growing up in the 80's, we used a lot of STREAMERS (ugh), balloons, and silver "tinsel" looking streamers. You can make signs with bubble letters in royal blue and sprinkle liberally with glitter.
As for the food - as some one mentioned previously doritos are a must at any "rad" party, punch, soda (strawberry, cactus coolers, etc), chicken drummettes, finger jello (or the layered jello), individual cheesecakes (nilla wafers in cupcake cups as the crust with cheesecake filling & topping), chocolate chip cookies, and hot dogs/hamburgers/pizzas were always cheap & easy.
Make sure you have some Wham!, Madonna, Treniere & Friends to go with the dance party mix.
aahhhh...the good ol' days...

Hi,
Anything neon is appropriate! Also try animal prints or Pac Man. Have splatter paint around. The websites below have lots of ideas!
For food you could have a bunch of candies like Gobstoppers or Reese's Pieces or M&M's. Have Doritos and Fritos. Make finger sandwiches cut into triangles. Drinks could be Faygo and Tab cola. Make a cake to look like a rubix cube. Other ideas are Jello Pudding cups, chips, Sloppy Joes, and hot dogs.

Anything with bright neon colors and 80's music would sound right for that type of get together. Maybe throw on a back to the future theme?

go with some nostalgic candy...
Fun Dip
Garbage Pail Kid cards
As for decorations...definitely fluorescent stuff and gold lamay. Maybe set up a flashdance chair area and have a contest or a Thriller scene
You could also do at-home 80s karaoke.

neon color was big during 83-86, so hot pink and neoon green... just watch early madonna videos (lucky star) or pretty in pink...or any Duran Duran videos. off-the shoulder sweatshirts... I guess this is all fashion advice...as far as decor...good luck!
