Obviously I would reword them but you get the idea of what I'm asking. In other words, is picking a specific date bad because then they can just say "oh sorry we can't that day"? And is it bad to mention a specific theme because they may not like it but they might've liked another one that I didn't get to mention?

Picking one specific date is bad. You might offer a couple options or leave it more general like "one Thursday in September"?
Mentioning a specific them is bad for the same reason. Maybe they just had a party with that theme? Maybe that isn't the thing this year? Worse - maybe you have an AWESOME idea, and they already have a match planned with someone else. They will gladly borrow your fabulous idea and go have that party with the guys down the street.
