Red is a colour that’s hard to ignore. Yet, it is not often that one comes across stunning red looks in events. Red is often evocative of a variety of emotions and concepts, including passion, love, energy, power, danger and vitality. Red is also associated with warmth and in some cultures, red is also a symbol of luck and good fortune. It is the predominant colour for Lunar New Year celebrations, Valentine’s Day and also often used around Christmas. Here are 17 creative and unique red party ideas to inspire you! From DIY decorations to delicious, colourful treats, these are just some of our favourite party looks, desserts and decor.
