Make him feel young by throwing the party college style!. Use his university's colors in all ways--streamers, tablecloth, umbrellas, and paper plates and utensils!. Have his friends and family dress in the same color style, or bring t-shirts and memorabilia from his former school!.
Serve tasty alcohol--sangria, beer, margaritas (something summer-y for the adults)!. Summer-themed drinks are always reminiscent of youth!.
Have plenty of activities!. Keep the smallest kids involved with childhood games--jump rope, ring toss, or a sprinkler/kiddie pool!. Teens and adults can always play basketball, soccer, or volleyball!.
As far as food goes, grilling out is always wonderful!. Leave your husband in charge of the grill!. Since it is his birthday, the food should be his choice!. Ribs, beef, and chicken are all great choices for a barbecue!. There should be a cold pasta salad, corn on the cob, regular green salad, perhaps a jello, fresh fruit, and terrific sides: baked beans, macaroni and cheese, biscuits, mashed or twice baked potatoes!. For dessert, once again, use your husband's judgment!. If he loves birthday cake, bake your own using his school's colors, or supply a dessert utilizing some fresh fruit, like a fresh berry cobbler or pie!.
Be sure to play all of the music that would have been popular during his college years (not too long ago) and ask your friends and relatives to bring with them a story or particular memory they have of your husband from that time period!. It should be a very fun and memorable get-together!Www@FoodAQ@Com

My husband is turning 30 next week and I did a "Take your best shot" theme!. so its a combination of basketball and alcohol (as in shot glass) theme!. for the basketball part I got ordered him a super cool sculpted cake that looks like a basketball court and another cake that looks like a sneaker on a box (it sounds weird but its cool) just google sculpted cakes for some ideas or sweetsweetsues (that's who i ordered mine from)!.!.!.!.the food is stadium food which is easy for a BBQ and we have basketball decorations!. for The "shot" part I ordered custom shot tubes that say his name and "take your best shot", everyone will be taking a shot whenever the clock hits 30 (1:30, 2:30 etc!.) and for party favors I got mini basketballs that say thanks for coming "hope you had a ball" and the shot glasses are favors also!. I also filled pinatas with plastic Mini liquor bottles and more shot tubes!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.Hope this helped, have funWww@FoodAQ@Com
When my husband turned 30 I threw a party based on the year he was born!. Then I begged borrowed and stole 30 different items to wrap and give him as gifts, everything from false teeth, preparation H, adult diapers and a walker, just to remind him that he is getting older!.
As for food, if it is family and friends, make it a pot luck!. You supply the meat and the cake, and have everyone else bring a side dish!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You could do a western theme, with red checked tablecloths, drinks served out of mason jars!. You could have horse shoes set up for people to play, and at the party you could all talk cowboy talk (howdy ma'am, etc!.)!. You could pass out cowboy hats (that would be the party favor too)!.
To complete the 30th birthday theme, you could add in a little "over the hill" too!. Make the cake like "boot hill"!.!.!.where the bad guys get buried!.!.!.Make a mound cake with little tombstones on it!
Good luck!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Hi Jeannie,
How about doing a 1980's theme party!. Here are a few ideas for it or at least get U started!.
Decorations - On your walls put posters and pictures of the most memorable 1980’s people, places, and things!. Be thrifty about this- do an image search on your preferred internet search engine, and print out the pictures yourself or have someone help U!. Hang pictures and posters of Madonna, Michael Jackson, Back to the Future, Corey Feldman, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, Miami Vice, Knight Rider, Prince, Ronald Reagan, The A Team, Transformers, MTV, Molly Ringwald, Goonies, or ET, He-Man, just to name a few!. Adding these pictures as decoration is a unique touch and will prove to be a nostalgic moment for many in attendance!. Not to mention, these images are a great conversation starter, your guests will be debating the politics of Reagan, and critiquing award winning movies like ET and Goonies!
Food - Your food should make your guests reminiscent of their youthful days, where they could survive on a diet of the following deliciously unhealthy choices that were oh so 80's!. For the main course- think Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, or McDonald’s!. These fast food restaurants proved to be popular after school hangouts for hungry 1980’s teens!. For some snacks provide your guests with JELLO- remember Bill Cosby’s famous commercials!?, bowls of Apple Jacks and Corn Pops along with a plethora of popular 80’s candy: Fun Dip, Jolly Ranchers, Big League Chew, and Nerds!.
Attire: In the 80’s anything was possible!. There was no dress code, and modern day mismatching was then considered fashionably forward!. Here’s some specific 80’s fads you don’t want to leave out: slap bracelets, fanny packs, crimped hair, leg warmers, rock n’ roll t-shirts, mullets, tons of bracelets and accessories, colored jeans, sunglasses at night, parachute pants, acid washed jeans, spandex pants, side pony tails, glitter galore, mohawks, blue eye shadow, pink lipstick, off the shoulder shirts, sleeveless shirts, mini skirts, high tops, big hair, Keds, LA Gear, Jordache!. Come as your high school's head cheerleader, homecoming queen, or all American high school quarterback (jock)!. There are endless possibilities for your guest’s costumes!. [note: a lot of items in this section can be found @ thrift stores or a yard sales]
Drinks - Take the favorite drinks of the 80’s and add a modern day twist, literally!. Use Tab Cola, Kool-Aid, and Capri Sun for your alcoholic drink mixers!. A bowl of “spiked” punch is also very 1980’s!
Music - use your imagination- the sky’s the limit!. A good overall 1980’s mix ALL night long is very necessary!. Start of with Madonna, play some U2, Van Halen, Devo, Duran Duran, Billy Idol, Michael Jackson, David Bowie, Motley Crue, Bon Jovi, Journey, the Bangles, Pat Benetar, Culture Club, Eurythmics, Flock of Seagulls, Foreigner, Hall & Oats, Prince, Rick Springfield, Tears for Fears, Talking Heads, B-52’s, Wham!, and Wang Chung!. Your guests will be on their feet dancing the night away, and singing the lyrics to the songs which everybody knows best!
Below you will find links for food serve tips I also included the main page as the last link in case U would like to check other items out!.
