Treasure the Night with an Arabian Themed Prom

Take your prom to the romance of 1001 Nights with an Arabian theme! This theme is a fun new twist on the destination prom and is perfect for lush colors and beautiful accents. Stumps Prom has tons of themed prom supplies to get your event underway.

Our Treasure the Night Prom Theme Kit is a lovely choice. The kit includes an arch, a Treasure the Night tent, a tree, a metal lamp, and a World of Enchantment backdrop.

Create a gorgeous setting for your Treasure the Night prom using jeweled tone gossamer in a variety of colors. Cover the walls with a deep color such as blue or purple. For a stunning ceiling treatment, attach gossamer in a variety of red, orange, and purple, to a wooden hoop and suspend the hoop from the ceiling. Then, swag the gossamer from the hoop in the center of the room to the walls. This creates an impressive tent that will look like an Arabian sunset for this theme.

Start using your Treasure the Night Kit to decorate by setting up the Treasure the Night Arch. The metal arch is 13 ½ feet high and 5 feet 8 inches wide. It’s accented with shimmera fabric, twinkle stars and cutout moons. It’s perfect for an entrance to your event and for taking commemorative photos under.

Create a focal point using the Treasure the Night Tent. The tent is made from chiffon hung from a metal structure and stands 10 feet high and 6 feet in diameter. Each tent includes red and gold chiffon and twinkle lights for adding a soft glow.

Add a Treasure the Night Tree for a scenic accent. The wire tree is 7 foot 6 inches tall and 2 feet wide and is embellished with twistees for the trunk and fringe gossamer for the leaves. Our lighted palm trees also make fun accents for this theme. Set them up around your dance floor for a festive glow that fits the theme.

Another way to add a glow to your decorations is with the Enchanted Metal Lamp. The lamp is made from metal and glass and is 1 foot 6 ½ inches long and 1 foot 2 inches wide by 4 feet 10 inches tall.

For a fun accent add a Genie Bottle Standee. The standee is over 7 feet tall and is fun for students to take pictures by!

Travel to Romance with an Arabian Theme Prom

To create your Arabian themed décor, choose the Arabian Paradise Prom Theme Kit.

Add some palm trees to your Arabian décor! There are many different styles of palm trees available—inflatable palm trees, foil palm trees, lighted palm trees, felt palm trees, or palm tree murals. You can use palm trees and palm tree patterned gossamer to create areas of the prom designated for chatting and taking photos rather than dancing. Light these areas with red or purple paper lanterns for a cool effect.

Tables

Carry the regal look of the Arabian Paradise Kit and the freshness of palm trees over to your table decorations. For starters, cover your tables with red, purple or gold gossamer in deeptones or metallics. You can use the gossamer to decorate the chairs too by making chair bows out of the material. For that purpose, gossamer streamers may be easier to work with. Accent the edge of the table with a palm tree border or festooning in a contrasting color. For table decorations, add tropical ti leaves or coconut votive holders. Top it off with a palm tree centerpiece.

You can also make your own centerpiece to match the peacock standee in the Arabian Paradise Kit. You’ll need Styrofoam balls, purple or red gossamer and peacock feathers from your local craft store or zoo. Stick the feathers, cut to a variety of heights, into a Styrofoam ball cut in half, dome size up. Then, surround the ball in a loose wrap of the gossamer to hide the Styrofoam. It’s simple, easy and gorgeous. Just make sure the feathers are clean first!

Photo Setting

Create a photo setting to match your theme so when students look at their prom photos years from now they’ll remember how spectacular the whole event was! Try setting up a miniature version of the Arabian Paradise Kit for a photo setting. Select certain elements of the kit such as the peacock standee or genie’s bottle standee and set them next to an Arabian Paradise column or two. Add an Arabian metal lantern and an LED tealight and you have a beautiful photo op!

Memory Booklets

Memory booklets can be a treasure trove of information about your prom night. Check out our tips for how to create a fantastic memory booklet! There’s a memory booklet perfect for your Arabian theme. The Tropical Night Booklet features a pair of palm trees and a smattering of stars in silver foil on a black booklet. The booklet features your custom wording and is held together by a silver cord and tassel. Students will treasure it for years to come!

Favors

Finish the night right with favors fit for the sultan himself. Great favors for an Arabian theme include key tags with palm tree charms, photo frames with palm tree charms or imprints, and silver tropics cell phone charms, all of which can be customized with your prom slogan and logo!
