Luau Invitations Beat Winter Blahs

Do your friends a favor by inviting them to a mid-winter luau. From the luau invitations shaped like surfboards to the chance to trade in snow boots for flip-flops, luau guests will appreciate a touch of fun and sun.

Invite friends to escape winter with an evening filled with colorful luau decorations, tropical food and fun party games. On the invitations, encourage luau guests to wear board shorts, sunglasses and straw hats. Make sure the temperature in the luau room is warm enough to feel like summer.

When luau guests arrive, give each a pair of customized flip-flops to wear at the luau and keep as party favors. You can order flip flops printed with the luau theme and date (I’m Sick of Winter Luau, February 28, 2005) from a party store or web site.

Decorate for the luau with lots of plants, paper lanterns and tiki torches. Decorate one corner of the room for pictures. Cover the wall with a blue backdrop (a shower curtain works well) and borrow a surfboard. Have each luau guest strike a hang ten pose and snap a picture.

Bring the Lawn Chairs Indoors for the Luau

Lawn chairs and beach umbrellas are great decorations for the luau. Cover regular furniture with bright beach towels during the luau. For additional luau decorating touches, hang fish net from the ceiling and have beach balls around the room. Decorate the luau refreshment table with a pig on spit made from a large plastic piggy bank or stuffed animal.

Speaking of party foods, do serve pork at you luau. You can have pulled pork sandwiches or barbequed pork ribs. Add fresh fruits and fun tropical drinks complete with little umbrellas to the luau menu.

For luau entertainment, have Don Ho music playing and keep a limbo game in progress. Rent a large screen television and play old beach movies. Fill wading pools with sand and invite luau guests to build sand castles.
