See off the Old and celebrate the New Year with a Christmas tree, tangerines, Olivier and an address from the President? For many people, this has already set their teeth on edge. That is why themed parties and themed New Year in particular have become so popular in recent years.
Despite a sufficient number of New Year's attributes, people are trying to diversify this holiday. Some throw a Japanese or Hawaiian-style party on New Years, others go on a trip, and still others don't celebrate at all.
Particular attention should be paid to themed New Year's parties. Now the theme for a New Year's party can be anything - a story from a fairy tale, a historical event or legend, New Year in other countries of the world, etc. And what needs to be done in order to spend a thematic New Year?
Preparatory work
First, you need to choose the theme of the holiday and start collecting information. You will need time to think through everything to the smallest detail, as well as warn guests about the unusualness of the New Year. Guests should call and tell about their intentions about 1, 5-2 weeks before the New Year. This is due to the fact that each invitee will need to choose an outfit, shoes, think over accessories, etc. If your holiday will take place according to a certain scenario and you need several assistants, then you also need to select in advance people who will agree to participate in the staging, development and implementation of the scenario of the thematic New Year. Otherwise, such thoughtlessness can darken the holiday.
Scenario: what you need to know
You can write a script for the thematic New Year yourself, or you can find the ideal one on the Internet. If you want to plan everything yourself, then you will need a lot more time. In the New Year's themed scenario, there must be games, riddles, contests, selected in accordance with the age and hobbies of the guests. Otherwise, the guests will get bored.
Festive table for a thematic New Year's party
If everything on your party is devoted to one theme, then you will also have to choose the appropriate snacks. For example, Russian cuisine will look bad at an Eastern New Year's party, and sushi in the Italian style will be out of place at the New Year, etc. That is why you will have to think over the dishes of the festive table on your own or together with any guest.
If there is no time at all
If you are sorely short of time, then it is best to contact a holiday agency. Of course, prices will be much higher on New Year's Eve than on other days, but it is the specialists who will be able to take all the trouble of organizing and preparing the holiday in a thematic style.
