Choose a Theme

This might seem like a no-brainer, because when people think of New Year’s Eve, they think of glitz, glam, glitter, etc. – however if you’re the fancy, dressing-up type of person or want to throw a party that’s a little more laidback and chill, that’s totally okay! It’s your party, and you can choose whatever theme you want. 

That said, the first thing you need to do is figure out your theme. Other than the typical “dressed to the nines” NYE theme, some alternative ideas for themes include:

  • Casual: Tell your guests to wear what they want – athleisure, jeans, loungewear, anything made of cotton or spandex – if you’re after a laidback vibe, this is a great option, plus, your guests will be comfortable.
  • PJs: The older I get, the more I want to stay dressed in something that has an elastic waistband, is stretchy, or oversized, so if you’re in the same boat as I am, throwing a pajama party on NYE will make the transition from partying to sleeping that much easier.
  • Costume: Halloween isn’t the only time you can throw on a costume and drink to your heart’s desire – a costume party on NYE is a quirky and fun way to let loose on the last day of the year.
  • Masquerade: If you’re looking to throw a NYE party on the fancier side, ask your guests to come dressed in their best formal wear with a glitzy masquerade mask to ring in the New Year with an err of mystery and old school glam. 
  • Prom: Talk about a throwback! A prom themed-NYE party is both fun and nostalgic, and you can really get creative with the decor and your outfits.
