Turn the lights off to party! 

I had initially heard of dark parties when Entourage star, Adrian Grenier, was blogged about for hosting the “no distraction, no light” get-togethers as an attempt to conserve energy and redirect the party fun towards each other. I chuckled at the kumbayaness of it but now I realize that it actually is the best way to party! Not only are you saving on high electricity bills that come from keeping your lights on all night, but it also presents the opportunity for people to connect with one another instead of electronics. And let loose in the dark!

Dark parties range from glow parties to dinner parties set up for singles to mingle in the shadows instead of the light, breaking the mold of the mainstream dating scene into a less is more mentality. All of those distractions that catch your eye and eventually your attention are gone. At a dark party, it’s all about embracing your fellow party goers instead of losing them in the environment!

I thought that dark parties only took place around Earth Hour but it seems like the trend has spread way beyond its aim to conserve energy to conserving chemistry! Host the next dark party and you’ll see that it doesn’t always take electricity to heat up a room!

    The most obvious need is to take our first step towards the implementation as it is also the problem that people makes long speeches in their life but do nothing in practical term.
