When looking for 60th birthday party ideas, start by figuring out how you want to celebrate the special occasion.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Simple gatherings will require less effort upfront while more elaborate affairs may involve working with a professional party planner or venues. If you\u2019re hosting a huge event, make sure to start the planning process 3 to 4 months ahead of time to make sure everything is in order. For simpler, laid-back celebrations, you can start planning anywhere from a week to a month in advance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/party-planning\">planning a party<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> requires some effort, it\u2019s an easy-to-handle task if you break down the process into smaller steps. Here\u2019s a quick run-through of how to plan a 60th birthday party from choosing a theme to decorating the space.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Pick a Theme<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Themed parties are not only a blast but they also make planning the big day a little easier. Once you have a theme in mind, you can create a cohesive event with coordinating birthday party decorations, invitations, and party favors. Here are some 60th birthday party ideas and themes to celebrate this milestone.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Black and White Party<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Celebrate the big day with a <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thespruce.com\/black-and-white-party-etiquette-1216516\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">black and white party<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This theme is elegant and sophisticated, plus it makes for a sleek and easy-to-manage dress code! You can host a small virtual event where guests are encouraged to dress in black and white for your Zoom call or do an in-person event at a ballroom for something more upscale.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Casino Night<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another great 60th birthday party idea is a <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/casino-theme-party\">casino night<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. You and your loved ones can get dressed up and have a roaring good time while letting loose with a few games of poker or roulette. You can adapt this for socially distanced event by playing casino games online, or you can perhaps plan a real-life casino birthday trip to Las Vegas or Atlantic City.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Decade Party<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feeling nostalgic and want to celebrate an era gone by? Relive an era from the past that was extra special. Don your flare jeans and a groovy flower top for a 70s disco night or grab some high-top sneakers, splatter paint, and metallic attire for a lively <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/nineties-theme-party\">90s theme party<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. For a luxe touch, you can\u2019t go wrong with a Roaring 20s or a <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/great-gatsby-party\">Great Gatsby party<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Diamond Jubilee<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make your celebration a royal affair with a diamond jubilee just like the royal family. Originally used to mark 60th anniversaries, <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.history.com\/news\/queen-victorias-diamond-jubilee\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Queen Victoria<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> hosted a diamond jubilee to celebrate her 60th birthday. This 60th birthday party theme is all about glitz and glamour. Think shimmering diamonds, metallic attire, and sparkling glasses of champagne.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Set the Scene<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you choose a party theme, it\u2019s time to think about decor that can set the stage for a wonderful celebration. Start by examining your event space \u2014 whether that\u2019s your living room for a Zoom call or a rented event space. Consider what guests will see when they arrive, where they\u2019ll eat if you\u2019re serving a meal, and where they\u2019ll mingle with one another.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Incorporate themed decor in these spaces to play up your 60th birthday. For a casino night, you can set up card tables throughout the room and adorn them with poker chips and arrange dim, moody lighting.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For a black and white party, you may want neutral-hued ostrich feathers mixed in with the two-tone decor while a diamond jubilee calls for a glittering entrance adorned with a birthday banner or birthday sign.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To celebrate a Roaring 20s theme, you can use glam decor that recalls the Art Deco mood of the era and glimmering rose gold for a sophisticated air.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An array of 60th birthday decorations will punch up any party, so don\u2019t skimp on this step. Consider using classic party decor items such as balloons, confetti, pom poms, and streamers. You can also create a more elaborate atmosphere with centerpieces, photo booths, party games, and personalized party favors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hosting a 60th birthday party with stunning decor can be as time and labor-intensive as you want. Create DIY decor to save a little money or buy party supplies from your local party store to save time. You can also find printable templates and decor as well as party supplies online from sites like <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.etsy.com\/market\/60th_birthday_decorations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Etsy<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/60-Party-Decorations\/s?k=60+Party+Decorations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Have Fun With Party Activities<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-8794\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image4-14.jpg\" alt=\"60th birthday party ideas: Friends and family smiling while holding sparklers\" width=\"850\" height=\"566\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image4-14.jpg 875w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image4-14-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image4-14-850x567.jpg 850w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image4-14-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image4-14-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To entertain your guests on the day of the event, make sure you\u2019ve planned some in-person or <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/virtual-party-games\">virtual party games<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and activities guests can partake in. You can pair these activities with your theme \u2014 like showing off your best dance moves from the 20s for a Great Gatsby theme or playing card games for a casino party theme.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another fun idea includes trivia with questions focused around the year or decade the guest of honor was born. You can ask questions or offer fun facts about the most popular singers or movies from the era and offer prizes for those who get the most correct answers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to games, you can also set up a special moment to recognize the guest of honor. You can play a slideshow of photos sharing some of the best moments over the years. You can also have the guest of honor or loved ones deliver a speech to celebrate the momentous occasion.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Indulge in Delicious Treats<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When hosting a 60th birthday party, think about whether you want to serve appetizers or a full meal. Keep in mind that the more food you want to serve, the more complex the planning will be. You can choose to make all the food yourself, order from your favorite restaurant, or work with a professional caterer depending on the complexity of the event and your preferences.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No birthday party is complete without a few sweet treats. Whether you have an elaborate birthday cake, a dessert table spread, or a tower of mini cupcakes, you can have a little something for everyone.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the guest of honor has a sense of humor when it comes to the milestone celebration, consider funny cake toppers with sayings like \u201cover the hill.\u201d You can also use cake toppers \u2014 such as cardstock cutouts \u2014 that pair well with the party theme.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Make It Virtual<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Need to throw a 60th birthday celebration, but can\u2019t get everyone together because of <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/social-distancing-events\">social distancing<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> rules or because everyone lives far away? No problem! You can make minor tweaks to most of these ideas so you can host a virtual event instead.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For food, you can order special treats and have them delivered to friends and family attending the virtual party. Most major cities have food delivery options from companies like <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instacart.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instacart<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ubereats.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">UberEats<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. You can also ask guests to order their own food and drinks the day of the event and share a toast together during the virtual party. (A <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/virtual-happy-hour\">virtual happy hour<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> could also be a fun way to ring in 60!)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For decor, consider preparing decorations or party favors for all of your guests and mail them out a few weeks before the virtual birthday party. Alternatively, you can send links to printable decor from sites like <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/chicfetti.com\/file-category\/parties\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Chicfetti<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and have guests print out their own decor. Party activities like trivia and slideshows can easily be done on video call platforms like <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/zoom.us\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Zoom<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.skype.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Skype<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>60th Birthday Party Ideas: Invitations That Wow<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-8798\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image8-3.jpg\" alt=\"60th birthday party ideas: Woman smiling behind her cake while surrounded by her family\" width=\"850\" height=\"567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image8-3.jpg 875w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image8-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image8-3-850x567.jpg 850w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image8-3-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image8-3-1536x1025.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you have everything organized to celebrate your favorite 60-year-old, it\u2019s time to invite the guests!
