hi, i need ideas for 80's themed bbq

guest list is at 70 right now.  85 % adults, 15% kids.  there may be kareoke.  can you think of games, wardrobe ideas, music and/or decor ideas?  the crowd is pretty diverse so ice breakers would be nice too.  (last years big bbq had a very funny hula hoop competition) thanks!

sometimes all you really need in life is a pink wig.

Re: hi, i need ideas for 80's themed bbq

  • How about a fun photo booth with 80s accessories? Neon sunglasses, big jewelry, hats, lacy gloves, sparkly gloves, tutus, belts.

    Maybe karaoke for ice breaker/contest?  The winners can be given 80s prom king and queen sashes to wear.

    80s movies soundtracks would help you with music: Sixteen Candles, Breakfast Club.  The soundtrack for The Wedding Singer has some great tracks too.

    HTH!

     

  • i love the photo booth idea!  that is awesome and the other ideas rock too. 
    sometimes all you really need in life is a pink wig.
  • Centerpieces can be rubik's cubes, pop rocks, yoyos & slap bracelets.

    Use lots of bright vibrant colors for tablecloths & paper goods.

    You can ask people to dress like 80s celebrities, if not just ask they dress in theme.

    Games to play? Hmmm... karaoke, Rubik's cube contests, 80s trivia?
