19th Halloween Erotica Ball First Timers to a Desirous Party. Tips please!

My advice will be a lot different than most. As I created this event and have been in and around the Lifestyle since 1997. Best advice I can give someone whether they are new to the scene or been to a lot of Lifestyle events. Would be to enjoy the moment. Enjoy the moment but at these hotel takeovers do not camp out in one spot. Three stages, large foyer, 300 plus rooms on multiple floors etc... Move around, see and enjoy it all. 

As far as the playrooms. We let guests handle that as the majority of our crowd like to host their own after parties. Whether its a private invite and or a floor party. 

Also as for as the QnA. Its geared toward people whom have not attended one of our hotel takeovers. Whether you are new to the scene or a veteran of lifestyle club events. It answers alot of first time event questions as we run Halloween, NYE and Purgatory off this hotel takeover format. 

I was actually hoping to get a bit of a chat going. A lot of events will have a FB group or chat platform in use so people can sort of intro themselves and get to know each other a bit before the event. Can I use this forum like that? Is there a different space/platform I might use for that? 

Cheers. 

There is a QnA here in the Halloween party forum. Definitey read that. Plus check out the previous years videos and party photos. Gives you a great idea on what to expect. The event grows larger each year as so many new people come and experience it for the first time. I say this as many assume all 1k plus know each other already. So mix and mingle, say hi and before you know it you will get to know alot of new faces. But basically come ready to party and experience an event like none other. 

We're not new to the the LS but this will be our first Desirous Party and first hotel takeover. We tried to go last year and life got in the way. Unfortunately, we'd already bought our tickets so they were wasted. But not this year! We are ready to go! 

We're staying at the main takeover hotel and can't wait to get into costume and check everything out. 

I was wondering if there are any tips for making the most of the event? Are there things you've learned you wish you knew going in the first time? 

Also, are there play spaces set up or is it just in peoples rooms? 
 

Thanks in advance.
