decorations will depend on the birthday boy or girl.
There are numerous ways to throw a 30th party such as an intimate or
lavish birthday bash. While some party themes are general idea, e.g.,
luau party, Mardi Gras themed party and so forth. Parties that focus on
the year a person was born are always fun.

individuals were born in 1981, select party supplies and party
decorations that represent the 1980's and all its glory. Select music,
movie posters, and clothing all circa 1981 for the themed party. Be
careful to keep the party theme in mind while planning.

party going. Offer guests the opportunity to earn various party favors
which do not have to be 1981 related. To ensure everyone has an
opportunity to win party favors, ask multiple choice questions to party
guests.

year; any year will do especially if it has a lot of significant like
the 1930's. Select 1930's themed posters, celebrities, food, music, and
fashion. Gangsters were running wild in the 30's with rum running and
speakeasy's. Throwing a party that resembles a speakeasy will take some
effort and a high budget but can be done..

music), small dance floor, table covers, hanging lights, candles,
peephole at front door, and fish bowls with live goldfish as
centerpieces. Show movies of the era and popular drinks.
