Create Your Invitations

Your party invitation is your little girl’s royal proclamation asking her friends to attend her special event, so it’s an important document that needs to have a lot of thought put into it. That being said, it’s also meant to be an exciting welcome into your child’s fairytale world, so you should also make it colorful and fun for children to look at and read. You have a lot of choices when it comes to designing and putting together your invitations, like purchasing a package of fill-in-the-blank cards from a party store, using a computer program to design them, finding customized ones from an Etsy shop, or getting out your craft supplies and creating them on your own! It’s a great idea to use your princess visitor as inspiration for your invitation theme, or using her signature colors as a color scheme. This way, your party will feel cohesive from start to finish!

Decorate, Decorate, Decorate!

Decorating for a princess party might seem a little daunting, but it’s actually quite simple and can be accomplished on a small budget! Using your princess guest as inspiration for your decor will help you figure out the best colors and design elements to use to turn your party space into an enchanting world of wonder. Party supply stores like Party City have all of the basics you need, like balloons, streamers, and plastic tablecloths, and you can scour online shops for special pieces or use social media for decor ideas. DIY decorations are a great way to make a beautiful space without You don’t have to break the bank to give your little girl the fairytale party of her dreams!

Bake or Buy Your Cake

Kids always look forward to cake at the end of a day full of birthday fun! A beautifully decorated cake is a wonderful surprise, and it looks great in photographs to give you wonderful memories of your child’s special day. If you’re a skilled baker, go to town making the cake of your child’s dreams! If not, take your ideas to the bakery and have them create the cake for you. Have the cake decorated in your child’s favorite colors, your princess guest’s signature colors, or designed to match some element of your princess visitor’s storyline. Castle-shaped cakes are great for princess parties, or a sheet cake decked out with colored frosting and designs can be just as magical.

Plan Party Favors

It’s nice to give your little girl’s friends a small token of gratitude as they leave your princess party. Traditionally, these favors are toys or candy, but there are endless possibilities if you want to give favors that are more exciting or unexpected. For a princess party, crowns, tiaras, magic wands, fairytale figurines, or costume jewelry are all wonderful themed gifts that your child’s royal court of knights and ladies will love to take home with them! An extra fun treat would be to have the kids decorate their crowns or wands during the party as a final group activity. Have your child hand them out to each friend as they leave.

Remind Your Guests it’s a Princess Party

Aside from the fact that the party is in your little girl’s honor, the most important thing for your guests to know is that you are having a princess party guest. Your invited guests will be waiting in anticipation to meet one of their favorite fairytale characters and they’ll be so excited to celebrate with your child! Including a hint on your invitations that a special princess guest will be around is a good indicator for the other parents that they should send their child in costume to enhance the princess party experience. Just think of the adorable snapshots you’ll capture with every child dressed in their fairytale-inspired dress up clothes!
