Whether you live in the city or the suburbs, there's always time to experience a little country western fun. That means it's time to break out your cowboy hats, plaid shirts, and cowboy boots and say yee-haw to the idea of a country western theme party! If you're looking to plan a get together with family and friends, bring a little bit of the Old West into your night with this kind of theme party. The following is a list of tips you can use to help you get started:

• Create invitations that mimic a "wanted" poster. If you have the time and appropriate materials, consider including an image of your guest on their invitation for a real wanted poster effect.
• Suggest that guests come dressed in their best country outfit. For an extra activity, consider a costume contest and choose the guest that comes in their best cowboy or cowgirl outfit. Don't forget to include best country couple in your contest!
• Make a playlist of all your favorite country tunes. Make sure to include country songs that you can dance to - Hoedown Throwdown or square dancing anyone?
• Decorate your venue with wanted posters, bandanas, hay, cacti, and any rustic looking scenery for a true country western feel.
• Serve typical cowboy/country food such as sloppy Joes and chicken drumsticks. Don't forget BBQ baked beans, corn on the cob, and tortilla chips for side snacks!
