We transformed our living room into a themed restaurant for a night. Back in May, we kicked off the first dinner in our new series, The Family Style Social Club.

“Extraterrestrial” Vibes for May 4th

For our first dinner, we decided to combine some of our favorite things: a good theme, amazing food, and good coversation. Since our dinner was on May 4th, we couldn’t resist pulling inspiration from the famous “May the 4th be with you” saying. To make it a little more original, we went all-in on an “extraterrestrial” theme—think cosmic, futuristic, and moody.

The result? A dinner party where our living room was transformed into a galaxy, and our guests were transported to outer space. The theme set the stage for everything—decor, menu, and even the vibe of the conversation. It was such a good time!

The Power of a Theme: Creating a Cohesive Experience

The best part of having a theme is that it keeps everything flowing in the right direction. When you know the vibe you’re going for, everything starts to fall into place—menu items make sense, decor feels intentional, and your conversations naturally align with the mood.

For The Family Style Social Club, the theme sets the tone for each gathering, turning a simple dinner into an immersive experience. It’s not just about the food—it’s about creating an atmosphere where people feel like they’re part of something unique and fun.
