Adult Party Theme Ideas

Adults enjoy a great party just as much as kids. While party “themes” are generally associated with children’s parties, incorporating a theme into an adult get together is just as much fun. The great thing about a theme party is that it can be held any month of the year, without any association to any upcoming holiday. A fun theme party can also easily open up conversation between the guests, which makes the party atmosphere very pleasant and friendly. Here are some fun ideas for party themes that adults can incorporate into their parties to make the gatherings very fun and festive affairs.

Ugly Sweater Party. Encourage your guests on the party invitations to wear the most hideous and ridiculous looking sweater they own. Think 1980’s Bill Cosby sweaters. Surely everyone has one or two loud and garish sweaters hanging at the back of their closet. This theme party is the time to bring them out and give them a chance to see the light of day! You can also indicate on the party invitation that a prize will be given to the attendee who wears the most ridiculous and hideous sweater. The prize can be a bottle of wine or a gift certificate to a local restaurant or shop.

Crazy Hat Party. Think about how much fun a party would be with all the guests wearing crazy and silly looking hats. The guests can dig out an old hat they already have, purchase one at the store or spend some time designing and creating a really outrageous looking hat with feathers, sequins, appliques or anything else their imaginations can come up with.

A Day At The Beach Party. A day at the beach party is a fun way to chase away the winter chill. Turn the heat up in your house and make several pitchers of margaritas and daiquiris. Bundle up a brave soul and send him or her out to the barbecue grill to cook hot dogs and hamburgers. Your guests don’t have to sit around in their bathing suits of course, but let them know that the party has a beach theme so they should feel free to wear floppy beach hats, Hawaiian shirts and board shorts. Decorate your party space with any summer themed decorations you have on hand and set your surf or boogie board up against a wall. A couple of galvanized tubs filled with sand for guests to wiggle their toes in is a nice touch.

Favorite Dead Celebrity. It doesn’t have to be October to host a fun costume party. Instruct your party guests to come to the party dressed as their favorite dead celebrity. The celebrity can be from any era and famous for any reason. Some prizes for Most Original Costume , Prettiest Celebrity and Most Obscure Celebrity can be given after secret votes are tallied.

Use any of these ideas or your own imagination to come up with a fun and festive party theme for your next adult gathering. A fun and festive theme is a wonderful way to ensure your party is a night to remember.
