The Coconut Messenger; An Original Hawaiian Luau Invitation
Part of the fun when throwing a party is sending out the invitations and the anticipation of a great response. You will often find the more creative and interactive the invitation the more excited the guests will be. A well planned and thoughtful invitation tells the guests you are putting together an equally well thought out party to match and they will really want to be there.
There are many exciting ways to invite guests to a Hawaiian Luau, but here is one I think is quite original, I call it ‘The Coconut Messenger’. Now this one takes a bit of effort, and depending on where you live could also be a bit expensive, but they are certainly worth the extra effort if you want to impress on your guests how cool your Hawaiian Luau is going to be.
The idea is to deliver a whole coconut shell to your guests which must be opened to reveal the invitation hidden inside, the fun is in the opening of the coconut which can be quite a challenge if you don’t know how.
You will need:
- As many coconuts as you have guests
- Coloured paper for the invitation
- Card stock or paper for the instructions
- Rafia or twine
- A screw driver, corkscrew or hammer and nail
- Laminating machine if possible
First let’s make the invite, keep it simple such as a handwritten note, or printed paper using a cool font. Parchment would add a nice touch too.
Once you have created the invitation if you have a laminating machine handy then laminate it as this will protect it, but if not just roll the invite into a tight scroll and wrap in plastic wrap ready to be inserted into the fresh coconut.
Usually a coconut is opened simply by giving it one hard knock in the exact right spot, at which time the coconut simply falls apart into two almost perfect halves. But for the purpose of this exercise we will need to drain the coconut water first as we are going to insert the invitation into the coconut and deliver it unopened.
To drain the water you will need to open one of the eyes, the three spot found on one end of the coconut. You can do this using a hammer and clean nail, a screw-driver or corkscrew. Make sure one of the eyes is opened wide enough for you to insert the invitation scroll.
Now place the coconut over a glass and allow the water to drain, to make it drain faster you can make a hole in the tail end too. Now let the kids drink the water, it is delicious and good for you, and is nice when chilled. When you are satisfied the coconut has been drained long enough you can insert the invitation.
Now for the tricky part, opening the coconut:
Now, being married to a pacific islander gives me the benefit of knowing the secrets to opening a coconut with out sending shards of shell flying in all directions, but this is still a job for grown ups okay.
Your guests will need instructions on cracking open the coconut, after all, opening a coconut when you don’t know how can be a tad difficult, so your instructions could read like this:
I am the Coconut Messenger! I have two eyes, a mouth and a tail, and, I have a message inside…Open me!
Hold me in your hand with your thumb on my mouth and my tail facing the tip of your fingers…turn me around till you find my back, an obvious line. Now give me a good hard whack right on my back with a hammer and I will open to reveal my message to you!
Attach the note to the coconut with a piece of twine or raffia and leave on their doorstep. Fun huh!

Im looking for the name of a game… first that tells me gets 10 points!?
ok so i was playing a game last week and forgot to save it to my favorites… my cookies have since then been deleted as well as my history…
the game is like dinner dash but has to deal with getting people their drinks…. there is a glass cutter, popcorn machine and a little parrot that can help you with serving drinks if you get into a jam… you can upgrade sandals and all the other machines…. anyone know what im talking about??
it has a tropical theme on the first wave and the second is a desert…. there are like 12 or 14 levels on each wave…???
nope… it only deals with giving people drinks… nothing else but popcorn to extend the time that they will stand there…
check out bigfish.com and you may find your game there.
hope this helps
