For many years in the UK Hawaii became popular because of the hit TV show Hawaii 50 which run for over 12 years until 1980.
Hawaii Five-O was shot on location in Honolulu, Hawaii, and throughout the island of Oahu — with occasional filming in other locales like Los Angeles, Singapore and Hong Kong as well as other Hawaiian islands.
Hawaii Five-O centers on a fictional state police force of the same name — in honor of Hawaii's status as the 50th State — led by former Navy officer Steve McGarrett (Jack Lord), who was appointed by the Governor Paul Jameson (Richard Denning). Hawaii is the only state without an actual statewide police agency.
Two of the most commonly planned island theme parties in 2008 include those that represent either the Caribbean or Hawaii-or a combination of both areas. Events and activities that may be included in a Hawaiian or Caribbean themed party could include belly dancing (and regular types of dancing), “tanning” on the beach, and lei making.
A lei is basically a flower necklace that is usually made from loose orchids or similar-shaped flowers. These flowers can be fake or real. Sometimes leis are made for the waste wrist or bracelet as well. These crafts can be accented with a variety of other items as well, such as dried bamboo pieces, miniature pineapple and/or coconut ornaments. Grass skirts may also be a craft that is made at an island party.
The backdrop of the indoor location of a Caribbean Tropical Island party would represent the beach scenery of islands such as the Bahamas, Jamaica, Cuba, or otherwise. On the contrary, a Hawaiian party may include decoration themes of one or more of Hawaii’s favorite island volcanic beach spots or beaches. Usually the purpose of a themed party is to help open the minds of groups of employees. More importantly, these parties provide a way for new groups of employees to get better acquainted.
If like most of us you do not have such scenery then by adding some party decorations and fancy dress you can always use your imagination!
If you are planning a party this year then Hawaiian might be a good bet subject to the weather as always!
