About the Theme
There are plenty of ways to celebrate summer, but few compare to a proper pool party. Sun on your face, refreshing cocktail in hand and chart-topping hits flowing from the speakers—which reminds us, we’ll be on standby waiting for our invitation.
There are plenty of food and décor ideas for this party, but if you wanted to take it to the next level there are a few themes you could layer over it. For example, a white-themed pool party would give your event a sophisticated Hamptons feel, or a Cancun cabana theme would lend some tropical beach vibes.

Entertainment
Beach Band
Pool parties and beach vibes don’t necessarily have to go together, but if you want to incorporate the two in a more subtle way, use music.
Entertainment
Temporary Tattoo Artist
Attire is likely at a minimum for a pool party: shorts, T-shirts, swimwear and so on. So why not have some fun with temporary tattoos? Guests can “dress up” with designs.
Food
Fruit Pizza
Not only is fruit pizza delicious, it’s basically a decoration for your food table thanks to all the bright colors from kiwi, blueberries, raspberries, pineapple and strawberries.
Beverage
Hurricane Cocktails
Rum, fruit juice and grenadine make up this sweet, poolside staple. Serve on the rocks or blend it together for guests to enjoy slushie style.
