A Little Party Never Hurt Nobody

And as the song goes... a little party certainly never hurt nobody!

With this Great Gatsby motto in mind I decided to celebrate my housewarming with a Murder Mystery Party - Great Gatsby theme.

I mean who doesn't love the 1920's and what a perfect time to celebrate the roaring 20's then in the 2020's era :)

I must say organising a murder mystery dinner party isn't for the faint hearted - you need to plan, organise and plan a little more but it's truly a wonderful idea if you wish to celebrate in a more intimate and fun way. Plus all your friends get to dress up and step into character which is so fun!
