On arrival in the courtyard where the carriages pull up, there will be a 'gypsy' band playing and girls dancing for atmosphere, tents, fire breathers and jugglers
Inside the room is festooned in purples, yellows, and turquoise, with sunburst and tarot-style symbols- This sort of aesthetic . The room has been made up to look like a circus tent.
There is a tarot reader in a corner, acrobats and trapeze artists swinging overhead.
A smaller area of the dance floor is full of enchanted funhouse mirrors where the reflections make faces and look even odder than 'normal'
There are a number of small 'pranks' - things like 'kick me', 'kiss me', 'pinch me', etc appearing on peoples backs, fans when unfurled will suddenly be full of glitter, flowers in the floral arrangements which will squirt small amounts of water at passersby, gentlemen boutonares will turn into weeds.
Each person will be touched by 1-2 pranks during the evening - If Ginny has strong feelings about you, you might be subject to a few more pranks than average.
The finger food is all enchanted to taste like something else- bertie botts style. The champagne punch will taste of a new flavour with each sip, and has a slight euphoria spell on it, not incredibly noticeable unless you are eating huge quantities but people will feel a little more merry.
There are house elves dressed as motley fools scattered about who can be asked to prank people, the pranks can't be dangerous or cruel - but a persuasive talker might be able to convince an elf.
