Styling tips
One Stylish Party shares its top tips for pulling off this event.
Tip 1
Set the tone with a modern fiesta invitation. Keep the design minimal and bring in personality with the use of bold fonts and colorful mini tassel details. Be sure to relay any info your guests might need to know, such as the dress code (I asked my guests to wear white).
Tip 2
Choose an unexpected color palette for your fiesta, paired with traditional Mexican decorations. The easiest way to personalize an overdone party theme is to change up the colors that are typically associated with it. For my fiesta, I choose a mostly white color pallet with pops of mint green and pink. To ensure it still looked like a fiesta, I still sourced many Mexican decorations, such as papel picado, piñatas and maracas, but only in the set party colors.
Tip 3
Get creative with the florals. Incorporate bright, seasonal blooms in organic arrangements to give your fiesta a chic, feminine vibe. Accent the floral arrangements with small potted cacti that can be displayed on the tablescape, appetizer table and bar cart.
Tip 4
Serve classic Mexican appetizers and cocktails that everyone loves. There’s no need to re-invent the wheel with developing your party menu. There is something about a classic margarita that feels so right at a fiesta. And who doesn’t love guacamole and tacos? Keep it simple and pick tried and true recipes that you know your guests will enjoy.
Tip 5
Bring the party to life with a festive music playlist. Also, be sure to include fun interactive elements, such as maracas, which are fun for dancing or for photo ops.
