Hunting Theme Party

By Mandy (Guest Post)

Our wedding was done in duck hunting and camouflage. I'm a redneck girl! Anyway we used our BRAND NEW sheets for table clothes and then used burlap and regular material. Our invitations were done with camouflage card stock and then a Sparkle Cream card stock was placed on top of that and glued down and then a cloudy cream colored over that tied to the others with raffia.

The grooms cake was a 2tiered camouflage *airbrushed* marbled cake and the topper was a sculptor I got at Hobby Lobby of 2 ducks kinna cuddling! TOO CUTE! And of course my bridal portraits were me in the barn *my great-grandpa's where we got married* with my boots and gun! Hope that helps for your decorations...try this for a cake www.sugarnspicebakery.com/images/Camo12.jpg or justcamousa.com That is where I got the paper for our invitations!

Where do you find camo burlap and brown netting? I love the idea about making the food area into a blind but I don't know where to get this material.

My husband is turning 60 on October 21, of course that is during DUCK SEASON so the party will be October 11. I am so NOT creative, so any ideas would be appreciated. Budget, invitations, table cloths, centerpieces, and food? Thanks

I am throwing a Hunting theme party this summer. I picked up some camo burlap and brown netting and am making a blind around the food area. It will have the netting on the top and door area, not only to make it authentic but to keep the bugs out as we will be out in the woods. I also got camo material and had runners made for the tables. We rolled up silverware with the napkins and tied them with rafia to make them look rustic. I took some pictures of bears and deer and had them blown up to life size and put them on cardboard so they would be life sized. We are working on the cake design now.

Great minds think alike. I am doing the same, but no tables. I am not doing much for decorations, because I am buying him a new gun and browning safe which will be delivered during the party. There will be many kids at the party so we are doing kid friendly games...bingo, potato sack race, kid shoot the deer with the arrow like pin the tail on the donkey. Good Luck to you, everyone you have given great websites to shop from...casino night theme also look at http://www.shindigz.com http://www.partycheap.com and http://www.aperfectpartyzone.com

Two different themes seem a little much. I would just stick w/ the casino night and use black and white stuff like balloons..etc. Keep it simple. Doing the casino and a hunting theme are two great ideas on their own. Good luck and have fun!

I would go with a camoflauge theme. (My husband is a big hunter too) I have gotten wrapping paper from the dollar store that had a plain brown back you could decorate like camo for table cloths or here is a link to camo party supplies. http://partysuppliesworld.com/pages/PartyThemes/camouflage.html

I'm sure you could find more stuff. google camo party supplies.

Good Luck and let us know how it turns out.

how about having the guests decorate themselves. they could come dressed as turkeys or hunters or something. and what about thanksgiving pictures for decorating. all the turkeys that are already cooked anyway.

i dont think id spend much on decorating.i think the tables and maybe some balloons along with food and drinks enough. its simple and once they get into playing cards noone will notice but you sure will when its time to clean up

You could go with black for the big 40.You could check at the dollar stores and see what colors they had in Napkins and plates.You could do a camoflouge decor also.
