While you can use the season itself to plan and decorate your autumn party, your entertainment will be unique and memorable if you plan it around a specific theme. Luckily, with color choices that come naturally with falling mercury and changing leaves, choosing inspiration for your fall party is as simple as looking out of the window. We list a few of our favorite fall party theme ideas.

Apple themed party
An apple themed party during autumn months can be exciting. The abundance of this tasty fruit in fall makes menu planning and decoration a breeze. Place loads of apples around the party area. For centerpieces, put few apples in a bowl along with some colorful autumn leaves and cinnamon sticks. For kids, cut the fruit in half and carve them into various shapes such as, stars or hearts. Bobbing for apples is another fun and exciting, timeless fall party game, both for kids and adults. Serve apple pie or tarts for dessert and other dishes that can be worked around with apples.
Harvest party
Host a bash that embraces the spirit of the fall harvest. Make lots of dishes using produce of the season. Pumpkin pie and Turkey are perfect food choices for a harvest themed party. For decorations, stick to autumn color palette such as deep red, brown, orange and yellow. Additionally, incorporate farming elements such as wheat and corn centerpieces.

Pumpkin themed party
Pumpkins add style, creativity, and fun to any fall party. While, its seeds and pulp are always good for eating, you can use them to decorate your upcoming seasonal bash. You can use small pumpkins alone for dinner table centerpieces or group them with gourds or other small squashes. Moreover, you can carve them out to make unique decorations. For instance, in a hollow pumpkin, fit in a plant liner inside and plant small flowers like pansies. You can also host a pumpkin-carving contest for kids and adults. Make sure to bake the pumpkin seeds for crunchy, evening party treat.

The nice thing about themed parties at this time of year is that we can look to nature for decorations, foods and even serving pieces (a pumpkin shell would make a great bowl). If we add in other Eco-friendly utensils, glasses, etc., we’ve truly honored nature and the season! Thanks for these great ideas!
