Luau themed party Help!!! 10 points?!


Question: Luau themed party Help!!! 10 points?
I'm turning 14 and will be having a luau themed b-day party. So im renting tents, chairs, tables, and i want to rent a water slide. Serve as a treat pinapple, pretzels, marshmellows, fresh fruit, etc. next to a chocolate fountain! (they can dip treats in fountain) Then i already have the glowsticks! And i was thinking of giving out leis (those flower necklaces) as they enter my backyard to my birthday party! And then with christmas lights the ones that are like plain white and then the colorful ones wrapped around my gate in my backyard. Then have like cut-outs or like scene setters of hawii girls in grass skirts. Then Around hang those lanterns from the tents all around. Have like a bubble machine, . . . . to make it look idk . . . i just want the bubble machine:) . . . . . anyway then have beach balls like in random places (on the floor) Then have flowers as the centerpieces with a plate and happy-Birthday-mints as the wrapper (i already bought them) on the bottom. Then im having my home streo <- (sorry idk if i spelled it right) system thing turn the bass all the way up put the volume on high and us that as my music. Have also a hula girl as a pinata, im going to also have a giant balloon of a hula girl saying happy b-day at the entrance (its like 2 1/2 feet tall)
Then i was thinking of having like clear glass plates with water and then a floating lit candle. 2 per table so in the night everything can look lit up!
And send out invitations well i think it will just also be a hula girl on the cover then like the date, time, location, etc, Unless i get a better idea:[
*Oh i forgot and on the cake it will have my picture on it with lots of flowers saying happy b-day!

If you have any more ideas or suggestions please let me know or tell me if i have to change anything or something idk Help! Thank you in advance!

P.S= This will be for 50 people both female and male, all age groups!

Answers:

Are you just serving fruit and sweets for the food? For that many guests, you need a more of a menu:

ideas: coconut shrimp, teriyaki chicken on skewers, kabobs with meatballs and cut up veggies, salads like macaroni salad, potato salad, dips and chips....even a ham&pineapple pizza would be something more than "just sweets".

Can do bowling with coconuts (set up pins using empty liter bottles, painted to look like hula girls, fill bottoms with sand or kitty litter to weight down)

Can use tops of pineapple to stick skewers and party picks in holding fruit pieces (grapes, maraschino cherries, cheese cubes)....

Make dishes using coconut., banana, ...macadamia nuts if no one is allergic (check with guests beforehand to be sure!)....things like that can be centerpiece on table, too along with the pineapple, mangoes, bananas.

Have a door prize of a beach pail filled with fun things: beach towel, beachcomber's hat, "lifesaver" candy, sun lotion, lip balm, sunglasses

Get some good beach music to mix in with regular pop music (things from Beach Boys, Bob Marley, Jimmy Buffet, even UB40 has tunes that have that kind of reggae sound).

Invites can be flip-flops decorated with ribbon, fake flower...can even make large ones from card stock and hang up around party area.



Sounds like you've got a great plan, but if you want a few more ideas:
