1. How do you pick the perfect party theme? You figure out the theme based on who will attend the party and what they will be comfortable doing. Also some themes work better in smaller groups while others need a crowd to be more fun. So the number of people you plan to call will also affect the theme you choose.

2. The themes decide the party activities but the number of activities needs to be fixed. Usually three activities is a good number to go with, although you should have a fourth one up your sleeve just in case you have more time to kill.

3. The food, table ware, and invitations must all be related to the party theme that you choose. In fact the invites should clearly spell out to the guests what they must expect. At the same time don't go for expensive stuff that will cost you the earth. Go for creative stuff that will have a great effect.
