What Are We Celebrating?
Before the fun begins, it’s important to understand where this exciting holiday comes from and how you can honor it in style. Mardi Gras is a holiday and popular cultural phenomenon that dates back thousands of years and celebrates excess before the season of Lent. In French, Mardi means Tuesday and Gras mean fat, so the day before Ash Wednesday has become known as “Fat Tuesday” or as we all know it “Mardi Gras”. People have taken on this infamous day to party in the streets, throw beads, have lavish dinners and masked balls.
What To Serve At Your Party:
What is a themed party without a fun cocktail and dessert? Luckily Mardi Gras has some of the best drinks and sweets that will most definitely get your festive party started. Our favorite and most popular, Mardi Gras must-haves include The Hurricane and the King Cake. Don't forget to put a baby figurine in the cake for someone to find; the lucky person who finds it will be blessed with luck and prosperity (and will also have to bring the King Cake next year).
How To Make The Theme Feel Authentic:
Mardi Gras is known for parades, beads, masks, and parties. There are also three colors connected with Mardi Gras which makes this theme even more special:
- Purple represents Justice
- Gold represents Power
- Green represents Faith
