Like Throw a Totally Awesome 80's Theme Party

Like oh my gosh, wouldn't you love to throw a totally radical 1980's themed party? When throwing a 1980's themed party you can go for the 1980's punk culture, or you can go for the 80's retro theme. Really you have many choices because the eighties had many trends.

Rubik's CubeWhen thinking about the 1980's, things that come to mind are:

Madonna

VHS

Boom Boxes

The Rubik's Cube

Leg Warmers

Punks

Florescent Colors

Big Bangs & Big Hair

Bangle Bracelets

 
Pick a 1980's Trend...

madonnaAfter you have picked out a certain trend from the 1980's, you can start to pick out your decor and music. It's best to stick with one trend rather then using all of the trends from the eighties for your party theme. 

 

Like Don't Forget to Wear Your 1980's Threads

Let everyone get in on the party theme too by telling your guest to wear 80's style clothing -- after all that's the party theme. Tell your guest what 80's trend to wear to the party. Or, you can simply tell the guests that any clothing from the 1980's will do just fine.

Here are a couple of places you can suggest to your guests on where to find 80's clothing:

Thrift Stores

eBay

Swap Meets

Online Costumes Stores

 
80's Table Setting Ideas

Again, depending on which 1980's theme you chose for your party will greatly dictate which table coverings and party decor you choose. For example, for the retro look you can use bright florescent colors and even checkers for your tables.

If you're going with the Madonna themed party, you can choose solid black and white table coverings. And you can get really creative with this if you want.

Here's a example of a 1980's Madonna themed party table setting idea:

White table covering with a fluorescent pink lace (Or black lace.) material draped on top.

For the centerpieces, you can use old Pepsi bottles and throw in some bright silk flowers in shades of bright pink, bright green, and bright orange. You can dye plain white silk flowers using RIT dye. You can also wrap brightly colored beaded necklaces around and pouring out of the Pepsi bottles.
