Ideas for ten year class reunion "Party like it's 1999" reunion theme

Question

I am in the process of planning my ten year class reunion for my high school. We graduated in 1999 - so we are thinking of using the "Party like it's 1999" theme. Do you have any cool ideas of what can go along with this theme? Decorations, name tags, food, etc?

Thanks :)

Hi, Pinkie!  What a cool year to have graduated from high school!  I don't have a decorating idea, but a suggestion stemming from my own 10-year class reunion.  KEEP THE MUSIC LEVEL & DANCING TO A MINIMUM!  My reunion was fun until the DJ started up.  Some people danced, but most were interested in visiting and catching up with old friends.  It was way too hard to talk over the loud music!  People ended up congregating as far from the dance floor as they could get.  When that wasn't enough, most left the reunion altogether and met up in groups at different area restaurants where they could reunite with old friends without screaming in a dark, pulsing room.  The same thing had happened at my husband's reunion a few years before.  UGH!  So keep that in mind when hiring entertainment! :)

Music: Eminem, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Ricky Martin, Westlife, Robbie Williams, S Club 7, Steps, Korn, Limp Bizkit. Get a NOW that's what i call music 1999 album.

Films: Fight club, Matrix, Lockstock, The Phantom Menace, Blair Witch Project. You could get big posters of the films and hang them up for decoration.

Pokemon, Ali G were big in 1999.

Food from 1990: Nutrigrain, Cheese crust pizza, pop tarts, Red Bull, Clear pepsi, Cadbury's fuse, Boddingtons, Hooch, Reef, Push pops, chomps.

That's all I can think of hope it helps and you have a great party!

I'd just start thinking back to what was popular then..what were the cool sayings, tv shows, who won the superbowl that year, etc. I would use tons of popculture reference from that year.
