Party Theme Ideas & Invitations
A party theme is the one idea that ties the invitation, decorations, food and games together: a train for a toddler, a disco ball for a 30th, a garden for a shower. Each theme below has its own page of ideas, and invitations that play the theme as guests open them. Every design is free, and guests RSVP on the same page.

How to choose a party theme
- Start with the guest of honor. A toddler's favorite vehicle or animal, a grad's next stop, the music a 40-year-old grew up on: a theme they already love needs no explaining.
- Check it against the place and season. A garden party needs a rain plan, a winter wonderland suits January, and a backyard movie night needs dark by start time.
- Pick two or three signature details. Tickets at the door, a color pair and one centerpiece carry a theme further than a room full of matching plates.
- Let the invitation set it up. Guests meet the theme on the invitation first, so put the theme's words in the title and its look on the page.
