Divorce parties are all about shedding the past and celebrating the future. Your party can reflect that in the theme you choose. Themes might promote bonding with your friends or your newfound independence and empowerment. They should help you celebrate your new life and your reintroduction to single society.
Instructions
Select a Theme for Your Divorce Party
1. Decide what you're up for, whether it's a movie marathon, game night, martini tasting, costume party or singles rave. Divorce parties have no rules, so make your own.
2. Select a setting for your party. If you've just moved, invite friends to your new home and combine it with a housewarming. If you're in transition, choose a favorite restaurant, or have a beach party. If you need a change of scenery, hit the road for a destination divorce party. Some hotels are beginning to offer divorce party packages.
3. Select a theme based on an activity, like relaxation. Indulge in a spa day followed by a girls' night out.
4. Base your party on a movie, television show or song title, or broaden your theme to include several divorce-related movies and songs. Create a "divorce mix" of break-up songs like "I Will Survive" and "Hit the Road Jack," and play a continuous loop of movies from "The First Wives Club" to "The Break-up."
5. Have a martini or wine-tasting party.
6. Base your party on things you'd like to do in the future, like travel, or choose any festive theme. There are many websites that have an extensive list of party ideas (see Resources below).
