Cinco de Mayo Party The trick to having a really great party is to plan ahead. That way you can do most of the work in advance and have plenty of time when your guests arrive to enjoy your own celebration. Invitations Let your guests know you're having a Cinco de Mayo party with colorful invitations. Use preprinted invitations or colored paper and pens, confetti-decorated backgrounds, festive stickers or travel brochure illustrations. Or send out e-invitations for quick results. (Just make sure your guests receive their invitations four weeks before the event.)  DecorationsDecorate your celebration for fun with serapes and bright shawls, colorful dishes or paper plates, and serving dishes and trays made from Mexican pottery. As a centerpiece, try splashy crepe paper flowers in a glass or earthen vase or pile cascarones (confetti eggs) in a shiny copper bowl. Top it all off with a display of the red, green and white flag of Mexico. Olé! Music Background music is essential. Tune to salsa and tejano music on popular radio stations. Guitar and mariachi tunes also liven up the occasion. Food Decide if you want catered party trays, finger foods, a full meal, food you prepare, potluck or a combination of any. Then visit your local H-E-B to find a delicious selection of precooked meats, imported and domestic foods, deli options and other fresh alternatives. Photo Op Don't forget the camera and film! You also may want to set out a few disposable cameras for creative fun or designate an official photographer or video person. |
