Ideas For A Hollywood Theme Party

Bring the excitement and glamour of Hollywood to your next party. Give your guests the experience of accepting an Oscar and living the high life by setting the scene from the decor to the games, entertainment and food. It will be a party everyone will be sure to remember. Does this Spark an idea?


Decorations


Set the scene of a glamorous Hollywood affair. Roll out a red carpet for guests to walk down so they feel special right from the start. Set formal tables for a feeling of elegance and class. String Christmas lights on the ceilings and walls, or hang them from planters and bushes. Decorate the main area with a megaphone or director's chair and hang an Hollywood sign. Create stars with your guests' names on them and tape them to the floor or walkways.


Attire


The invitations should ask your guests to dress up in formal attire as if they were attending a film premiere.


Food


For a formal dinner party, you can serve chicken, steak or fish. If the party is a buffet, stick to gourmet finger fingers; think caviar, petite fours and shrimp. Serve champagne (or sparkling cider). Keep a popcorn machine running so guests can grab a bag of freshly made popcorn.


Entertainment and Activities


Play movie-related games such as Scene It which can be played in groups and gets everyone involved. Screen old (or new) movies and sit back for a relaxing evening of socializing. For a younger crowd, hire a photographer to pose as a paparazzo and spend the night taking photos of everyone as if they were movie stars. Hire a videographer to film and ask a million silly questions, ala "TMZ."


Awards


Near the end of the night, hand out awards for the best dressed, winners of the games and other silly reasons. Give each award winner a miniature Oscar and encourage them to give an acceptance speech.
