We had a luau last summer and it was a blast! The kids roasted hot dogs and marshmallows over a fire put, there was a pinata, limbo, etc. I had leis for everyone I found on clearance the winter before. I made a cake that looked like a sand castle. Kids were asked to dress accordingly, and so many kids (and parents) did. The party went on into the night and the police were called (yep, for a 6-year-old party).
Oh! Food - cut up fruit and veg, cheese and crackers. (plus hot dogs and s'mores) SIMPLE.
It was so wild it al went by pretty quickly adn then it was over. PHEW. But FUN.
