Again, the key is to use the theme as the basis for the food, decor, music, etc.--and to have fun with it! The advantage of these types of parties is that they can be easier to plan as the food, decor, and music go with the overall theme.
More themes for summer parties:
- Mexican/margarita madness
- 1960s or Mad Men
- 1970s
- Cajun
- Ethnic (Indian, Moroccan, Thai, etc.)
- TV shows (classic or recent)
- Game shows
- Movies (classic or recent)
- Western
- Las Vegas
- Sci Fi
- Highway 101/Pacific Coast 1 in California (Napa, San Francisco, Santa Barbara, LA)
- Locations like Paris, Rome, or NYC in the summer
An easy way to work out the details of a theme party is to make headings--on paper or computer--for each of the elements: Food, Decor, Music, Beverages (and anything else like party favors that you might want to include). Then under each heading list your ideas--or see where you need to come up with ideas!
Possibly you'll also see that some theme parties are easier than others to pull off, and with the headings this is easier to see--like if you can't think of enough ideas for each major heading. If so, choose another theme. And if you're really stuck, ask friends for their ideas! You'll be surprised how many good ideas others have.
Warmly,
