Looking for Princess Birthday Party ideas? We've got princess birthday party food, invitations, decor, and party favor ideas!
Several months ago, the then-4-year-old daughter declared she'd like a Princess Party. We were only inviting girls, and the colors were to be bright pink, orange, and blue.
Simple peasy, right?
Then right before We was about to send out her invitations, she decided she wanted to invite the boys in her class (or, rather, she already verbally invited them at school), so we changed it to a Prince and Princess Party.
Here's a quick snapshot of some of the party elements
We designed the invitations (and also designed coordinating orange, pink & blue Prince invites for the boys) and matching thank you cards…
Then We made favor tags and thank you stickers to coordinate. The girls' favor bags had Disney princess cards, a pencil, and Disney Princess rings…
the boys' favor bags had a Prince Cape" (truly, a superhero cape, but We made a coordinating wrap that said "Prince Cape" — hey, it works!), a pencil, and a bouncy ball…
each child also got to choose a crown to take home and a magic wand…
We also made coordinating cupcake flags (alternative to the typical round cupcake toppers)…
and baked the fave sugar cookies with royal icing, using cookie cutters in crown, heart, and flower shapes…
plus chocolate chiffon cupcakes…
the surprise hit of the party were these last minute, super fast & simple marshmallow pops (hellooo, sugar rush!)…
It was a fun, LOUD party with about 15 kids (ages 1 – 7) and 20 adults. We played simply one game, because truly, kids simply mostly run around when they get together in large groups. It's pretty fascinating.
The daughter had the best time, and We think she felt quite special, which is what birthday girls (and boys) should always feel like. As much as We am not a Princess-loving kind of girl myself, the daughter is truly a princess in the eyes. A smart, confident, adventurous, strong, beautiful, sweet, and loving princess who is growing up so, so fast.
