How to Have a Great Disco Inferno Party

Are you a fan of the music and styles from the 70’s? Why not let that come through and throw a themed party that honors the Disco era? Themed parties are a fun way to get friends and family together and celebrate special occasions like birthdays and anniversaries.

Ask guests to dress up in their own versions of the favored 70’s fashions, such as leisure suits and bell bottoms. Have them pile on the jewelry and the shoes with the clunky heels. Once they get to your party, give them glow sticks or necklaces or bracelets that glow in the dark. Or try making them wear neon wigs and funky sunglasses.

To liven up the party space, be sure to get decorations that are keeping within the disco theme. Metallic doorway danglers in the form of disco balls and strobe lights are just two ways to turn your living room into a nightclub from the disco era. Hanging disco balls from the ceiling and decorating the walls with banners will also add to the theme.

Balloons with psychedelic colors and patterns can also be used. Smiley face balloons and party favors that incorporate the smiley face are also a popular choice for a disco party. And what disco party is complete without dancing? CD’s with compilations from the music that was popular during that era will get people in the mood to dance. One other thing; don’t forget to take pictures!

If you are one of the many families that has a regularly schedule poker night, this may be one of the best opportunities to have a party. Traditionally poker night either consists of a bunch of friends getting together at a person’s home once a week or a few times a month, but this can be a time where the whole family can be involved as well. This is also one of the easiest types of parties to plan because you already have most of the decorations and there is a set guest list.

When it comes to a poker party, it is important to remember that the main focus is always the game itself; however, there are some decorations that you can purchase that will help carry the more entertaining aspects of the game over for those who are not interested in the game itself. One of the best places to find these decorations is one of the many online party supply outlets. This type of theme is usually incorporated in with the casino theme; however, with the popularity of poker, most of the decorations are poker related.

Putting this party together is really a simple matter of finding some additional decorations to carry the poker theme throughout your home, such as centerpieces and party favors, as well as having casual finger food for all of your guests. Then there is really nothing left to do but sit back relax and either play the game, or at the very least, watch the drama that is poker unfold. This is even a comfortable and safe environment to help those who want to learn the game or improve their strategies. There are many ways that you can make poker night fun for the entire family and not just the usual players at the table on poker night.
