How to organize a thematic dinner
Organizing a themed dinner to share an unforgettable evening together with our friends can be a really fun experience. Choose the theme, call all the attendees, evaluate options for the menu and then enjoy the most of a different meeting in which everyone is willing to have a great time. At .com we know that it can be a really entertaining experience, that's why we give you some keys so you can discover how to organize a thematic dinner in a simple but great way.
What will be the theme?
A thematic dinner must, of course, have a central theme. So the first step of the organization is to choose the ideal theme for this celebration, one with which most of the guests identify so they can enjoy the evening to the fullest.
Some popular themes are: dinners from the 70s, 80s or 90s, casino dinners, dinners set in some movie or medieval dinners. The options are unlimited and it's just about finding the perfect idea that suits you and the guests.
Choose the place of your themed dinner
The great thing about this type of event is that if we choose the right place we can live a really different experience, in which all the attendees can get fully into the central theme and enjoy a unique evening.
You can do this event at home if you have enough space, although the ideal is to do it in a restaurant that is responsible for organizing the most complex: food and the environment. There are many spaces for themed dinners in Madrid and the rest of Spain, get the ideal places in your city and enjoy a fun meeting.
If you decide to do it at home, follow the recommendations that we give you later to show off with this event.
The perfect invitations
In a thematic dinner, no detail should be left untouched, so the invitations are very important to make this meeting unforgettable. Prepare your guest list and design a simple invitation to send it online.
If the design is not so good, nothing better than creating an event on Facebook with this reason, so all guests can keep abreast of the news in a simple way.
Choose a simple menu
If you have decided to organize the theme dinner in your home, it is best to choose a simple menu to elaborate or order so that your time does not go through laborious preparations. We recommend opting for light snacks and easy to make, and instead of spending hours cooking for your guests, order the main dish to a restaurant, this way you will save a lot of time.
If you decide to make the theme dinner in a restaurant you should not worry about any of this or clean up the next day, so this is an excellent idea.
The most important thing: decoration and costumes
Organizing a successful themed dinner requires an excellent decoration. Depending on the theme you choose, you should worry about making your guests feel involved in that environment, so do not forget:
- Choose tablecloths, glasses and dishes that are consistent with the theme of the party.
- Decorate the place with elements such as posters, balloons or pieces that remember the chosen theme. For example if it is a dinner of the 80, the posters of Madonna, Michael Jackson or Jane Fonda can not miss.
- The music to set the mood will also be key, so prepare a good list to animate the evening.
- In a thematic dinner everyone should be dressed appropriately, so do not forget to highlight it in the invitation or the Facebook event, and the only way to achieve the environment we want is for everyone to be dressed according to the occasion.
