Planning a gala? Let’s take your celebration to another level with a theme that lends itself to fun decor. Here are some examples of gala themes and corresponding decorations that will make your party the talk of the town.
Masked Ball
A masked ball offers tons of opportunity for fun and flair in decor! You might throw a dramatic, Phantom-of-the-Opera-style masquerade, in which case you could use red and black linens, crimson drapes, and a stunning chandelier to pull it all together. You could also host a Mardi-Gras-esque ball with green, gold and purple accents. Include floor standing street lamp posts to play up the New Orleans feel. If your event is outdoors, be sure to have canopies or heaters. If your guests will be dancing the night away indoors, you may even need to rent fans for your space. Whatever you choose, be sure to stock up on beads!
Live Entertainment
Why not bring the circus to your next gala? A circus theme lends itself to very distinct decor. Stripes, primary colors and plenty of animal accents should all make an appearance at your bash. Start out by renting a big white tent for your event to immediately transport your guests to a night under the bigtop. Serve popcorn, cotton candy, peanuts and nachos from concession stands. Send out invitations that look like circus tickets, use plenty of string lights and showcase gymnasts, contortionists, and animal tamers to really impress your attendees. Be sure that seating is arranged in such a way as to allow everyone a great view of the stage.
High Roller Event
If the unabashed purpose of this event is to raise funds, then why not make that the central theme? You could hold an auction with items up for bid on tables for display. Vegas-style events are very popular. You could scatter the room with gambling tables and cocktail waitresses. Decorate with neon signs, laser lights, and black, red, and green linens. Don’t forget to make sure there are plenty of refreshments to fuel the fun!
No matter what style you go for, pre-party planning is the key to success. Booking a venue, hiring vendors and finding a top-notch party rental are all essential to throwing a blow-out that guests will remember for a long time to come.
