What are 'bed parties,' and why are parents like 'Real Housewife' Heather Dubrow throwing them?
Briefly

Heather Dubrow, a star from 'Real Housewives,' embraced the trend of 'bed parties' to celebrate her children's college acceptances. Originating in the South during the Covid pandemic, bed parties became a way for parents to celebrate their kids without large gatherings. In 2022, as her twins received college acceptances after a challenging year for seniors, Dubrow decorated their beds in school colors and added merchandise, showcasing a creative way to celebrate life's moments with family and fun decor.

2022 was an especially tough year for high school seniors because of a post-pandemic backlog of applicants. So when I saw bed parties, I was like, ‘OK, I’m in.’
The plan was to, obviously, start with merch from the school and use the school colors. I ordered sweatshirts, banners, pennants, a blanket and a stuffed animal.
