Make a Decision from Your Different Group Costume Ideas

When you are trying to come up with group costume ideas for Halloween it is very important that everyone in the group is on the same page. Sometimes it is very hard to come to an agreement on the theme for the costumes, since different people will usually have different ideas. Try and come up with some sort of understanding that leaves everyone happy with the decision.

There is no way that the entire group will be happy with a decision if some of the people didn't get a chance to express how they feel about the costumes in general. That means that in order to be successful you have to allow everyone to talk about costume themes that they like and explain why.

When you have let everyone have their say you can confidently decide on the costume theme that will be adopted by the group as a group. That means voting on the costumes or finding another way to pick them out with the group together so that everyone feels like their idea had a fair shot.

Although going through this set of steps is going to take more time than simply picking an idea right away it should make more people feel good about the final decision. If there is someone who is still upset do your best as a group to explain about the decision and why it was preferred.

Voting might not be enough to pick out a costume if one of the themes has the same number of votes as another theme. In that case you will either have to flip a coin to break the tie, or try to convert one of the people from one decision to another. The coin works well because it is an argument free way of solving the problem quickly.

With all of that work out of the way the fun of costume planning can begin and you can start enjoying yourselves. While you are dreaming up your own costume make sure that you let other people in on it to prevent duplicates of costumes within your group unless you want duplicates because they go with the theme of the costume.

When you work on costumes as a group it makes it easier to come up with the materials that you need for the costumes so that you do not have to buy quite as much from stores. That means that you can borrow different items between one another and save each other time and money on designing and creating the different costumes.

One of the most challenging parts of group costume ideas is deciding on the best one as a team. These steps simplify this process dramatically but that does not mean that you won't have your issues throughout the process. Remain patient and work through it and you will end up with a good set of costumes.

Group costume ideas are difficult to agree on but with the above steps you should have no problem working out your differences and coming up with excellent costumes for everyone in the group.
