Rent out Paisley park.

I did that when I turned 40 last August. I live in a small town in New Jersey (USA), so I rented a Community Center and decorated it myself.
- I bought all purple tablecloths and decorations, I put up posters and pictures from my own collection, including my "Diamonds & Pearls" cutout I bought from a record store.
- Each table had a bowl of Tootsie Pops ("...pimp rag, Tootsie pop and a cane...") with a picture of Prince sucking on a lollipop in it.
- Each table also had a different affiliate's pic on it, instead of a number in a holder.
- I hired a sound system and hooked my iPod up to it; my Prince/affiliate collection is big enough to keep the music going all night.
- I also had a recipe for raspberry champagne punch and called it "Raspberry Beret Punch" and had it pouring from a fountain.

Oh! it was a costume party. My guests had to come as either a person in Prince's life, a "theme", or a song title. One rule: no one was allowed to come as "Purple Rain" Prince (to cliche).

We had a ball!
U don't have to spend a lot of money with some creativity...
