Luau Parties Bring the Tropics Home

Tuesday, May 1, 2007

Luau paper party goods are essential parts of any summer tropically themed party regardless of the occasion. Birthday parties, graduations or any kind of pool party or cookout will be more festive when the bright colors of a luau are present.

Menu choices for the luau party can vary from simple pork and pineapple dishes to any sort of Asian or Polynesian foods. Paper flowers and grass skirts or mats add just the right touch when used with luau paper party goods. Elaborate tropical drinks served in real or plastic pineapples, oranges or coconuts can rely heavily on citrus punch and leave alcohol for another occasion.

Night time luau parties are the best as long as mosquitoes are uninvited. Speaking of invitations, there is lots of room for creative expression in the luau party cards. Try designing one of the home printer varieties using open domain clipart or original designs. Colorful sunsets, palm trees and grass huts on the beach will help create the setting.

If fortunate enough to have access to a public beach park or private yacht club facility; there will be the best choice for this salute to summer. Make sure that the beach is adequately groomed. Perhaps a clam bake can be added. When the local yacht club holds sail races or regattas try to schedule the luau for the same time if facilities and parking permit for both activities. This will add great entertainment value to the party.

When possible, sports like beach volleyball or frisbee golf will entertain both participants and spectators. Schedule a time that utilizes the blazing beauty of sunset if the local beach views the western sky. As the orange sun melts into the calm waters of night there will be no doubt that this is the best luau of summer.
