Frank Sinatra Party

party by anna

Frances Albert Sinatra was born on this day in 1915 in Hoboken, New Jersey. Over a decade has passed since we lost Ol' Blue Eyes at the age of 82, but his influence and music lives on. So tonight, toast to greatness and do things "his way." We're certain you will enjoy your night.

 

INVITATION TYPE

 

DECORATIONS

You'll want a space that is swanky, has a touch of class, and is even slightly dated. We suggest modeling your look after a swinging 1950's style cocktail party, as the 1950's brought the second coming of Sinatra's career and accounted for some of his greatest success. Two main essentials are needed for your décor:

  • Candles – preferably votives. Tea lights work, too, but they will burn out quickly. Keep the room dark and romantically lit by these miniscule bursts of light.
  • Glassware – almost all classic cocktails have a specific type of glass they should be served in. Make sure you have on hand the appropriate glassware for the different types of cocktails you will be serving. The glass is everything, so we do not recommend any disposables for this event.
  • In addition, you can have on hand posters, memorabilia, and biographical information.

 

FOOD AND DRINK MENU

 

 

ENTERTAINMENT

  • In addition to his extensive discography, Sinatra starred in many films, and even won an Academy Award for his performance in "From Here to Eternity." Here are a few more notable films:
    • Ocean's Eleven
    • Guys and Dolls
    • The Man with the Golden Arm
    • High Society

 

GAMES

Think Vegas. It's all about the gambling…


 

ATTIRE

  • Black Tie – full length gowns for women, tuxedos for men. You need to look your best!

 

LAST MINUTE TIPS

Light up some high quality cigars to top off the night.

And as always, remember to bring your camera!
