5 Tips to help you choose the perfect theme for your event

Updated: Jul 11, 2022

So you are planning an event and you need to choose a theme. This can be quite a daunting task. After all, it is the first impression your guests will have of the occasion, which increases the pressure to want to choose the perfect theme. We are here to give you 5 tips to guide you in the right direction and to help you select the right theme for your event that will make it an impressive and memorable occasion!


After you have a clear view of your goal for the event and after you have made your list of guests who will be attending, you can ask yourself these questions to give you a more structured approach in deciding on your theme.


1. What is the tag line


This is a small summary that you want to keep in mind during the entire planning process and that you have to consider every step of the way.


It will help you and those carrying out important roles and duties at the event to understand the tone and lingo that needs to be used with regards to their presentation and the content that will be included or considered.


2. What type of event are you planning?


The type of event also plays a large role in the theme you choose. A child’s birthday party will not work well with an elegant theme and a corporate event might not be well suited with a circus theme.


Consider the people in attendance and the occasion as well as the size of your event. The level of formality can go a long way in helping you make the right choice.


3. What is the colour scheme and lighting going to look like?


Colour is more important than most people may think. It conveys meaning and can have an impact on the mood and emotions of the guests of your event. Some research can help you decide on what colours you would like to use that is in line with how you want your guests to feel.


Lighting can also have a big impact. Bright and harsh lighting may make the room feel cold and bare that could also make your guests feel unwelcome if not used in the proper setting. Whereas softer lighting with warm colours may set a more welcoming or even romantic mood.


4. How can I make the entertainment unique?


Here is where creativity is going to help! Consider a couple of themes that your guests may like and the entertainment that will go well with it. Then try to see how you can give it a bit of a twist, add some more excitement and surprises or to keep it low key and uniform with a hint of your own personality in it.


5. Consistency is key!


Once you have your theme, keep things consistent by incorporating the theme into all the aspects of your event. Music, entertainment, décor, gifts and food are all key elements that have to be in line with your theme.


If you’re having an Avengers birthday party your colours can be red, white and blue with natural lighting. You can have every one dress up and we can get our specialised animated characters to come and make an appearance.


Or if you are having a Middle Eastern themed private party, the bright colours and warm lighting will work so well with our belly dancers entertaining your guests while they enjoy spicy foods.
