18 Things You Need For A 2000s Party Theme

Everything You Need For A 2000s Party

As we drift farther away from one of the most iconic decades ever, it’s no wonder we’re seeing 2000s parties and themes pop up more like never before.

The 2000s were a fun and eclectic decade, known for its distinctive fashion, music, and pop culture. Most of us were still getting used to the internet, though having fun back then seldom required the use of an internet connection or data alike.

For a nostalgic party feel, this blog post will go over 18 things you need at your next 2000s party-themed event!

2000s Themed Tattoos

Who remembers playing with wash-off tattoos with your friends?

Instead of playing games off Ipads and electronics, we were busy using the kitchen sink and a wet towel to adhere wash-off stickers to our bodies.

These stickers are also too cute!

Sip Me Baby One More Time Cups

Britney Spears was one of the most iconic figures of the 2000s.

She gained fame as a pop princess with her debut album “Baby One More Time” in 1999, but it was during the 2000s that she reached the height of her success and became a cultural phenomenon.

These cups are a no-brainer!

That’s So Fetch Balloons

Released in 2003, Mean Girls became a cult classic of the 2000s.

The movie was a cultural touchstone of the 2000s and captured the essence of high school life, friendship, and the challenges of teenage years.

If you’re having a Y2K party, Mean Girls decor is another must-have!
