A Pirate Theme can be great with either an outdoor or indoor venue area, using natural elements like sticks and wood, you can have a rustic style that will charm. For colors a good mix would be blue and black or red and black, allowing an accent that is bold and fun. Using barrels you can make seats for your little pirates to sit at, if you have tall tables the whole barrel or just half for smaller tables. Line your guest tables with striped cloths for a pirate effect. This would be a great theme for hanging up old maps, laying out atlas’ that you have available and spreading out lots of flags. If you have some vintage storage chests, you can fill them up with costume jewelry and fake golden coins to create treasures fit for a pirate.

Pirate Party Food

There are a lot of different pirate treats that you can make for your guests to enjoy.  Rice krispy treats, cake pops and mini-cupcakes all offer a perfect size for placing little sticks in with ship flags on them to blend your food nicely with the theme.  Grilled chicken legs make a messy and fun pirate food that is also a good filler. Hot dogs, pizza and even meatloaf can also make tasty foods.  You can make a special jewel punch as a fun beverage at the party too. The night before your event just freeze up some different colors of ice cubes to place in your punch bowl and voila, a drinkable treasure trove!

Pirate Party Games

No Pirate Party would be complete without a plank walk- you can set-up a two by four wooden board for children to walk across and have them leap into a pile of blue pillows (water).  You can even make it more challenging by blindfolding the victims so it is tougher to stay on the board.  Another fun pirate adventure is the treasure hunt! Make a map for the children to decipher and see which pirate can get to the X (have a small chest will little pirate gifts waiting) first!

A Cupcake Birthday Party is a great one to use a pinata at, filled with lots of yummy treats or with small toys for the children to gather up. You can have a cupcake beanbag toss as well, using a cardboard cupcake with a hole in the middle to throw the bags through. For those who enjoy a good cooking craft, you can set-up a cupcake station for the guests to concoct their own sweet creation at.

Ideal party favors include personally wrapped single cupcakes for the guests to enjoy when they get home. With a printed label and cute ribbon, the favors are sure to stand out.  Another option would be to send everyone home with their own cupcake mixes in mason jars so they can make them at home.  For yet an additional sweet favor, you can make a bouquet of lollipops, place them in a small jar, wrap them with saran wrap and top with a red pom. A Cupcake Party is definitely a sweet theme for any child to enjoy.

The Batman logo is such a breeze to make, you can easily DIY a lot of the little effects at your child’s party, personalizing it to them in a unique way.  If you have a large venue area and some pop-up tents, you can create a miniature Gotham City for the kids to play in, poster board can be crafted around the tents with the city drawn on them. You could also put the poster board building artwork on the walls, making the room look like it is inside Gotham City.  Use the dark colors for your table cloths to create a darker imagery.  Bundles of balloons can fill the room up too, giving it a cozy feeling.

For fun foods that blend well with a Batman theme, try raisins on a peanut butter and celery log, you can call them Bats on a Log!  If you have a Batman logo jello mold you can make fun jello treats. Of course finger foods are best for your superhero to keep his Batman ensemble from getting dirty! Pigs in a Blanket, mini-deli sandwiches and a fruit and veggie tray all work well and you can come up with epic names for each that showcase your Batman theme splendidly.  Turn a two-tiered round cake into a Batman silhouette for a memorable dessert option.  You could also create a sheet cake with Gotham City and include some of Batman’s other pals like Robin.

For some action-packed Batman excitement, have your guests all wear fun capes and set up a picture of your child’s favorite villain. Then, give out silly string and let everyone save the day! Although a bit messy, it is sure to be a win. Another great activity is to have a Batman pinata and have everyone take turns swinging for the delicious treats inside.

A favorite parting gift for Batman parties is either a mini flashlight, or a standard size with a Batman sticker on the end.  When they turn it on, suddenly it is a beacon calling for their favorite superhero!  Another fun memento would be to fill up little Batman pails with accessories or candies, letting everyone enjoy a special treat.

Bling Princess First Birthday Party

Bling Princess First Birthday Party by Events by Nat

A daughter’s first birthday is a huge deal for parents and what better way to celebrate this milestone than a fun, themed birthday party? This is just what Events by Nat did with her wonderful motif of “Bling Princess First Birthday Party”, and it was full of pretty décor and shining accessories fit for a princess!

Bling Princess First Birthday Party

Presentation and food are the most important facets of any party, and for the Bling Princess party, there was no exception. The main color for decorations was a pale pink, and it was incorporated in tons of ways. Pretty pale pink tulle was used for table skirt for the food and cake serving tables. Pale pink color was also used in the birthday cake, cupcakes, candies, and other accents such as chair bows, flowers, balloons, and cupcake wrappers.

When it came time for the yummy treats, Events by Nat really went all out! A blinged silver number “1” was the topper for the birthday cake, while apothecary jars were perfect to hold pink candies. Silver shiny crowns were plopped on top of the jars as well! Magic wand star stirrers for drinks added to the theme beautifully, while tiara-shaped sugar cookies and jewel-sticked cake pops were an amazing sight to the guests’ eyes!

A pink sign with letters in silver glitter paint proclaiming “Happy Birthday!” to the little princess honoree made the entire party theme pop. Party favors of white and pink wrapped personalized candy bars with jeweled stickers gave the birthday party guests a feeling of pampered royalty. Last minute final touches that completed the Bling Princess motif were a white picture frame with a sign thanking the guests, pink goodie bags for the guests to gather in treats, and most importantly, serving trays and platters in colors of white and silver. Events by Nat truly made Bling Princess first birthday party a memorable one!

Ariel Mermaid inspired birthday party

Ariel Mermaid inspired birthday party by Events by Nat

An Ariel Mermaid inspired birthday party theme is an extremely fun event to do, and Events by Nat totally proved that with a party she did in this theme for her daughter. The theme itself is so versatile with what you can do with decorations and food that it makes it all that much more exciting and affordable, and it works with more than just one age group of little girls.

Ariel Mermaid inspired birthday party

What was really magical about this party were the beautiful colors of vibrant hues of blues, greens, reds, pinks, and oranges which made the party pop. A white tablecloth for the main presentation table and white serving ware was used for a classy addition.  Bright blue leis was used along the front of the table, paired with an orange display fishing net over a corner of the table as an accent, and a backdrop behind the table of a scene from the “Little Mermaid” movie. There was even a name of the birthday girl on the backdrop!

Different main colors of candies were arranged in pretty  jars and filled drink glasses with yummy Hawaiian punch, topped off with a lei flower garnishment. Amongst the food, colorful starfish accents provided a beautiful feel of “under the sea”. The main food attraction is of course the birthday cake, and this was the main Ariel-theme. Sprinkle sugared candy sand along the trays that held seashell topped cupcakes and cookies further gave the aura of beachiness. And of course, there was a piece of magic to the birthday party with a miniature chest of candy coins!

This Ariel Mermaid inspired birthday party was completed with candy bar favors wrapped with personalized label that features colors and images of a sweet mermaid life! The kids dressed in mermaid costume with a face painting station as well, making the event all that more engaging and memorable!
