#5 -- 50’s Rock & Roll
We start our countdown at number five with some rockin’ n rollin’! Let’s take it back a few years so we can hang with the cool cats! Turn your next birthday party or wedding reception into A 50’s rock and roll themed bash! A 50’s era themed party will get everyone out of their seats to cut a rug!
Transform your pad or venue into a sock hop! Let PartyCheap help you jitterbug your way into the 50’s with all their 50’s rock and roll themed decorations and supplies! Decor in the 50’s was a way for the hosts to show off their home and housewife skills. Fresh flowers and seasonal greens would be placed on the table or a visible place for guests to see as they entered the home. Put up our 50’s Soda Shop Backdrop or the Black and White Checkered Backdrop so give the room a whole new view! Hang Rock and Roll Plastic Record Whirls from the ceiling and Jukebox Cutouts on the wall. Lastly, to top it all off, create a dedicated smoking room. Smoking was immensely popular throughout the 1950’s. Woman and men would gather around in smoking rooms and fancy ashtrays. For your party, you could create your own version of a smoking room and use our Light-Up Cigarettes for those that don't smoke - or maybe a room dedicated to eating cake? That being said, it’s time to get this party rockin’!
Bust a move! Whether it’s the hand jive or the cha-cha, this party is the bomb. Bring everyone out on the dance floor! Elvis Presley and Frank Sinatra are always a crowd pleaser. Don’t forget to wear your 50’s Sideburn Shades to look the part! Between each song play a short clip from a 50’s movie or show. This will give your guests time to catch their breath for the next jig. Play clips from John Wayne's western classics and Marilyn Monroe’s vintage films Gentlemen Prefer Blondes or Some like it Hot. Be sure to include everyone’s favorite, I Love Lucy starring Lucille Ball! These clips will leave everyone in laughter!
Take five people! After all that dancing, those guests are sure going to get hungry. Fuel them up for another stroll on the dance floor.
