Toga Theme Party

The Toga theme party is very popular within college dorms due to it’s cost effectiveness and simplicity.

The Toga theme party is supposed to replicate the decadent and profligate parties held in ancient Rome and Greece where anything went. Couples would frequently retire to their respective corners to fornicate with one another. But throwing a Toga theme party is your chance to get incredibly drunk with your buddy’s and acquire a reputation as the party man amongst your peers.

Before we go on, if you really want to make sure that you throw the best party ever, then I recommend Theme Party Secrets to you to make sure that you and your guests have most awesome time!

Take a look at the following ideas for your Toga theme party:

1. Costumes – The heart and soul of any Toga party is the costumes. If you aint wearin a Toga, you aint comin in! And this should be stated on your invitations. A Toga is essentially a piece of linen or cloth, usually a bed sheet. Although you can purchase a Toga if you like. You should

wrap it about 1.5 times around your waist and then throw the rest over your shoulder. This is for both guys and girls!!! Additional pieces of the outfit are sandals and a leaf “laurel” head piece. Belts can be worn to keep the Toga in place.

2. Props – You need to try and recreate an ancient Greek or Roman setting. This will be budget dependant, but little touches like busts, terra cotta urns and columns will go a long way. You can easily light loads of candles and spread them around the room. Finally, get yourself a copy of National Lampoon’s Animal House and play it on a loop at your Toga theme party. It’s a great movie and will give you plenty of ideas also.

3. Music – OK I’m realistic here. To have a truly authentic Toga theme party, you’d have to play classical music to make it seem real. But let’s face it…You’re probably not going to!!! So just play whatever rock music you fancy!

4. Food – To be as authentic as possible you should serve oysters on ice. Have plenty of grapes, still on their stalks and try and get them fed to you like in countless movies. To be less authentic, you could have a BBQ. Burgers and hotdogs will be popular, just make sure that whoever makes them wears an apron over his Toga.

5. Drink – In the film National Lampoon’s Animal House they drink beer from kegs. So there is one suggestion for you! But back in ancient Greece it would have been wine. Have your guests bring a bottle of wine either red or white.

6. Invitations – You should be creative with your invites! Send them out on cut outs of togas or cocktail glasses! Also you should create a Facebook event page. As your guests will be able to see everyone who’s invited, this typically increases attendance levels. You’ll also be able to keep everyone updated with any changes and get them excited for the toga party in advance.
