Ideas for a Pirate Themed Party
A pirate’s life is the best life! And because we can’t live it, we’re going to try to recreate it by hosting a pirate party. If it’s summer, all the better – you can hold it in swimming pool, or by the sea. And if there’s a boat in the middle, great! A pirate party is one of our favourite theme ideas!
For this, you’ll need some excellent pirate fancy-dress costumes. We’ve got some great ideas for dressing up as a pirate, with costumes for both kids and adults.
Now you’ve sorted your wardrobe, we’ll give you some tips on how to decorate the space a little. You can do it with just a few pirate party decorations, like palm trees, ships’ wheels, pirate flags, or parrots.
An Authentic Hawaiian Party
Following on from summer events, we’ve got a few more ideas for theme parties …What about a Hawaiian themed pool party? You’ll serve cocktails with crazy straws, dress in a Hawaiian hula skirt and flower headdress, and wander around in a bikini all day.
Let’s start with the outfit. Hawaiian dress is very distinctive and basically consists of flowers, grass skirts, shells, and, for the men, light shirts.
You could opt for a more basic Hawaiian costume, with a skirt and bra, or flower top, with some added accessories. This is a theme party idea that won’t disappoint…🙂
For the guys, the main thing is the straw hat with flowers, and a very loud shirt!
As well as Hawaiian fancy-dress costumes, we’ll give you a few ideas on how to set up your party, thinking about Hawaiian decorations.
To welcome your guests there’s nothing better than a typical Hawaiian greeting: Aloha!
Drink cocktails from a coconut cup with straws decorated with flowers.
If you’re going to put out some nibbles, you could also decorate the table with a Hawaiian style tablecloth.
