Awesome 80s Invitations

A totally awesome 80s theme party starts with a totally awesome invite. Invitations set the tone, expectations and mood of any party you throw, and for 80s theme parties where you expect guests to come dressed and ready to party like it's 1985 well, it's really important!

So before you get down to planning out your own tubular look for the night, be sure to find and send 80s invitations that let guests know what to expect.

We love the look and feel of this 80s party invite from Tiny Prints. The neon pops of bright colors, tubular typeset and Lite-Brite insipired design are perfect for setting the feel.

This invite convey the theme and also lets party goers know that they are expected to come dressed (and coiffed!) in their 80s finest.

80s Party Hosts - Make sure your guests are dressed the part!

For those guests who disregard your direction to dress like it's 1985, make sure you have some gear to give them when they walk through the door. No party poopers allowed at this theme party!

Hit up your local thrift store or costume place and buy a few prop items. A teased-hair wig, bright pink scrunchie or faded jean vest will do just the trick.

Word to the wise: Make sure you go all-out as well so no one feels silly in their gear!
