Decades & Retro Party Letter Banners
Throwing it back to the 70s, 80s, or 90s? A custom letter banner is one of the easiest ways to set the vibe for a decades-themed party. Whether your guests are arriving in bell-bottoms, neon leg warmers, or flannel shirts, a laser cut banner spelling out the perfect retro phrase ties the whole room together. Our banners are crafted from glitter or matte cardstock and come pre-strung on twine, ready to hang in minutes.
With a variety of font styles available, you can pick lettering that actually feels like the era you are celebrating. Pair groovy script with warm tones for a 70s disco party, bold blocky letters with bright colors for an 80s bash, or a clean sans-serif with bright primaries for a 90s throwback. Every banner is made to order, so you can customize it down to the last letter.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which font style works best for a specific decade theme?
Font choice makes a big difference for decade parties. A flowing, curvy script feels very 70s, while bold and blocky letters lean more 80s. For a 90s theme, clean and simple fonts tend to capture that era's aesthetic. Browse our font options when building your banner and pick the one that best matches the decade you are celebrating.
What colors should I choose for a retro party banner?
It depends on the era. Earthy tones like gold, orange, and green are perfect for the 70s. Fuchsia, dark blue, and glitter pink scream 80s. For the 90s, think turquoise, purple, and bright primary colors. Choose colors from our palette that match the decade and your party decor for the most cohesive look.
Can I order a banner for a milestone birthday with a decades theme?
Of course. Decades-themed milestone birthdays are one of our most popular requests. Combine a name or age with a retro phrase, or order two banners to layer together for a bigger display. Sayings like "Dirty Thirty" in 90s colors or "50 & Fabulous" in disco-era gold are always a hit.
