decades
Did you and your friends grow your wild oats during the 1960s? Maybe it was the 80’s or another era in time. You can have a lot of fun throwing a decade-themed party. Your imagination is really the limit for this type of themed party, you can even choose a time period before you or your friends were born!
Hawaii
Sunny skies, warm beaches, and hula dancers are some of the things that come to mind when you think of a Hawaiian-themed party. Most of these adult parties will lean towards the luau style. Set up a tropical paradise with lots of bright colors, leis, fake palm trees, and grass skirt throughout! Popular drinks for a luau include mai tais, pina coladas, frozen daiquiris, and Bahama Mamas! Greet everyone with a flower lei and an aloha and we guarantee you’ll have a great time.
western
Can you say Yee Haw? How about Yahoo! Western themes are always a crowd favorite with blue jeans, cowboy boots, cowboy hats and western country music. You can have your own hoe in the backyard. Typical western food would include barbecue, baked beans, beer, and maybe even a few shots of bourbon.
movie themes
Do you and your friends have a favorite movie? Gone with the Wind, Lord of the Rings, and even some of the most popular horror movies are great fodder for an adult-themed party. Decorate in the style of your chosen gender, be it Deep South or Middle Earth, and offer food and drinks to match. Your friends will love the opportunity to dress up as their favorite character. A movie theme is also a great option for upcoming Halloween parties.
Magic
There’s a little bit of magic in everyone, and what could be more fun than a magical-themed adult party. Top hats, wands, and wizard wizard costumes are totally fun. If you wanted to go all out, you could hire a professional magician for entertainment.
vegas
What happens at your party stays at your party! (At least if it’s a Vegas-style affair, that should be the motto.) Decorate with large furry dice, black and red balloons, and provide green “felt” tables for games of blackjack and poker. Friendly gaming will be the underlying theme and your friends can come out in their most glamorous duds.
harvest theme
If you need a reason for a party, why not the change of seasons? A fall harvest party is a very popular option to ring in the cooler temperatures and celebrate the bright colors of the season. Leaf-shaped invitations, pumpkin and gourd decorations, and fall activities make for a wonderful party. Schedule a hayride, build a campfire, and pick apples.
International food
Do you like dishes from around the world? Create an international food themed party for adults. Your guests could dress up in traditional clothing from around the world and bring their favorite foreign dish. Catering for this type of party is also a great option.
mardi gras
Celebrate the spirit of Louisiana no matter where you live with a Mardi Gras-style party. Massive amounts of purple, green, and gold decorations are a must, as are skins and beads. Beat the winter blues with this adult-themed party favorite.
girls only
Want a night out with just the girls? Consider a slumber party, slumber party, or spa theme. Whether you’re young or young at heart, nothing beats a good old-fashioned sleepover with movies, games, popcorn, and ice cream! Pamper, share or cry over a good old fashioned chick flick with your girlfriends.
