It is Friday night and your husband comes home and tells you that he has invited his boss and the out of town clients over to your house for a barbecue in 3 days.
What are you going to do? You know that this is your one shot to earn brownie points for your husband.
You of course want to be the perfect hostess, have the most organized house, cleanest house, and the funnest party! How do you achieve this on such a short notice? I think a party's tone is set by the party's decorations, food and company in that order.
Can't you just imagine walking into a new house and instantly knowing what the evening holds in store for you by just the decorations theme? The internet is a wonderful tool for just these kinds of party ideas.
I will name a few that I think would be fun to throw together in short notice and would be a blast.
Of course the number one that comes to my mind for a barbecue would be a cowboy theme.
You could even request that your company join in on the fun and wear cowboy shirts and boots.
Throw together a good old fashioned Texas barbecue and you will have a great night.
Top the evening off by sitting out in the backyard around a fire pit, roasting marshmallow and just getting to know the people you work with.
Another fun party idea would be a Hawaiian theme luau.
Order you in some fake leis and make some beautiful flower clips for the ladies to wear in their hair.
Then add some grass skirts and of course coconut bras to your order and let the fun start.
Have a roasted pig and lots of Hawaiian salads with some tiki torches around the backyard and then top off the night with a good old fashioned limbo contest.
Company gatherings are all ready stressful enough without worrying about if you are sitting properly, using the right fork with the tight course.
I think having a themed party releases a lot of the pressures that come with a company dinner.
Not only will everyone around have a great time but your husband will be so grateful for all of your hard work.
The ideas are endless.
Prince and Princess, cops and robbers, cartoon villains and heroes.
Another favorite one would be a sport themed.
Depending on the time of year coordinate the party around the sport of choice.
Have fun and don't forget to have fun yourself and don't forget that the party supplies can really add to your party!
