  • Anything tropical, parrots, or margarita themed.

    Some of these are super cute and could be perfect for a Margaritaville Party or any tropical themed party.

    Part of the attitude of this party is taking it easy, and taking it as it comes. But there are few fun things you can plan that will make the party extra fun such as...

  • Limbo!
  • How about a fun parrot shaped pinata? Fill it with some fun things like tropical fruit flavored candy, parrot shaped key chains, toy sharks, chocolate "pirate" coins...
  • Have guests dress for the occasion: luau, beach, tropical wear, and award prizes for the best
  • Give each guest a lei to wear when they arrive
  • Have a big budget? Hire a steel drum band to play as guests arrive or an acoustic guitarist to play during the party! How cool would that be, right?
