When planning an Italian-themed party, consider the food, decorations, and attendees. Determine if the party will celebrate Italian culture in general or a specific region. Serve food in a particular order and consider incorporating Italian holidays or events. Remember to offer options for different tastes and ages.
One of the most celebrated aspects of Italian heritage is Italian food. Planning an Italian-themed party should begin by determining what food items will be offered, what decorations will be used, and what practices will be observed. Help determine who will be at the Italian-themed party so that all aspects of the party are appropriate for attendees. If, for example, children are attending the party, wine shouldn’t be the only drink available. Remember that different attendees will have different tastes, so help prepare some safer, less adventurous dishes for everyone to enjoy.
Think about what kind of Italian themed party will be more fun. For example, the party planner may want to create a party atmosphere that celebrates Italian culture in general, or an atmosphere that focuses on a particular region of Italy. A Tuscan-themed party, for example, will feature foods and decorations that mimic the look and feel of Tuscany. A Venetian party will be characterized by different types of decorations that more faithfully reflect that area of Italy. A little internet research will give the party planner an idea of what decorations, foods, and practices will suit each region of Italy.
When planning an Italian-themed party that involves preparing and serving food, think carefully about what foods will be served and in what order. Many authentic Italian meals feature several dishes served in a particular order; a pasta dish, a main course, then a salad and dessert is usually included. Antipasto salad is an easy-to-prepare dish that will give guests something to munch on if a full meal isn’t being served. The antipasto usually includes various types of meat, olives, peppers and vegetables served on a bed of lettuce.
Another good idea for planning an Italian themed party is to plan the party in accordance with an Italian holiday or significant event. Many sports fans could benefit from having an Italian-themed party during a soccer match in which the Italian national team will be playing. This offers guests integrated entertainment while they are waiting for a meal or simply having a conversation over appetizers. Italian music can be played if no such sporting event is available or an Italian film can be played on the television. Otherwise, Italian food and decorations will give guests plenty to enjoy during the party.
