Is your favorite dude old enough to be considered “vintage”? Help him celebrate turning another year older with a Vintage Dude birthday party! We have supplies for those milestone birthdays like 40, 50, and 60, and general Vintage Dude party supplies for all of those years in-between.
Without further ado, here are some party ideas to go along with a Vintage Dude party theme!
Vintage Dude Decor Ideas
- Think refined with a vintage twist when it comes to your decor. The Vintage Dude party theme is inspired by a whiskey bottle label, so for the color palate, focus on velvet black and a complementary color like chrome, red, blue, or olive green.
- Let natural wood or leather tabletops speak for themselves, or cover them with basic black tablecloths. For centerpieces, use a small pile of antique books and top them with vintage model cars, planes, tools, or any other “mantiques.”
- Dress up the room with some classic party supplies, including Vintage Dude banners, metallic balloons, and streamers in complementary colors.
- If you’re throwing the party outside, hang string globe lights around for ambiance. Also set around lots of candles and line the perimeter of the yard with citronella torches.
Vintage Dude Party Menu
Make sure your spread of food is full of any guy’s favorites. Here are food ideas for appetizers, main, desserts, and drinks:
Appetizers:
- Hot wings
- Finger foods like jalapeno poppers, mozzarella sticks, mushroom caps, onion straws, and quesadillas
- Mixed nuts, pretzels, and chips
Main:
- Fire up the grill for this dude’s party! Grill the guest of honor’s favorite, whether that’s steak, burgers, or brats and metts
- Grilled vegetables like onions, peppers, squash and corn
- Macaroni and cheese
- Mashed potatoes
- Dinner rolls
- Another main course idea is to let each of your guests put together his or her own grilled hobo dinner. To do this, give each guest a square of heavy duty foil. Let them fill their foil with their desired ingredients. Some ideas are: hamburger meat, sausage, potatoes, onions, carrots, mushrooms, bell peppers, corn, garlic cloves, butter, olive oil, seasoned salt, creole seasoning, salt, and pepper. Write each guest’s name on their hobo dinner with a permanent market and grill it until thoroughly cooked. Your guests will love these personalized dinners
Dessert:
- Bourbon birthday cake
Drinks:
- Whiskey is a must to keep with the theme of the party
- Also serve a clear liquor, such as vodka or gin
- Craft beers
- Soda, iced tea, and coffee
