An Arabian nights or an Arabian party theme is supposed to create a sense of mystique and intrigue surrounding thieves, princes, princess, kings and queens.

You need to try and create an aura of the Moroccan desert at night. So definitely throw your party in the late evening and also at the beach would be a great idea. If not, then your back garden should suffice.

I highly suggest you try and rent out a Bedouin tent. They come in all shapes and sizes and will help make your party one to remember. This of course will be dependant on your budget, however for this party theme to work properly and be memorable you really should be thinking about hiring a tent.

For your costume, you could go for an Aladdin or princess Jasmine look. Such a costume is easy to make or rent. Think turbans, pointy slippers, slinky harem pants and gold bracelets.

Get plenty of Arabian style rugs and cushions and spread them around the floor. Your guests should ideally be sitting on the floor, there should be no chairs so make the place comfortable. Any tables should be as low down as possible. Get some candles and patio lanterns to light your tent or venue.

Some added extras which are dependant on your budget would be that you could hire a belly dancer, fire eater, snake charmer, hena artist or fortune teller. Also try and get a goat; tie it up to a post outside your tent.

Look into making some traditional middle eastern dishes for the food. Ideally, your party should be sitting on the floor on the cushions and rugs you have provided. Also, the food should be kept on platters on the floor, just let everybody dive in.

In Arabia, it is traditional before eating to bathe your fingers in scented water. For this, simply put a few drops of essential oil in a bowl of water.
