Mexican Fiesta Theme Party

Just in time for Cinco De Mayo, this celebration will have you mixing up margaritas in no time.

Add a bit of sophisticated style to your Mexican themed party. A few traditional elements combined with colorful details will transform your space to a fun Fiesta!

Serving drinks and snacks on a side table is a great way to allow guests to mingle and move about freely. The white ruffled table covering (actually a shower curtain) reminds us of ladies classic Mexican dresses, while the serape adds a more traditional touch. Another classic element is paper flowers. You can make them yourself and place them around the party.

Give your guests choices for their chips. A simple salsa, a guacamole dip, and a corn & bean dip should please every palette. To quench their thirsts you can serve Mexican sodas. These are served in a crate lined with a water-proof container to hold ice and keep the bottles chilled.

Mexican wedding cookies are a sweet treat your guests can help themselves to, as they are served in small terra cotta pots and labeled with a Mexican paper flag.

A stylish dining table doesn’t have to be difficult or expensive to create. Bright mix-n-match colors exude a casual fun atmosphere.

Each place has a different colored napkin, topped with a different colored paper flower. The plates are a perfect themed addition for only $1 each!

Add a charming detail by using tiny sombreros as name cards! Simply lean them against a large pepper so everyone knows exactly where to sit.

Margaritas are the drink of choice for any fiesta. A lime placed on a wooden skewer is the perfect garnish, of course.

The centerpiece is simply an array of colored glass bottles & vases filled with 1-2 blooms each. The collection clustered together creates a massive look.

The perfect activity for any Mexican Fiesta is a photo area with props. With sombreros, serapes, mustaches on a stick, and maracas, it’s easy to get into the spirit! All you need to do is hang a sheet for the backdrop, and add a classic Mexican cut-out banner. Ole!
