The Mexican theme party or Fiesta (meaning feast or festival) happens many times throughout the year not only in Mexico but much of the western USA mainly on public holidays. The Mexican party is an opportunity for dancing, singing into the night and eating delicious Mexican food.
Take a look at some of the Mexican party ideas below:
Mexican Party Invitations
Don’t neglect your invitations, they are an imporant part of any theme party. For a Mexican party I would send out invitations on print outs of some of the following:
1. Sombrero
2. Poncho
3. Yosemite Sam
4. Mexican Flag
5. A Chili Pepper
6. Send out mini sombreros and attach your invites to them!
In addition you should create a Facebook group for your Mexican party! This will ensure everyone can see all who’s attending! This typically increases attendance levels! Other than that though, a Facebook group for your party will enable you to stay in touch with everybody in an easy and fun way as the party draws close. You can answer any questions, take peoples ideas and hype everyone up for the party. Finally, a Facebook group will enable you all to upload your videos and photos at the end of the party. You’ll be able to tag everyone in the images and this is a lot of fun. This will be a permanent reminder to your party.
Mexican Party Costumes
For the ladies, a traditional Mexican Fiesta Dress will be expected. They come in a wide range of colors and designs and you should take good care to find one you like. You should also get some accessories such as a headpiece and a Lei (necklace). It’s an opportunity for you to get dolled up and make yourself look incredible!
For the guys it’s a chance to wear a full Serape, Mexican Poncho and Sombrero. Perhaps even a couple of pistols in your Texas belt (think Yosemite Sam)! As an alternative…You can dress up as Zorro!
Mexican Party Decorations
As with any theme party it’s your decorations that will really make or break your party by creating an awesome atmosphere. The more you put in, the more you’ll get out! Have a look at the following Mexican decoration ideas, you can pick and choose the ones you like and that are in your budget:
1. Have a large table centre piece (where the taco’s are going to be) you could have a large Sombrero in the middle.
2. In fact get plenty of Sombreros and scatter them round at strategic places.
3. Scatter bright red chili peppers around the table.
4. You should get your hands on several large Mexico Flags and hang them up all over the place
5. Also get some mini flags too.
6. Get some green, white and red balloons to match the flags, hang them up in threes around your venue.
7. Go to the local garden centre and pick up a cactus or 12.
8. You can also get a big Inflatable Cactus.

Mexican Party Music
The Mexican theme party is all about music and dancing the Samba. Mariachi is the music of Mexico and Luis Miguel (Mexico’s most famous singer) released Mexico en la Piel
Mexican Party Food
The food is going to be a big hit at your Mexican party. You need to get plenty of taco’s and tortillas and allow your guests to choose their own filling from the chilli, beef, salad and Enchilada sauces. It’s all about having a variety of Chilli Dishes so that your guests can pick and choose and try different things.
Mexican Party Drink
Your Mexican party would be nothing without plenty of Corona and lime, so stock up. Margaritas are the popular mix drink of choice. Also get plenty of tequila as this is going to be very popular with the men and ladies, but make sure it’s good tequila.
