Smart homes can make coffee, but do they know how to party? Yes, and no. You can set up a system like this one, which starts a barnburner at the cry “Alexa, let’s party,” but making the connections among bulbs, speakers, and virtual assistants takes some doing. Banding your gadgets together into a raucous gang of party animals requires using the app If This Then That (IFTTT) as glue. Once that’s done, you’re ready to rage on.

And if you want to upgrade your home’s entertainment system, you might want to consult professional A/V Company services for the latest trends on audio visual technologies. If any of your home appliances start malfunctioning, you may need to call on an appliance repair technician.

1. The host

Amazon’s Alexa-enabled Echo Dot hears your rallying cry and sends the signal to the rest of its party people—er, gadgets. Using IFTTT, your initial voice command can also tweet out the invite to friends and order pizza to keep ‘em fed.

2. The party planner

Alexa relays the shindig-starting message to the Logitech Harmony Hub, which connects to all your devices—from appliances to home theaters—via Wi-Fi. The console is what gets your lights in sync with your speakers, and so on.

3. The mood setter

In party mode, the LIFX bulbs cycle through 16 million colors in a pattern that makes your living room look like a Daft Punk concert. An end-of-night action called “party’s over” can reset the lights to max brightness and whiteness.

4. The DJ

Spread out as many as 32 Sonos One Wi-Fi speakers, and they’ll create a mesh network that kicks out jams in every room. The smartphone-controlled gadgets are also Alexa-friendly, so you can shout to skip a track mid flip-cup battle.

5. The entertainment

Smart fog machines aren’t a thing (yet!), but the D-Link Wi-Fi Plug can fill in. Hooked into an outlet, the socket controls the flow of electricity to whatever it powers. Turn on a bubble machine—or a fan for when it’s “getting hot in herre.”

And if you want to create a party your guests will remember fondly for years to come, the good news is that you can hire an arcade game rental for you and your friends to enjoy.
