Fantastic New Years Celebration Themes
New Year’s Eve is all about the parties - celebrations that last all evening. Partygoers and revelers observe with midnight kisses, bubbly wassails and intriguing interpretations of Auld Lang Syne. Ring in 2010 by stating bye-bye to your vices - whether it’s smoking, junk food or unreasonable shopping and stating hello to a new you with a fun-filled New Year’s Party. With glamor, glitter and a little bit of mystery, mask celebrations are the complete way to assure a unusual, merriment-laden New Year’s Eve. Fabulous dreamings are made of these! With walkmans in hand, jive with while you pop the champagne at a New Year’s ’80s Retro Fete.
What really makes a party? The guests! Use our New Years Eve party ideas to plan activities leading up to the New Years Eve countdown where guests can interact with each other by playing fun games. Everyone makes New Year’s Resolutions. Have invitees share theirs as a playful icebreaker. When guests enter the party, ask them to write their resolution on a slip on paper. Fold up the slips of paper and place all resolutions in a bowl. The party host reads the resolutions aloud and the guests guess who wrote each resolution. Play charades with titles, songs, and books that feature the word “time” in honor of the New Year’s Eve countdown. New Year’s revelers will inevitably end up singing Auld Lang Syne after the ball drops. But who really knows the lyrics, and who is mumbling along to the song?
New Year’s wouldn’t be complete with noisemakers! Tradition holds that making lots of noise at midnight will deflect wicked spirits from entering the New Year. Pick up enough party blowers and noisemakers or try the old-fashioned waybang pots and pans with your guests! We all acknowledge how remarkable that first kiss at midnight is, especially so for spouses and significant others. That first kiss assures intimacy and a close relationship throughout the New Year. Pucker up with a special new lip gloss! Finally, when designing your dinner menu, focus on pork. Since pigs eat their food moving forward, savoring pork on New Year’s will assure the year ahead will be bountiful.
