Entertainment
If there's ever a time to hire a belly dancer, this is the perfect excuse for it! Arabian Nights theme parties and belly dancers go together like strippers and poles. So you best get on it! =P
It depends on where you're at though, whether you can find some real, authentic belly dancers. If you can't find any in your local listings... just improvise! I'm sure you'll think of something.
