Now that you’ve done your photo booth, it’s time to entertain some more. Sure, you could go without decorating your party location, but why would you? Especially when you could add some color with these affordable ideas! One of our favorite decorations is the rainbow fringe garland seen on the top right. Not only is it cute, but it will make your room pop! The top left is pretty simple: grab some colored construction paper and create a vibrant rainbow heart garland. The bottom left shows an adorable table set-up featuring flowers, placemats, and personalized name tags. If those flowers are too much for you, take it down a notch with the simple yet elegant white flowers in colorful water.
FOOD & DRINK IDEAS

We all know a party is not complete without great food and tasty drinks. Make your guests' mouths water with the healthy (but still tasty) rainbow vegetarian pizza seen on the top left. Bottoms up! Take rainbow shots with your friends and celebrate each others' individualities. For those who don’t drink, no problem! Pick up different colored sodas and line them up accordingly. Not only does this serve as a great thirst-quencher, but also an eye-popping decoration! Top it all off with a slice of rainbow cake. Scarf that sugary goodness down with no regrets because you deserve it.
