Fun Ideas for a 50th Birthday Party
Turning 50 is a monumental milestone in everybody's life and deserves a celebration like no other. These fun ideas for a 50th birthday party will help you set up your very own unique birthday bash your friends will enjoy and remember for a long time.
Beach Party Theme
Everybody loves the beach. If your birthday falls on a summer month, the beach theme would be super. Well, you do not have to haul everyone to the coast but you can have your party indoors and at the same time avoid the sun's UVB rays or you can have your beach party in your home's pool.
Let the guests come in their beach attire, sunglasses, and beach towels. Since the party is an informal one, your guests will relax the moment they drop to the colorful beach mats, or linger at the barbecue grill.
Whether you hold your party indoors or at the pool side, max out on the dcor. Colorful inflatable noodles, plastic tube trainers, surf boards, and volleyball net complete with
bright beach balls. Use colorful beach mats instead of chairs, each with candy colored throw pillows.
Personalized banners directing guests to the snack counter, boardwalk and shower enliven the beach party theme and gives the whole place an authentic look.
For music and dancing, play the Beach Boys hits and the hits of your favorite bands in the 70s and 80s. Don't forget the games. Your guests won't be bored with fun games to play and fun prizes to win.
Serve different drinks - non-alcoholic punch for those watching their alcohol intake. The crowd's favorite beer should be plentiful, to go with the barbecued eats.
Fresh fruits in season and vegetable salads should complement your barbecued ribs and steaks.
Your invitations should have a beach party theme too to set your friends buzzing. Send them fake seashells inserted with the party invitation and announce that they should bring along their favorite beach attire.
When they arrive, welcome them warmly and hand out beach slippers - these are your party giveaways.
Scavenger Hunt Theme
This is one party theme that will set the guests laughing and racing to find the loot. Be sure to have fun stuff hidden in all imaginable places at the party site.
The Scaventer Hunt is best held outdoors where there is more leg room and places to hide your treasure. Fun prizes are inexpensive - a bag of chocolate candies, CDs of your favorite bands during your teen years, and tickets for two to a movie.
Make sure though that you have one of each kind so no two guests will have the same prizes. Before the great scavenger hunt, announce the prizes they can find in the appointed hunting grounds.
Don't tire your guests with a long list of games because the Scavenger Hunt is one long game already. Give yourself and your guests the time to enjoy each other, have fun dancing and enjoying the glorious food you have prepared.
Your invitation must reflect the Scavenger Hunt theme. These theme-related invitations will surely catch your friends' attention and set them raring to go to your 50th birthday party.
