help me organize a rave party

So I'm planning to do a rave in the woods next saturday.
Nothing exceptional as it's the first time me and some friends organize this kind of thing, so i really need some good suggestions from you.
we booked a big house in the woods just out of my town so we have some kind of permission paper if them piiiigs show out. So they won't be able to take our stuff away.
my best idea so far is to use XMAS lights and place them everywhere. Those colorful blinking lights should be mind-blowing in the forest at night. 
Then I'll try to make sure everybody can get some weed. And I'll ask a friend of mine to bring some MDMA also.
It won't be huge so there will be only familiar faces or friends of friends at most, so drugs will be shared more than sold.
I may also be able to bring a projector and play some trippy videos, so suggest me some videos too!
SO PLEASE, ADVICES ARE VERY WELCOME !!!

WHAT DO YOU THINK IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY ???
WHAT WOULD YOU LOVE TO HAVE AT A PARTY IN THE WOODS ???

Tanks, kegs, and trashbags full of shrooms.
Electricity, DJ's, and a dance floor.
Fog machine, wooded forest, and lasers.
Costumes, masks, and friendly guests.

we have Electricity, a couple DJs available, not that we really need them, I personally would be fine with a kickass playlist too.
we're gonna use as many speakers as we can find. We have 4 big ones so far. (they are loud enough)
I want psytrance to be played, and we all agree that it's overall the perfect choice, but they are not psytrance-DJs (I mean I'm not sure they can play that shit) and some guys kinda want different music also so I guess it's gonna be quite a compromise. A lil bit of reggae at the beginning, some drum'n'bass, tekno... my hope is psytrance will be by far the main muzak. 
OV COURSE we're gonna flood the place with as many horny bitches as we can! 
too bad we got no fog machine, nor lasers.

Strobes are cool, how they can chop up your vision into frames....But man they fuck with my head and disorient me especially with something like LSD in my system I feel like I'm completely sideways.
But to the OP....My main concerns would be a quality sound system, and the atmosphere. If done properly, a lot can be done with just a few strands of X-mas lights, a strobe or two, and black lights. It doesn't take much.....
As far as "the man" trying to break up your party....So as long as it's considered a "private party" on private property, is out in the cuts far away from anyone that's going to hear the music and you're not violating any sound ordinances you should be fine....If for some reason the cops do show up, don't let them inside, step outside and discuss things there.

I don't understand how the most important thing hasn't been brought up: GOOD speakers and BOMB music. All the lights and everything else people mentioned are great too, but without the tunes, your party ain't going nowhere.
What kind of music were you thinking? Some dubstep? House? Trance? What we talking about here.

Quality sound is always my #1 concern.....
.....People will be amazed at how many more people will be giggin' and dancing with quality sound versus mediocre sound. You can rent out decent sound systems for relatively cheap.

And remember: it's not ALL about bass. I hate parties where the music is completely washed out because some douchenozzle cranked the "bass" knob on the receiver as high as it will go. Quality sound, quality music, quality rave.
Sounds like fun..

in addition to that, if the house has a private drive make sure that it is gated/blocked and locked.

yo bro. glad you asked. everyone gave good ideas.
Now im going to write this out. I took the time so you take the time and listen to me.
First off like everyone was saying. Music is the most important thing. Everything else follows. I have thrown parties in the forest, house parties, rave house parties and rave forest parties.
1.)music is #1.
Im glad you like psytrance, thats cool stuff. But you have to look out for everyone else. If your going to do some playlist or have a dj. You need to have a rotation of house, trance, psytrance, dubstep and DnB. When you do this, make sure you have some popular up beat songs, not just what you like. It has to sounds sick, so keep your preferences to yourself...unless ofcourse your good with that kinda stuff. You really should be looking more into hard house, dubstep and psytrance, those are more upbeats.
2.) setting
Strobe will be your #1 light. just because it chops and screws and its cheap. After that a fogger would work. But since your in the forest that is pointless. so forget about the fogger.
This light

I found that light at spencers 2 years ago. It lights up an entire room with green dots that move around. Its incredily trippy. and everyone loves seeing it. It cost me $90 at the time. but is well worth it. it can be seen from an incredible distance. that light alone can make a party.
christmas lights work. But if you set them up. set them up around the place... Meaning dont set them up lighting up the dance floor. People like it a little dark when dancing...
You also need to make sure you get a table or 2. where people can set down drinks or whatever if your drinking. Chairs would also help. make sure a large area is cleared of debri
Fire: this would be cool, but your rave will suffer because of it. people will be standing around it and it will prob be too bright.
Drugs: i suggest if this is a rave party that you do not supply alcohol and let people know that. You dont want alot of people drunk. On top of this i think it would be in your best interest for your dealer to have alot of "legit" extacy. That way your party doesnt get screwed, in fact id make sure you better have X there even if you have to buy a batch to re sell for the same price...
Supplies: bring out at least 10 gallons of water.and cups. people never think of this. do it and be the party hero. Also buy some vics vape inhalers if you have the money so people can fuck around with that.
ill think of something else and repost. i know im missing something.

Did think of some things....
Invite any raver possible. They always make a rave, a rave. Hopefully they are light show goers.
have 2 strobes at least. 1 is not enough. you want them facing 2 sides. at different intervals for the epic trip effect. they will make your party.
bring some damn food just incase. a cheap batch of bannanas and a loaf of bread will help a great deal.
Also i know what kinda songs you should be playing. I was gonna give you some examples. Ive been to too many parties where people played music guys guys liked it. You want music where the girls will get down. you hear? and i know exactly what you should be playing.

Good sound system, good music (preferably psytrance ). Trippy lights/decorations. Lots of good friends/chill people.
