Planning a 50’s sock hop is something that can be a lot of fun from the moment you start planning the event. Using dates in history to go through and plan a party, or other event is one of the easiest ways to get in there and throw a great school dance, basement party, or other social event. Having a sock hop is something that can get the older generation involved in as well. Finding the facts, ask the elders questions about what it I was like to grow up in the 50’s, get accurate decoration information as well. This is the opportunity to show the newer generation what real music was, how dance offs first originated and so much more. Sock hops are a big part of our American history.
Planning a 50’s sock hop with the facts up front will allow you to go through and set up a budget, see what you will be spending, find décor. There are some great 50’s style streamers and table clothes out there at yard sales and other thrift store locations. When you are looking for party supplies remember the 50’s were all about records and happy or acapella music, and when you send out your invitations add a fun spin to the event and ask that couples come dressed in costume as famous couples during that particular era, or in 50’s clothing. So get ready to get down and have some fun at the hop, your 50’s style sock hop.
