Metallic and marble
The clean and modern alternative to having lots of flowers and frills is the world of Metallica! Stay blinged out with this trend and get a matching outfit for the night too! A 20’s style dress and headpiece would totally go with this theme.
Having a party theme is important because it gives your party direction:
you’ll know where to start, how to decorate, what to serve; and your guests
will know what to wear. Party themes are exciting because everyone can get
creative. Besides the fun, a theme will keep your event planner guided and
in check, if you’re using one.
Here are five awesome party themes for 2018 that will get you excited to
host:
Huge Backdrops
Incorporating huge backdrops in specific areas will fill up your event
space and make for gorgeous photos. Choose a backdrop you like- flowers,
green grass, sequins, balloons etc, and build the rest of your party around
that theme. We can already picture all the pretty photos taken in front of
this flower one.

A Food Experience
Yes, food is a normal part of parties, but what about a party centred totally on food? This year, create a gastronomy field trip in the comfort of your own event. The idea is to have a carnival of flavours all within a hundred metres. It’s no wonder award winning Nigerian Chef, Chef Fregz, recently hosted friends to a food festival as part of his birthday celebrations. We like food in Lagos though.

Black tie
Weddings and corporate dinners are two of the few times that we host a black tie event in this part of the world. How about switching things up and doing a black tie theme for your next party with friends? Your friends will be so excited to really dress up for a fun evening of eating and dancing. Make it even more fun by hiring a photographer to capture you and your crew doing a mock awards show and mock music performances. We can all pretend to Beyonce and Jay Z for a night.

Entertainment for Rock Stars
Can you afford the likes of Tiwa Savage and Davido, performing live at your event? Or some exotic acrobats and fire breathers wowing your guests to oblivion? Entertainment is expensive but if you can afford it, it definitely gives your event the upscale factor. Let’s continue to bring the world of Eko Miami to life!

Are you willing to try any of these themes this year?
