Why choose a Cruise Theme Party?
Ahoy, mateys! You’ve set your sights on a cruise theme party for your upcoming event in Chicago, and here at MDM Entertainment, we wholeheartedly approve! But why exactly is this theme such a fantastic choice? Let’s explore into the many reasons why a cruise theme party is guaranteed to set sail for success:
Widely Appealing: Cruises offer something for everyone. From relaxation and sightseeing to vibrant nightlife and exciting entertainment, a cruise caters to a wide range of interests. This translates perfectly to your cruise theme party. It’s a theme that resonates with all ages and backgrounds, ensuring a fun-filled experience for your entire guest list.
Versatility and Customization: Unlike some themes that can feel limiting, a cruise theme party decor offers incredible versatility. You can tailor the experience to your specific preferences. Want to highlight the luxurious aspects of a cruise? We can create an elegant and sophisticated atmosphere. Craving a more playful and tropical vibe? We can transport your guests to a Caribbean paradise. The possibilities are endless, allowing you to create a party that perfectly reflects your vision.
Memorable Moments: A cruise creates unique and unforgettable moments, whether it’s a romantic sunset on the deck or an adrenaline-filled excursion. The same applies to your cruise theme party!
Welcome Aboard: Setting the Stage for Your Cruise Theme Party Decor
The first impression is everything, and your cruise theme party needs a grand entrance to set the tone for the evening. Transform the entrance into a grand cruise ship embarkation point. Hang a festive banner that reads “Welcome Aboard!” and deck the halls with blue and white streamers, mimicking the vast ocean and crisp nautical flags. Hang inflatable life preservers to create a playful, whimsical atmosphere.
The Heart of the Ship: A Sparkling Welcome Bar
No cruise is complete without a well-stocked bar, and your event shouldn’t be either! Create a dedicated welcome bar area to greet guests with refreshing cocktails and mocktails. Use a bamboo shelf to display glasses and garnishes. Stock the bar with brightly colored cocktails in hurricane glasses, garnished with cocktail umbrellas and tiny paper pineapples. Decorate the bar area with nautical elements like inflatable life preservers for an authentic cruise ship feel.

Ports of Call: Creating Unique Themed Areas
A cruise offers a variety of destinations, and your party can too! Divide your venue into distinct “ports of call” each with its own unique decor. Here are some ideas to get you started:
Tropical Paradise: Port Jamaica
Transport your guests to the vibrant shores of Jamaica with a festive bamboo stall offering a selection of cigars (think candy cigars for a non-smoking event). Create a relaxed lounge area with our collection of furniture, also add plush pillows adorned with a map of Jamaica. Dot the space with our collection of potted artificial trees, adding a touch of lush greenery.
For a touch of luxury, add a cigar bar with plush velvet chairs and tables adorned with crystal ashtrays. Offer a selection of premium cigars for guests to enjoy as they take in the beautiful views from your faux-cruise ship deck. Add an elegant touch with personalized matchboxes or cigar bands, a wooden sign with our marquee letters proudly spells out “Cigar Bar,” welcoming guests to indulge in the pleasures of fine tobacco within this cozy retreat.
Fiesta Fun: Port Mexico
Turn up the excitement with a lively Mexican port vibe. Hang colorful paper banners overhead and adorn the space with vibrant swings. Transform the area with our dance floor, but make it not a typical one—instead, make it adorned with playful inflatable pool toys like flamingos and beach balls. Imagine swings scattered around for guests to sway to the beat, adding a whimsical touch to the fiesta atmosphere.
Tantalize taste buds with authentic street tacos, featuring savory meats, fresh veggies, and zesty salsas. Guests can customize their tacos with a variety of toppings, adding to the fun and flavor of the event. And of course, no fiesta is complete without sombreros and sunglasses, encouraging everyone to embrace the festive spirit and dance the night away!
Bahamas Bliss: Port Bahamas
Invite your guests to bask in the beauty of the Bahamas with ocean wave props creating a coastal ambiance. Inflate sea creatures like octopuses, sharks, and seahorses to add an element of whimsy and wonder. Serve refreshing Bahama Mama cocktails and fresh seafood bites, transporting everyone to island paradise.
Sweet Treats: A Candy Bar with Marquee Letters
No cruise theme party decor is complete without a delightful dessert spread. Create a dedicated “candy bar” area adorned with our marquee letters spelling out “Sugar Wave.” Fill clear glass jars with colorful candies like gummy bears, saltwater taffy, and chocolate seashells. Offer an assortment of cupcakes decorated with fondant anchors, life preservers, and miniature palm trees.
LED Bars: Setting Sail with Color
For a modern twist on the traditional bar, opt for our LED bars that can change color and create a dynamic atmosphere. With a variety of colors and patterns to choose from, you can match the bar’s lighting to your chosen theme or keep it rotating for an ever-changing visual experience. The LED bars are also perfect for highlighting your tropical drinks and creating a vibrant ambiance.
Entertainment: Live Music Sets the Mood
Cruise theme party decor is only half the equation. Elevate the atmosphere with live entertainment that complements the theme. Hire a band to play lively Caribbean tunes or a jazz quartet for a sophisticated ambiance. Consider a strolling magician or caricature artist to add an interactive element for guests.
Photobooth Fun: Capturing Memories at Sea
Complete the cruise experience with our photobooth set up in the style of a ship’s deck, complete with porthole cutouts and a hand-painted backdrop of the ocean. Provide props like captain hats, sailor scarves, and life preserver rings for guests to use while taking photos. Add custom photo booth strips with your event’s name and date as a keepsake for guests to take home.
Sail Away to A Yacht Rock Party!
Maybe a cruise isn’t your cup of tea, how about your very own Yacht Rock party then? Imagine escaping daily life, setting sail on a luxurious yacht, and enjoying the bliss of a tropical paradise. Picture yourself relaxing to the rhythm of the waves, sipping a cool cocktail, immersed in the laid-back vibes of the 70s and 80s soft rock. But if renting a yacht isn’t possible, don’t worry! With the right Yacht Rock party decor and entertainment, you can turn any event space into the ultimate Yacht Rock party!
Set sail for smooth vibes and tropical flair with a Yacht Rock party! Music sets the tone as the captain of the evening, whether you choose a live band that specializes in yacht rock classics, bringing a nostalgic and smooth vibe to your event, or a DJ who expertly spins a mix of smooth hits, ensuring the dance floor is never empty, the right music selection can transform an ordinary evening into an unforgettable experience.
Create a breezy atmosphere with blue and white linens, nautical accents, palm trees, and a touch of tiki. Don’t forget the disco ball for dancing under the shimmering lights. Decorate with plush seating, fairy lights, vinyl records, and a “Welcome Aboard” sign. Greet guests with refreshing cocktails like a “Peg” Margarita or a “Ride Like the Wind” Daiquiri at a signature cocktail station. Fill a candy bar with classic treats and cupcakes decorated with nautical and beachy themes. Incorporate LED bars for a dynamic lighting experience. Hire a strolling magician or caricature artist, set up a ship-deck themed photo booth with props, and capture the night’s memories with a designated photo area.
So what are you waiting for? Hoist the anchor and set sail on your very own Yacht Rock adventure. Bon Voyage!
