This is a fun theme for children's parties, and it gives them a great chance to dress up in various Disney costumes! You can tailor the event to a specific character (Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck) or even a favorite movie (Peter Pan, Mulan).

Get character specific decorations and party bags, and try to serve foods the characters eat in the shows or movies!

Casino Theme

For a fun night, especially for adults or teens, a casino themed party is perfect. Ask guests to dress up as if they were headed to a casino, and consider an award for the most creative outfit!

Consider setting up a few gambling tables, even if the prizes are tickets or candy. These tables are a great conversation piece, and a fun way to get guests talking and mingling.

Hollywood Theme
