19TH b-day college THEME party!?

Question

ok so Im turning 19 this summer, and before everyone heads home for break I wanna throw a huge birthday party at me and my brothers house right near campus! All of our friends usually throw awesome theme parties...including: stereotype party, twin party, 50s party, classy dress up style, etc, etc.

I really want to throw a killer good theme party and I have some ideas but I want something thats really gonna make the night. I was thinking like a mandatory color wearing one, like a black and white party and have really cool decorations...or a "neon nineteenth" where everyone wears neon colors and again Ide have some insane decorations..and I already have an outfit planned hahaha. Im just not sure what theme party I should have. Im not really into the usual "mardi gras" or "ceo and hoes" themes cause I find them pretty corny and boring. Oh and this is going to be a dance party....can anyone help?!

THANKS! :]

Answer 1

Hollywood or red carpet is always an amazing theme. Cute little cocktail dresses, stilettos, great jewelry, fashionable sunglasses.  It gives people a chance to dress like ballers when they usually wouldn't.

Also, depending on what kind of dancing you like, a Cuban or Mohito party would be amazing.  Great theme for food and mohitos for drinks.  You could use an assortment of Afro-Cuban music.  Basically, think Black Eyed Peas, Shakira, etc. Check out the soundtrack to Dirty Dancing Havanah Nights. People could dress in 1950s Cuban inspired clothing.  Sort of celebrating Cuba when it was a really happening place.  I've been to a party like this before and it was a huge hit. Good Luck!

Answer 2

mardi gra would be cool or a Hawaiian

Answer 3

how about a Beatles theme and play off or get ideas from different songs like Strawberry Fields, Yellow Sumbarine, I Am the Walrus, Honey Pie . . . ?

Answer 4

how bout a peroxide and spray on tan party: spray peroxide on hair and spray tan everyone, I actually went to one. I woke up orange and blonde hair, had a ball!

toga? no? corny, but, everyone looks good in a Toga, greek food, a greek bath, lots of grapes, take it a step further.  Class it up a bit.

Island/shipwreck theme: think survivor games, outfits, food: rice, and rewards for games.

Drag night!  Get the local g*y bar involved(oh come on, grow up..) , get a few local drag queens to host a drag bingo! Never been? oh, you should go , they are real fun. Everyone dresses in drag, guys in dresses, women in suits! its hilarious!  yeah, you may have to toss the drag queens some hundreds, but, you ll have a blast!! Have some extra wigs and thngs lying about for your guests who are too chicken, when they see everyone else doing it, they will too.

Hope it turns out well for ya!! Have fun!!

Answer 5

How about a masquerade ? or dress up as a stupid character party

Answer 6

Western, Luau, 70's or 80's, Mardi Gras, Rock and roll, Asian, Fiesta, Casino

What makes it more fun if you can not only incorporate the decoration but also the food...i.e. asian theme you could serve egg rolls, shrimp fried rice, fortune cookies etc...
