keeping themes classy- ideas?

[dancergirl586]

Hi all,

So i'm trying to figure out rush themes at the moment and have come up with the idea of celebrate around the world type thing...like sisterhood holds no bounds/borders. we always do a hawaiian theme so im keeping that and i really want to do mardi gras/carnivale and a fiesta type themes. the only problem im running in to is trying to keep it classy and not portray the image of "party around the world" so i was wondering if anyone had an ideas on how to decorate and stay in good respect. also i was looking for shirt ideas for the fiesta day.

im in alpha epsilon phi and want to call it "phi-esta" but i thikn alpha phi does that and i dont want to copy. also i cant seem to come up with good day theme titles.

if anyone could help me out that would be great!

You could always do something like a "Loving Sisters World Tour" and have each day be based around a sister's cultural background. For example, one day could be "AEPhis in Italy" if you have an Italian sister. The entire sorority could learn little tidbits about the culture and your sister could help bring it out in a non-cheesy way. If it's formal, have each girl "stamp" (write their name on) a picture of the country represented that day and that at Pref put all of the countries together on a big picture of the world. It would also help sisters have something to talk about because they could always say something like "I loved hanging out with you in Italy" and point to the place where the girl signed. You can even have the Greek letters spelled out in fish across the sea and mountains in the landscape so that when the world "came together" there was AEPhi.

Thats a really cute idea! I haven't been through recruitment yet, but that is something that would deffinitely catch my eye!

So my entire house would basically a 1620's England themed party?

Thanks for the compliment! Good luck going through recruitment! Have you started a thread yet?

No, I haven't started my thread yet. I like to write a lot so im afraid it would turn into a novel if I started one now . I'll probably start one in July or so.
