(NAPSI) - In response to the economy, many families are opting for "Backyard Getaways"--fabulous parties thrown at home, as opposed to leaving town for lavish vacations.

Party City has partnered with celebrity event designer Samantha Goldberg to help inspire party planners with savvy and budget-friendly tips for the ultimate Backyard Getaway.

• Sunset Movie Night--Relive the magic of a drive-in theater by simply renting a projector, hanging a large white sheet, and serving movie popcorn in vintage popcorn boxes to complete this outdoor cinematic experience.

• House of Sweets Cupcake Party--Delight guests young and old with showstopper, gourmet cupcakes specially crafted from the Duff Goldman collection of baking products and then artfully displayed in elegant cupcake stands.

• Luau Paradise Party--Create a delightfully tropical oasis at your next poolside gathering with bamboo garden torches, floral leis, tiki coconut candles and luau limbo games.

• Lobster Boil--Bring the charm of the New England seashore right to your doorstep by using custom lobster invitations and nautical-inspired stripes and solids in your tableware.

• Neighborhood Carnival and Games--Invite your neighbors and friends over for a spirited and playful carnival bash full of novelty candy favors, face-painting booths and classic carnival games such as Party City's Can Toss, Inflatable Tic-Tac-Toe, and Egg Relay Race.

Just about everything from customizable tableware and vibrant invitations to eye-catching decorations and novelty party favors can be found at the more than 600 company-owned and franchise Party City stores throughout the United States.
