You have decided to throw an 80s themed party. It's time for you to get excited because your guests will have a blast! This 80s-inspired decor, 80s cover bands and food ideas will create the perfect party atmosphere. Give your guests a memorable event.
1. Absolutely Awesome Dress Code
We were able to see so many fashion trends in the 80s. Scrunchies and mullets, lace blouses and ripped jeans are great fashion trends. Introduce a dress code to your retro party and bring back the style!
Ask your guests to wear their 80s favourite outfits. Expect to see lots of neon, animal prints and legwarmers. You can also make it an 80s themed party with a fancy dress code. Invite your guests to dress up as their favourite 80s movie star or host an 80s music party. Your party invitations should inform your guests about the dress code.
1. Glow-in-the-Dark Fun
Are you hosting an evening party? For some neon shenanigans, turn on the blacklights and get out the glow sticks. Transform your space into an 80s party scene with glow-in-the-dark paint and other party supplies. This can be used to create a scene for a dance segment or to theme your entire bash around the idea.
1. Neon Lighting
Neon lighting is the best way to have an 80s themed party, whether you bring out the glow sticks.
A neon sign such as "I Love the 80s" or a quote from your favourite 80s film can brighten your space. Strip lighting is a great way to bring neon colours to your party.
1. Music-Themed Centerpieces
You'll need party tables to decorate if you host an 80s themed party, such as a family reunion or wedding. You can take inspiration from 80s music to design themed centrepieces.
Music can be used in many fun ways to decorate your tables and decorations. You can use album covers to decorate your tables. Each table could be named after a band or album. Spray paint boomboxes to make them centrepieces. You can also swap traditional name cards with cassette tapes with your names.
1. A Rad Playlist
An 80s-themed party is not complete without a great playlist. You don't necessarily need a DJ as long as you have the best 80s hits and some nostalgic tunes. You can also add hits from the 80s, such as Culture Club, Madonna, and Wham, or look for jazz bands to hire for this amazing party. A playlist can be created to match the mood of each moment if you want to break down your party into more relaxed and energetic moments.
Everybody has their 80s favourite songs, so include some of them in your playlist for a fun way of getting everyone involved, including a note in your digital invitations with the song requests of your guests.
1. Retro Candy Bar
Retro candy bars are a great way to get people talking about their childhood sweets. Nerds and Runts are great classics to stock up on. Push Pops, Chupa Chups, and Razzles are also great options! Retro candy bars give you nostalgic feelings, but they're also a great way for your celebration to be brightened up with rainbow colours.
