Host a Disney Princess-Themed Birthday Party With These Tips

Do you have a child obsessed with Disney? You’re not alone! Kids love Disney for its fun, whimsy, and entertaining characters.

Well, if your kid is always playing pretend princess, you can make it a reality for them. Talk about magic! Here are some tips to host a Disney princess-themed birthday party they will remember.

Create a Magical Kingdom With Decorations

Start by transforming your space into a magical kingdom. Use pastel-colored streamers, glittery tablecloths, and themed bunting featuring beloved princesses like Cinderella, Belle, and Ariel. Next, add elements like faux castles, twinkling fairy lights, and plush toys.

Oh, and don’t forget to set up a photo booth adorned with props such as crowns, wands, and fairy wings so that the party’s guests can remember the day they become princesses. These enchanting decorations set a cheerful tone and make your little princess and their friends feel like they’ve stepped into their favorite Disney movie.

Provide Princess Dresses for the Little Guests

When little guests start arriving, greet them with their choice of Disney princess outfits and accessories. They can become their favorite characters for the event, immersing themselves in the fantasy.

Though you can also ask that kids arrive already dressed up, providing the costumes yourself makes dress-up an activity for the party (and makes it easier on the guests’ parents!).

Make Snacks Inspired by the Movies

Food is an essential part of all celebrations big and small. With a little creativity, it can match your theme!

Here are some fun ideas:

Beauty & the Beast themed food: French Onion Soup, Rose Petal Sangria, Cheese Soufflé, and Disney's Grey Stuff from this Beauty & the Beast Dinner & a Movie Night
Snow White’s poisoned apple: red apples dipped in green caramel
Ariel’s under-the-sea cupcakes: purple cake with aqua frosting and edible pearls
Cinderella’s pumpkin treats: oranges stuffed with celery sticks
Tiana’s beignets: mini powdered sugar beignets—pretty straightforward!
Elsa’s frozen blue Jello cups: blue raspberry Jello in clear cups, topped with whipped cream and a sprinkle of blue sugar
