Top Hawaiian Party Theme Ideas
A Hawaiian party theme, or Luau party should have a surf shack or beach bar as its centre piece. For best effect you would hold your party on the beach on a hot sunny day, but you could also hold it in the local park or in your back garden.
The Hawaiian party theme is all about singing, dancing and eating lovely food.
Dressing up is essential and the ladies will look fantastic in grass skirts, floral arm bands, a lei necklace, flowers in their hair and even a coconut bra as an added optional.
The men don’t have it as good with the costume Im afraid. Most guys already have an awful Hawaiian print shirt in their wardrobe, get some matching shorts, some sandals and you’re set. I would though top it off with sunglasses, and floral necklace.
For fun and for your setting, I would consider some or all of the following ideas; hula hoops (have a contest to see who can hula the longest), beach balls and net, limbo stick (great for when everybody is drunk) and take care to scatter sea shells and coconuts around your venue for effect.
For food, I would create a tropical fruit centre piece. Nicely cut up melon, banana, peach, grapes, cherries, mangos and oranges and place them all in separate bowls. Allow your guests to skewer them with steel skewers or tooth picks.
The drinks are what the Hawaiian party theme is really about. Consider hiring out a cocktail maker to whip up Hawaiian Heartbreakers or Castaways. Otherwise you can provide instructions for your guests to make their own…great fun! Don’t forget the little umbrellas to top it off.
Finally, for the music! Ska normally suits this party theme very well though it is not to everybodys taste. You could go for the usual selection of present hits. Though Hawaii does have a proud music scene that perhaps you should investigate.
