The Tiki party revolves around a Hawaiian Luau or "South Seas" style of food and decor, although Tiki tumblers filled with fruity cocktail drinks are probably the most memorable part.
Be sure to have plenty of pineapples and pineapple infused food around, including a pineapple upside down cake for dessert! We can help you gather the gang with a cute custom and personalized Tiki party invitation.
I found a great article to help you plan your South Seas shindig.

The book, Trader Vic's Tiki Party!: Cocktails and Food to Share with Friends, contains recipes for both cocktails and food.
