Summer Fun Yacht Party Ideas
Ahoy! Summer is finally here and for an unforgettable sophisticated party, charter a yacht and enjoy gorgeous views of water and sky while you celebrate. This stylish choice for an extravagant party is perfect for any Southern Californian looking to create a memorable event. Redolent of early 20th century decadence, a yacht party also works well with costume party themes such as a Yacht Rock Party, Glitz and Glam Affair, Tropical Luau, and of course the traditional nautical themed “I’m on a Boat” party!
1. Like totally – begin with the look and sound of 80′s pop culture. Have a “Yacht Rock Party” using inspiration from some of the decade’s iconic rock legends. Guests can Rock some of the unforgettable fashion trends like the black lace, neon colored jackets, and ah yes the legging. For decorations you can find inexpensive inflatable guitars and boom boxes. Also seek out your old records and cassettes, both make great centerpieces.
2. Another theme to set sail with, Glitz and Glamour. You are going to be cruising luxury style so, make the whole night about it! Roll out the red carpet for your guests and make it a black tie event. Leave the beer at home and focus on champagne and wine inspired cocktails. If you really want to raise the stakes you can create a casino night aboard.
3. Yacht-check, open waters-check, sun-check, cue in the bathing suit. What better way to soak up the sun on a yacht with friends none other than a Tropical Luau! Adorn guests with Leis as they arrive while having jimmy buffet tunes fill the air. Carry on the theme with cocktails being served in coconuts and pineapples. Decorate with fresh lilies, hibiscus, and daisies.
4. Last but not least you can stick to the traditional nautical theme, “I’m on a Boat” party! A party like this needs classy drinks, shrimp cocktails, and lots of navy! Decorate the scene with anchors, lanterns, seashells, and gold accents. Think Ralph Lauren meets Martha Stewart for a clean, sophisticated affair.
Bon Voyage!
