Event Prop Hire
If you decide to go big on a theme for your party, you might want to hire some props. I recently photographed a birthday party where they did just that and they really packed a punch! With an “Around the World” theme, a quiet island in the middle of the River Thames just outside of London was transformed into a magical sightseeing around the world trip by Event Prop Hire, themed event prop specialists. Guests young and old were so delighted to spot the mini sights of Pisa, Paris, Egypt, Venice, New York and St Petersburg on their way into the party venue entrance.
If you are organising a party but can’t decide on a theme, Event Prop Hire have revealed their most popular theme requests. Their top themes are jam packed full of fabulous props and decor, so whether you choose a one off statement piece or want to create a fully immersive experience for your guests at your next event, they have the props to help.
Choosing a theme
With literally thousands of themes to choose from it can be hard to decide. According to Event Prop Hire these are the most popular:
Alice in Wonderland Party
Alice in Wonderland is a very popular theme for a party or event. With props including giant white rabbits, giant cupcakes and fantastic table centres you can create a truly spectacular Mad hatter tea party.
1920’s Party
A 1920’s or Great Gatsby themed party is perennially popular and with props such as flapper girl images to art deco starbursts you can make your roaring twenties party go with a swing.
Hollywood Party
The glitz and glamour associated with Hollywood makes this an eternally popular theme for a whole range of events and parties. With red carpets, giant clapperboards or award statues, film cameras and director’s chairs you could party in your own Hollywood movie set.
Seaside Party
Seaside party themes provides guests with loads of fun seaside photo opportunities, whatever the time of year. With seaside themed props such as giant buckets & spades, to beach huts, through to furniture or a pier entranceway your guests can enjoy your party and a little holiday at the same time.
Circus Party
Circus themes give you the opportunity to create a fun and whacky atmosphere for guests with clown faces and animals galore.
1980’s Party
The 80s are remembered for being full of colour and music and is a popular choice for fun-filled parties. With 80s props such as giant ghetto blasters, giant rubiks cubes and 80s style mobile phones you can create the perfect nostalgic event. Remember to ask your mum if she kept her aerobics gear.
English Country Garden Party
There is something beautiful and elegant about an English Country Garden party. To create a quintessential English feel for your event you could hire giant replica trees, elegant furniture, impressive fountains, box hedge seating and ornate stone effect gates. Remember to pack the scones, oh and the Pimm’s of course!
Caribbean Party
If you want to bring the warmth of the Caribbean to your event all year round, you could opt for a Caribbean party theme. With flowing rum, some reggae jams and some great beach party props, including beach bars, surfboards, palm trees & giant cocktails you can bring the islands to your party!

James Bond Party
Due to its classic styling a Secret Agent themed party is always popular. There are so many props that would really help to create the look for your 007 event or party, from hand crafted replica DB5 Aston Martin car to Casino styled props or British themed furniture.
