you could have a Hawwaiin luau party- find inexpensive luau decorations- palm trees, tropical flowers, parrots, seashells, etc!. have regular party foods like pizza or sandwiches (sloppy joes are cheap too) or you can grill hot dogs!.
Mexican Fiesta- have a build your own taco/nacho bar with all the fixins!. mexican decorations, get a pinata filled with goodies!.
costume party- everyone dress up like Halloween! or make them come up with a costume starting with the first letter of your name- pick the most origional for a special prize like a movie or CD or something!.

the easiest thing is BBQ, and salads like potatoe salads and macarani salads!. Have a buffet style and just buy like 4 trays and fill them with rice, baked poatoes, corn, and for the main course BBQ chicken or ribs!. Have a big punch and some cases of soda!. Just buy a cake and voila!. Food for everyone! also make sure you clearly state that they can only bring certain number of guests, :
Example: "only 3 guests per invitation" that way you wont have an unexpected number of people coming to your party!. Have fun and dont stress out!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
