What is a Murder Mystery Dinner Party?

We do them once a month normally around the third Saturday. Sometimes we change the date because of other events taking place. We also do extra Murder Mystery Luncheons or Dinners for groups like Church's, reunions, groups of friends and company employee parties. We try to do the private parties on Friday the same weekend as Saturday Murder Mystery Luncheons or Dinners but will do other them other dates. A group needs to be at least eight and a small group like that everyone must take a part.

 Our Murder Mystery Dinners start at 6:30 with a meet and greet with appetizers and hors d’oeuvres. This time is also used to find eight of the guests to take parts and purchase drinks. About 7:00 we move in to the main dinning room and start with a hors d’oeuvre during this time people with parts read/tell about the person they are playing. Then after soup they do act I, salad act II and etc. during dessert all the dinner guest try and solve the mystery. They last about three hours but some people stay a while and visit with new friends that they have met or with our over night guests.
