How to Organize a Gatsby Theme Party

If you are a big fan of The Great Gatsby, surely you will be glad to experience something similar to the book/film once in your life. Well, how can one have that kind of experience you may ask. It is actually quite simple as you can organize your own Gatsby themed party for you and your friends. You can turn every occasion into an opportunity to celebrate all things in the Gatsby-style. So if you are planning to celebrate a Gatsby-themed party, you have come to the right place as we are going to show you tips to throw an incredible party for you and your friends.

1. Invitations

You should send out invitations to your guests about six to eight weeks before your party, the earlier the better. That’s because a Gatsby-theme party will require costumes or themed outfits. But, if you just thought out this Gatsby-theme party idea for your birthday party next week, considering the time given was limited, you can always work with a dress rental shop in Singapore that rents out Gatsby styled dresses. You can always prepare a changing room filled with Gatsby dresses and accessories right next to your party room.

2. Decoration

Your Gatsby-themed party wouldn’t be Gatsby enough if it is not decorated according to the movie. All you need to do is copy the exact same thing that Mr. Gatsby has done for his big party. With that being said, here are a few things which you must have for your Gatsby party. Metallic gold fabric across the ceiling, gold chandeliers and candelabras, large feather accents on the back of your chair, etc. Floral arrangements, strings of pearl and glass crystal hung from the ceiling to trees to the back of your chairs, literally everywhere and anywhere.

3. Entertainment

Music is a must for a good party. For Gatsby-themed music, it will be perfect to form a playlist with jazz mixed classic music, tunes from the 1920’s and you must never forget about The Great Gatsby movie soundtrack. You can just plug-in your iPod for the song or hire a great band. We would always recommend you to hire a band because the music would sound more authentic and better for your party. You should consider Singapore entertainers for hire such as fire breathers, acrobats and aerial gymnast if you are hosting a BIG party. They will turn your party into a fun and a wild one.

4. Food and drink

Hosting a Gatsby-theme party means you only have to remember TWO important rules. The first is you MUST serve champagne. The second one is you should NEVER run out of champagne. You just need to serve little bites for food. With little bites, they can nibble in between dancing, conversing and sipping on champagne. That way you wouldn’t interrupt the fun by having your guests stop for food, which is why little bites will be perfect for a magnificent Gatsby-theme party.
