Blues Theme Party?

I am hosting a summer party/wedding reception and the theme is "Peace of the Blues." We have a blues guitar player performing plus a lot of background blues to play between sets, as well as a tongue-in-cheek nod to the "Blues Brothers" with their soundtrack. We also have black fedoras and Blues Brothers glasses to pass out to the guests.

I would like to do a little more but I am at a loss as to what else could be done to make it more "bluesy." Anyone have any quick or inexpensive ideas for decorations or prizes? Thanks in advance!

How about using blue for your color theme. Blue and white Christmas lights, candles, tableclothes. Also, you could use a night club type of decor, plastic stemware, or glass if you can get enough.

Sounds fun-good luck. Black would be a good color choice too. Maybe you could have the "Nun". "The Blues Brothers" is one of my all time favorite movies. Rent it for ideas.
