Add extra color to your pool deck with some of the below decorations:
▢ Source Food & Drink:
Search for a local Hawaiian catering shop through Google or Yelp - or ask your residents where they get their favorite luau food through a poll on Cobu!
Food options include:
Poké bowls
Pulled pork sandwiches
Spam musubi
Pig roast
Grilled fruit skewers
Shaved ice
Alternatively, a site like ezCater can be used to order and schedule a food delivery during your preferred time window.
Order drinks through a delivery service like Uber Eats or source them through the local beverage store. Estimate 2 alcoholic drinks per attendee and ensure you have non-alcoholic options available as well.
▢ Set Up the Event:
Set up long food & drink tables near your pool area. Drape the tables in tablecloths, if available.
Set up plates, utensils, and napkins on one end of the table so residents can get their supplies before filling their plates.
Set up a table exclusively for drinks. Offer a simple variety of drinks (soft drinks, water, beer, and wine) in icy tubs.
Ensure you have multiple trash and recycling receptacles available throughout the common space.
Set up a bluetooth speaker to play Hawaiian music or have residents contribute to a shared playlist on a service like Spotify.
