Highlighter Party Theme
Wow your guests with an unexpected event.
About the Theme
Looking for an exciting theme to break you out of a party rut? Go for something bold, bright and technicolor, like a neon-highlighter bash. Direct guests to come dressed in white with bright neon accents or accessories, and follow suit with the decor. Once the sun sets, turn off the lights and turn on the blacklights, transforming your event into a whole new glow-in-the-dark scene.
There are two possible dress codes for this theme: you can go formal, or you can advise guests to wear white clothes that they don’t mind getting dirty. For the latter, provide highlighter pens once the blacklights come on, turning white shirts into a canvas for highlighter drawings.

Warehouse
Warehouses make the perfect spot for such a spunky event. They’re large enough to hold plenty of guests and you can crank up the music. Just make sure to consider measures for quality acoustics, if your space is mostly cement it will magnify the sound.
