31Jul

A theme for a party is a fabulous way to bring your celebration to life and an excellent way to make it memorable and enjoyable! We can’t wait to celebrate with you post COVID. Place your trust in Doltone House to ensure you make the most of every occasion.

We have developed comprehensive catering packages for parties to suit all celebrations and gatherings both large and small. Our spaces can be transformed using stunning décor, drapery, props and lighting matched with our award winning catering. You’ll find the perfect space to match your tailored package, with contemporary and dynamic rooms and world-class Sydney Harbour views.

We’ve hand picked some of our favourite party themes that our clients have hosted in our venues. Here are some inspiration to get your creative juices flowing.

About Parties At Doltone

Party Catering Packages

1. Let The Party Roar

Circus fever is the rage! Turn your party into a carnival with extraordinary styling featuring striped ceiling drapes and lots of balloons. Props including popcorn stands, light up letters, vibrant florals, ferris wheels, twinkling lights and (faux) circus animals.

2. Up In The Air

Celebrate with a high! We’ve hosted events that took creativity to the sky. Use large pieces of cotton to mimic fluffy clouds and net large helium balloons for hot air balloon centrepieces. Fill up the stage or room with an abundance of white balloons!

3. Forever Young Ladies

Pink isn’t just a colour, its an attitude. Decide first – peachy pink or cool rose pink? Then coordinate your flowers, balloons, cake, centrepieces and styling decor so they follow the same tone. Add neutral colours such as white, cream and rose gold to balance.

4. Boys Turn Into Gents

From superheroes to race cars to man caves, we’ve see our spaces transformed in many creative ways over the years. After you’ve set your theme, discuss with our friendly team which of our venues would best suit your idea!

5. Metallic On Neon

Get the party vibing with bright lights, neon signs and metallic finishes. Consider using creative lighting solutions to add colour and ambiance to your event rather than traditional florals, balloons and backdrops.

6. Tropical Like It’s Hot

Tropicana or Havana? Go for green featuring large assorted palm leaves, flowers such as orchids or frangipani, colourful cushions, and blue/green vases.

7. La Dolce Vita

Celebrate the vibrancy of Italy with a strong colour palette of red, white and green. To bring the beautiful Amalfi Coast into your party, introduce elements of yellow, whether it be through plentiful lemons or blossoming floral centrepieces. Further the look with gingham tablecloth. Extra Tip: large tomatoes tins make great platter stands!
