Traditional French Party Theme Nights
- France, especially Paris, is the epitome of romance for many international travelers. Bring a sense of romance to your French-themed party by decorating in a soft palate of wine red, soft blues, creams, pinks and lilac, suggests the Theme Parties 'N' More website.
- Choose an invitation reflective of the theme and decorated with traditional French symbols such as wine, cheese, grapes, the Eiffel Tower or a French café setting.
- Bring a sense of French opulence to the tables by choosing a traditional French fabric design for the linens. Some suggestions include damask, fleur d' lis patterns and harlequin designs, according to the Theme Parties 'N' More website. Create fun centerpieces by framing photos or postcards of traditional Parisian landmarks. Complement the design with dried bouquets of lavender. For an edible centerpiece, include a plate of French cheeses and bottles of French wine.
- Food is an essential element to any French-themed party, according to the Celebrations website. Include a menu of sweet and savory crepes, traditional French pastries. Host a wine tasting with a favorite selection of French wines and cheeses. Consider a sandwich station with a selection of traditional French breads.
