Question:

What is an original idea/theme for a New Year's party?

I want an original theme for the party, not luau or heaven and hell. This will be mainly a drinking party for adults, so adult oriented suggestions are permitted.


Answers:
New Year's eve is all about celebrating in style, and there are a thousand ideas but the original thing is being way sophisticated.

Serve- fizzy cocktails! Add those lemons or small umbrellas by the side! Chips and Dips are way cool all the time, and you could try serving formal food. BBQ are good ideas.

Deco- Keep the lighting low and R&B music will rock the house down! Have a greeeeat party!

Consider a "SPEAK EASY". People have to know a pass word to enter the party. Have gambling type games set up around the room or house. Serve drinks in coffee mugs as if disguising the "bootleg" booze. Music, decorations, hats, etc. from roaring 20's era when prohibition took place.

Have guests dress as flappers and gangsters.
Have Charleston contests with lots of jazz music.
Give out long strands of pearls to the girls and play guns.
Stage a raid by the coppers during the middle of the party.

Create a 'speak easy' with a dance floor, 'cocktail' bar and fog machine. Rent a mirror ball if ceilings high enough. Othewise, soft dim lighting.
Popular dances of the 1920s included the Foxtrot, Turkey Trot, Jive, Lindy Hop and Black Bottom.

Sounds like so much fun - maybe I'll throw on4e this New Year's Eve. Have a blast and tell them "THE DIVA" sent ya!

Well New Year's is usally a "staring over holiday" so I don't know you could 2007 all over your house. Maybe use "Starting over" as you theme. I hope it helped!

i always find letter parties good fun. take a letter from the alphabet (where else right) and people have to come as something that starts with that letter. E.g. its an S party so people come as Spiders, Soldier, Spring etc. this way people use there imagination more and its fun trying to guess what people are too.
