You don't have to have it all authentic and exact. Find out the basics and go from there. It is a theme for a dinner party, not a cultural lesson for school. Some ingredients for foreign recipes may be hard or impossible to find. Research
what appropriate substitutions are. Foreign recipes may use different measurements from what you are used to, including temperature, so be sure to research how to properly make the conversion.
Invitations
The invitation will let your guest know the formality of your event as well as your theme. Once you have chosen the country, you can decorate your invitations with its flag. If it has a distinct shape, a silhouette of its landmass will also work well.
Other invitations ideas include attaching an invitation to a flag or item representing the county. A food or beverage item from that country may be obtained and sent with the invitation. Anything that will represent the country of your choice may be used in some way with your invitations.
Decorating Your Dinner Party
Decorating with small flags of the country you have chosen, and in the colors of their flag are great ways to set the tone for your party. You can have music from the country softly playing in the background. You can even dress in the costume of the country, or have dolls on display in the appropriate costumes. Vases or baskets with flowers found in that country can make lovely centerpieces. Small flags or trinkets representing the country chosen can accompany place cards.
Candles, tablecloths, napkins, chair covers, dishes, serving ware all may be in the colors of the country's flag. For a less formal party, disposable plates, cups, napkins, and eating utensils all may be found in most colors. For variety, use all the colors of the flag. You can get all the plates in one color, all the cups in another, etc; or you can get each in all the colors of the flag.
