Looking to throw a pirate party for some friends. Where can I find supplies that aren't for kids? My friend and I are bridesmaids for a wedding between two people we have both known since we were kids. We are throwing a party for them at a local science-fiction and fantasy convention where the theme of the party is Pirate King and his Wench. Trust me, it makes sense for them.
However, when I look at Party City and other places, I mostly see pirate stuff for little kid parties. Any idea where we can find stores in Chicago that will sell items for a more 21+ type of event?

Try a prop rental service like Zap Props http://zapprops.com/ or Chicago Props http://chicago-props.com. If there's enough time between now and the party, you could also contact the drama departments at local universities and community colleges to see if they'd be willing to work on something for you.
