Arabian Nights Party Ideas

Here are some great Arabian Nights party ideas to help you plan an enchanting evening with a Moroccan theme. Rub your genie lamp, grab your magic carpet and take a ride into the mysterious and magical Arabian Nights!

Arabian Nights Party Decoration

• The overall color theme at an Arabian Nights party should be rich and vibrant hues such as reds, golds, oranges, and purples. Create the look of a palace by draping fabric in these colors from the ceiling and the walls to create a tent.

• Scatter Persian rugs throughout your party area to replicate magic carpets.

• Drape tables using organza fabric in rich gold, deep purple and red for tablecloths.

• Use treasure chests filled with faux jewels and gold coins as lavish table centerpieces. These can also serve as party favors for guests to take home.

• Genie bottles and lamps placed throughout the party area also help add to the atmosphere. Use touches of gold wherever you can on your tabletop, perhaps in things such as your plates or with the addition of golden jeweled goblets.
