Mexico Party Theme

Plan the perfect Mexican fiesta with these ideas:

Invite your amigos with Mexican-themed invitations. A cute idea for unique invitations is a mini sombrero with a note attached.

Hang traditional banner flags in every color.  Place a Mexican flag near the entrance and red, white, and green balloons and streamers.  Pinatas, cutouts, make festive decorations. Hang festive chili lights, cactus lights or colorful lanterns throughout the party space, and make tissue-paper flowers in every color.

Have guests dress as Flamenco dancers, Aztec warriors or Mexican cowboys.  Wear sombreros, boots, and panchos.  

Make confetti eggs or cascarones, using cleaned out egg shells and confetti. Then paint the shells and hand out to guests during the party to create a fun confetti shower by breaking them over each other’s heads.

Entertain the crowd with a Mariachi band playing traditional music or hire flamenco dancers.  Hand out maracas as party favors to liven up the fiesta.  The “Macarena” always gets the crowd moving.

Feast on Mexican cuisine such as enchiladas, chile rellenos, tacos, and chips with guacamole or salsa. Gulp it down with margaritas or Horchata for the kids.
