Turning 18 is a great milestone - for the person who is becoming 18.  A "theme" party is a good idea, but most people don't care about decorations and themes, they care about who is attending, music, food and drink.  Since legal drinking is usually 21, free beer probably won't work.  Your best bet for a big gathering, is to have it somewhere other than your home or yard.  Have a party at a beach or a park.  Plan for food and drinks, which may be served with disposable ware.  (Cleaning up AFTER a huge group is HARD WORK).  If you can, put your money into a catering service and a band or a dj and have REALLY great music.  Make sure there is ample parking for all of your guests.  If you have your heart set on a theme, keep it easy and low cost.  Consider a TOGA party.  Have a contest for the best/most unusual toga costume and offer a nice prize like movie tickets, music cds, movie DVDs or a gift certificate for video games or a popular restaurant.  Games or activities sometimes work.  Try a limbo kind of game or perhaps a "sack" type of race.  Trying to get a large group of people involved is very difficult; so don't be disappointed if only a few of the partygoers participate.  If you can, have disposable cameras set all around for guests to use and encourage them to take pictures.  Have the photos printed and make sure you get the photos to any of the partygoers who show up in the photos.  Most people like that kind of stuff.  Good luck and Happy Birthday To You.
