, but I'm no expert on those customs.


Hope this was of some help.

Does anyone have any ideas for a Halloween, 1700s era masked ball? (LOW budget!)?

My friends and i have about 20 people (a few of them boys that are not exactly friends, more like guys our guy friends know we are trying to impress) coming to my house for a party where you must wear a mask and formal attire. We have a very low budget (like, dollar store is good!), but want to transform my house into an old 'castle', with a color scheme of silver, gold, and jewel tone. The problem is, I have limited space in my basement, where it will maily be, and we are also using my small kitchen and (if my mom allows us) the back deck(this can fit about 5 dancing couples at a time). Any ideas? I've got some, but i need a VERY cheap way to make it look like a castle.


p.s. any ideas for cheap finger food/elegant snacks?Does anyone have any ideas for a Halloween, 1700s era masked ball? (LOW budget!)?
Go to your local deli for finger snacks get some sliced meats chz and crackers. then go to your local hobby lobby or lobby store you can find paints and styrofoam and make your castle. It will be fun. Plus you might find other things at that store to help you out!Does anyone have any ideas for a Halloween, 1700s era masked ball? (LOW budget!)?
You can use a play Axe or sword to cut the cake.

Why would a man be into B&D of women, especially using ball gags, masks, bounding, etc.?

I need ideas on how to throw a masked ball. it needs to be magical, but cheap!?

25 minutes ago - 3 days left to answer.I need ideas on how to throw a masked ball. it needs to be magical, but cheap!?
This party theme is great!





Here are a few ideas:


Colored light bulbs (purple, blue, or pink) may make your party space dim and mystical. You could also get pink or light purple cellophane to cover the door, objects, and possibly walls, get iridescent/silver confetti (maybe stars)or garland, iridescent table clothes.





Check out these easy and classy appetizers you can make n the cheap: http://www.celebratewithstyle.com/site/DisplayArticle5MinApps





I am writing an article on teen parties and would love to have you contribute. Please send me an email (address in my profile) if you would be interested.





Thanks!I need ideas on how to throw a masked ball. it needs to be magical, but cheap!?
Ideas for cheap finger food:


Deviled eggs (you can make these look very fancy)


Cubed cheese and crackers


Cubed meats (like italian salami)


Fondue pot


Prosciutto wrapped melon slices (can't find prosciutto? Use any decent thin sliced and salted ham)


Cucumber sandwiches (sliced bread with crusts removed, butter or garlic herb spread with hothouse (seedless) cucumber slices) cut into triangles)


Champagne punch (or make with 7-up depending on the age of the participants)


Castle Theme:


Have you thought of paper mache? Cheap to make and paint.


Get cheap plastic swords toys at the dollar store. Make up a couple of broomstick horses and you have a 'joust' contest.


Used stuffed dragon animals for that 'maiden in distress' feel.


Make up a ';tower'; out of cardboard barrels (the kind used to pack dishware for moving) cut in half and fasten together with screws, a glue gun or duct tape. Put a rapunzel barbie doll in the top.
Just paper mashay


And add aluminum foil and then color black


Also bye flash lights from a dollar store and paint the light red and put it by the window to make it look like the window is glowing red. Just like a hounted castle
look at stumps.com (It's a prom and party supply place) It's not cheap like you're looking for but you may get some ideas there that you can translate to the dollar store

i guess if it isnt really formal you could wear jeans and a nice tee, and chuck a suit jacket over it. (suit jackets cheap at op shops, etc.





and maskes are easy to get, just at any party shop.
Try eBay.


That can be brilliant for fancy-dress I have bought loads from there and you can get cheap stuff.
