Hot Theme Party Kits for the Musically Inclined

Certain prom event themes bring a special dimension to the party, and that dimension is a particular genre or style of music. Here are some of our favorite prom theme kits for the “musically-inclined” that would create good vibrations for a post-prom party, too.

Rock Star Theme Decorating Kit. This kit hits striking visual notes in purple, blue and red with neon touches and features giant guitar pedestal, pyrotechnic and speaker standees reaching 8-10’ tall! Hang plenty of metallic star curtains and float guitar- and star-shaped mylar balloons with this kit.

All That Jazz Kit. Create a 1920s sidewalk lined with city street lights that leads to a ballroom bandstand. Dance amid flapper and jazz guy silhouettes, then take a break at a table dressed in navy, black and silver tableware and musical votives.

Disco Theme Decorations. Can you ever have enough glass mirror balls? We didn’t think so. Pick up table top disco balls in addition to the big ones you’ll find with the Boogie Arch and sequined columns in this glittering collection.

Hip Hop Hustle Theme Kit. Place these decorations in front of a blue spotlight background illustration, install a graffiti wall with a two toned brick patterned flat paper opposite, pull out some thick markers and start the music.

Twist the Night Away Kit 1950s Decorations. Fifties parties have been popular for at least 30 years. They’ve developed a style all their own and this kit hits all the right notes for the atmosphere you’re seeking. The drive-in is here, the muscle cars are here, the juke box is installed. Add a great mix of music, some malteds and a Rockin’ personalized banner.

Music is a prom must-have. You can’t dance without it! Music can make or break your prom, so choosing the right prom song is an important decision. Stumps Party has compiled a list of the top prom songs since 1920 to help you choose the right theme song and music for your event. Stumps Party has been in the business of helping you create the perfect prom since 1926, supplying decorations and personalized favors for 8 out of 10 American high schools each year. Proms are our passion and we want to help you create the perfect prom, right down to the music!

Looking through the list of prom songs and listening to samples can be a fun activity for your prom committee meetings. Look at all of the songs or choose a decade in order to find your prom’s theme song. Many of these songs are timeless pieces that students will still enjoy dancing to. You can even use this list to create a playlist for the DJ so that he or she has time to acquire them. A well-selected playlist of relevant songs adds an exciting and authentic feel to your prom.

You can also use the list to create a contest for students to win prom tickets. Generate a quiz asking students to match the prom song to the year it was most popular. Callenge students to match a lyric from the song to the song title. Choose the student with the most correct answers or enter all completed quizzes into a random drawing and award the winner with a pair of prom tickets, a restaurant gift certificate or other prom-related prizes! These activities will help students learn about prom traditions and get excited for their prom!

Whether you’re planning a 1920’s, 1950’s or other retro prom, this prom song list is a fantastic resource. Continue to build up your chosen prom theme through eye-catching publicity and unforgettable decorations. Create excitement with Stump Party customizable banners such as the 1920’s banner or the 50’s banner. Stumps Party has tons of decorations for these themes such as the All That Jazz decorations kit or our Rock Around the Clock decoration kit.
