Sssshhhh its a surprise, we get lots of these at Gourmet Caterers, it makes it a bit tricky, never call at home, when the other spouse can hear whats going on…what makes it more difficult is most people have it in their homes. We did a surprise 21st birthday for a guy who was a gun enthusiast, his parents and girlfriend gave him the party in their home. They had to make sure he was out for the whole day. It was a huge BBQ for 150 guests with Beef ribs, lamb chops, chicken pieces, and steaks. The beer was flowing as well as the food, boy do these young chaps eat. We did garlic bread, and four exciting salads with the meal. The appetizers were spicy chicken wings served with ranch and vegetables and dips. Dessert was a chocolate fountain with all the trimmings of fruit, marshmellows, ice-cream etc.
This is how it went down. The whole house was in darkness, everyone parked their cars a block away, and when the came past home just to have a drink before supposedly going out to a restaurant and turned on the lights, everyone shouted surprise, it really was this time, a huge surprise, he had no idea, he stood in shock, he even started shaking, then had a beer and all was good after that. The Birthday cake was in the shape of a gun, and the decor was guns everywhere. They had a great live band, also recommended by Gourmet Caterers. It was such a successful surprise party, everyone had the best time.
