21st Birthday Themes For A Party

By Jane Kliperrs

Birthdays are a significant part of everyone’s life, as are the different stages to aging, growing and maturing, each one a milestone in its own right. You go through the newborn and toddler stages to move on to "tweens" and teenagers all the way to adulthood.

For many, the 18th birthday is a huge event, so close to being allowed to do almost everything as adults. However, the 21st birthday is all of that and more, as that is truly adulthood in every aspect.

You are no longer daddy and mommy’s little girl or boy. Most look forward to this day when they will be ready to review their options and get out and spread their wings. With all of this in mind shouldn’t this birthday be something really special? Why not have a birthday celebration that will be remembered for years to come? It is a time of transitioning from child to adult.

A Theme Party

Do you want something very special to commemorate this coming of age 21st birthday party as one to be remembered forever? If you are considering some type of a theme party, then ask the guests to remember what they wanted to be when they grew up and come to the party dressed as that occupation.

Did you want to be the first dancing ballerina on the moon? Then attend the party wearing a tutu and toe shoes with a space helmet on; or if you wanted to be a rodeo star consider going in chaps and holding one of those stick horses.

Ideas For Invitations

For a different idea and one that will add a little excitement to the birthday bash, have the invitations advise the guests to wear exactly what they were wearing when they opened the invitation.

Naturally, if you were not wearing anything there might be a slight problem showing up in your birthday suit and even some pajama’s may be a little on the risky side, just use your best judgment and everyone will enjoy a great birthday.

Everyone Dress Up As Mobsters In The Roaring 20s

Another unique way to celebrate a 21st birthday is to have everyone dress as mobsters, the women can be gun molls or flappers and you can try to find some imitation Tommy guns that were popular in the roaring 20s.

Of course, you can always go with an extremely formal birthday celebration where everyone dresses in tuxedos or ball gowns and incorporate some type of a ballroom dancing competition.

Hire A Dance Teacher

Since not everyone is going to know how to ballroom dance, consider having a dance teacher come in for the first part of the celebration and offer some tips and moves to the guests before the competition.

One more terrific idea is to have a masquerade party complete with gorgeous feathered masks for the ladies and Zorro type masks for the gentlemen with an unmasking at the end of the party.
