I have to decorate a table at a banquet 2 weeks from now, the theme is "Best Friends" and I need help. I am brain dead due to Easter stuff and can't think of a thing.

Right now, I have the idea of printing up pictures of famous best friends and decorating the table with that, but I can't think of any..........

I have

Batman and Robin (not really "friends" but you know)
Woody, and Buzz Lightyear


I can't think of non-cartoon best friends. HELP!!!!!!!!

oh, and I have to have like "hostess presents" for the guests at my table that have to tie into the theme.

yeah, help.

Holmes and Watson
Laural and Hardy
Abbot and Costello
etc. etc. etc.

Maybe do a friend's matching game where you have to go find your best friend?

Eric Cartman and Kenny McCormick.

What is this for? Is it like "aww how cute" or "that is quite lovely"?

okay, it's for a banquet at church, and everyone is pretty serious with their tables, my friend and I decided to do something quirky and cheesy just to be silly, so we decided (a month ago) that our theme would be "best friends forever" kinda with a junior high feel you know with the broken heart that says "best" on one side and "friends" on the other, but we can't find those anymore so we slightly tweaked our theme to be "best friends" so we are looking for ideas to go with that general theme.

also, we need to figure out a center peice.

Rumor has it that Achilles and Patroculus were fairly fond of each other.

Dude, do the Disciples, and Angel Gabriel giving Jesus some skin.

And here I thought *I* was one of your "best friends!" I even have a certain bit of fame too. Or is that "infamous?" I forget. ;)

BTW ... loved your singing! :fluffle:

Damn I would rather not think about best friends right now

*thinks*

Why not.. em.. for the center piece.. just get a bunch flowers and then have those pics you were thinking of going around them in a bunch of different sized frames.

Then on the plates you could print off lil poems about bestfriends or make little diary entries about how you (well.. your 12 year old self..) just went to the movies or something with your best friend... maybe make lil heart cookies and write "best friends" on em and then break em in half and put one plate and then put the other on another and have the people sitting at the table match em up.

Lotsa pink and purple.. and glitter..

*grows his balls back*

I hope things get better for you soon, and remember what goes around comes around, so you know watch out for that if you are ever hanging out with them again (don't want to get caught in the cross fire)

While it was a pathetic episode, southparks idea of the "super best friends" might be a nice one; especially if this banquet is held in a place of worship. Get Jesus, Mohammed, Buddha, Krishna, Joseph Smith, Lao Tsu and Moses [1]holding hands, and promote religious tolerance and acceptance.

[1] I recommend not including Sea-man.

The most famous and important best friends I can think of are David and Jonathan. You're a bible-thumper, Smunkee, you should know this!!

Laverne and Shirley. :)

Sorry if any of these repeat:

Malcolm and Stevie
Norm and Cliff
Alex P. and Skippy
Theo and Cockroach!
Kirk and Spock
Michael Knight and Kitt
Bo and Luke (brothers, I know, or cousins or something) :)

How about the Beaver and Larry?

Gotta be Bert and Ernie
Bert and Ernie! :)

Damn, I had a few (Kermit and Miss Piggy, Donald and Daisy, Mickey and Minnie, Caesar and Cleopatra...) but they're all couples, not best friends, hm.

Stan and Ollie?


Ack, I give up, I'm culturally challenged on this one (I keep thinking Asterix and Obelix, and Pippi Longstocking and Annika... :p).

Rocky and bullwinkle ( I know I can't spell)

Rocky and bullwinkle ( I know I can't spell)
know what the best part is? you spelled it correctly:)

and they will all be in silver "best friends" picture frames that my guests get to keep. I have a black table cloth, and was looking into getting that shaped confetti to sprinkle on the top, I just need a few more hostess gifts and a center peice.

I was thinking of maybe an address book and stationary set (so that you could keep up with your friends, and also write them letters?)

There doesn't appear to be many male best friends there.. I don't have many suggestions though, but if there are quite a few guys coming, they might relate better to that lol.

I might have failed to mention that it's a banquet for ladies. I am trying to find a pic to use instead of Abbot and Costello, I think I might give in and do Minnie Mouse and Daisy, just to have more females.

okay, so the banquet was last nght, thought I would post a pic of my table, and also some of the others around.
