Hawaiian Party Decorations

A Hawaiian themed party obviously needs a nice collection of Hawaiian Party Decorations. What you want to do is keep things really into the Hawaiian spirit and not lose your focus halfway through. It’s not as hard as it might seem to throw an awesome luau. You don’t need to hire a team from an expensive vacation resort to produce a worthwhile party. You just need a little time and patience, and more coconuts then you have ever seen in your life! Ok not really. :)

Now it does depend on how far you want to go with the party and where you are throwing it. Are you just having a nice quiet little party in your backyard and just want some nice key elements that will help transform your little patch of grass into an exotic getaway. Or are you going nuts, having this on a beach and want as much of the Hawaii as you can muster. Once you have figured that out, we can move on to the next step.

Clothing!

Hawaiian Attire
Now you can’t have a Hawaiian Party Decorations and not thing about the traditional Hawaiian shirt, yes it can be tacky but not at a luau! This is why you buy these, the real reason, you can tell Uncle Ted he can finally wear his Hawaiian shirt and nobody will make fun. Don’t forget the Lei’s for all the guests, plus a nice fake flower for the women to put in their hair will really put a nice touch.

The Presentation

When you come to a Hawaiian Party you expect a certain look, it doesn’t have to be the same look as every other luau styled party but obviously there is a general theme. You aren’t going to have Jedi table clothes at a luau. So let’s not forget the Tiki Torches, Coconuts, Fruit Styled Decorations, and palm trees. Now if you’re going a step further, a nice cooking fire with a pig on a spigot and some hula dancers will really go a long way.

Some Good Eats
You can’t plan a party, put up Hawaiian Party Decorations, and not have some good food. It’s against the law in Hawaii, or it should be. If you have nothing else you have to do the Kalua Pig. It’s the traditional dish at any Luau. There are also dishes like Lua Lua, Poke, Mahi Mahi, Poi Poi, and Haupi. Those are some great and well known dishes that people will love and appreciate your attention to detail.
