A Hollywood themed birthday party is a snazzy one full of glitter and glamour that your guests will be talking about for a long time. Invitations are especially fun to create and send out, as they can be reminiscent of what movie stars get when they are invited to award shows or movie premieres. These can get your guests really excited about the amazing party you’re putting together for them in celebration of a birthday for any age.

Décor rests on a bold canvas of black, white, and red colors mixed with golds and silvers. Replicating the night sky of Hollywood with a black backdrop and tiny white stars that glitter can make your guests feel like they just walked out into a California night and are gazing up at the Hollywood sign. You should replicate this very sign all over your birthday party venue and really glitz it up in silver and gold tones with spot lighting that illuminates it.

You can even create a DIY photo booth with this same backdrop that guests absolutely love, complete with props like feather boas, top hats, and big sunglasses. Roll out a faux red carpet for your guests to walk on as they enter and set up décor hangings of movie reels, CUT! signs, and marquee lights. Cutouts of famous celebrities from the old movie star days such as Marilyn Monroe and Frank Sinatra add a touch of pizazz and also make for more photo opportunities for your guests.

Tinsel garland, gold balloons, and velvet red tablecloths add a sophisticated flair. You can even hang up big stars with each guest’s name on each one that poses as a replica of a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame (and these can be favors that the guests take home with them as well). Of course, you can’t forget the floral arrangements. Red roses are absolutely perfect for this event and big or small bouquets placed as centerpieces or just around the room in general bring a beautiful look to your Hollywood party.

Hollywood Themed Party Food

The food table is where you can really go all out with fancy fares, and that starts with the birthday cake. The birthday cake should be as extravagant as you can make it and it should embody all the glitz that is Hollywood glam. Try a three-tiered cake with sugar fondant designs of red carpets, stars, movie reels, and spotlights, with a cake topper that replicates the Hollywood sign letters, but instead spell out the birthday boy or girl’s name.

Other types of great cakes that are full of Hollywood detail are shapes of Hollywood imagery like a cake in the form of a Walk of Fame star or a movie reel. Regardless of what you choose to do with the birthday cake, don’t forget the details, as this is what makes a great Hollywood cake. On the same table as the birthday cake should be all the other food and treats that are just as embellished.

Star-shaped sugar cookies and award-molded gigantic pieces of chocolate served on glittering black plates are a gorgeous addition, while old timey popcorn boxes full of whatever salty snack you choose give a fun flair to the table. Cake pops with bow ties and olives served in martini glasses encompasses the best of old Hollywood glam. Gold bucket full of candy and cupcakes on silver stands with the faces of Hollywood celebrities as toppers ties the theme together brilliantly.

Hollywood Themed Party Favor & Games

Party favors are ridiculously fun and classy with a Hollywood theme birthday party. Hand out personalized barware or bottle stoppers with a movie reel on top. Hollywood star coasters or star-shaped sunglasses will ensure smiles. You can always incorporate favors into party games as well, and doing this really keeps the guests engaged and interacting. Do a movie trivia and award guests with fun prizes like mock Oscar awards. You can also play a movie star charades game and hand out party favors like DVD’s of classic Hollywood, award-winning movies. No matter what favors or activities you choose for your guests, a Hollywood birthday party is sure to be one full of laughs, delectable foods, and unforgettable memories.

• Masquerade Invitations

A masquerade is a phenomenal and breathtaking event in itself, so when using it as a birthday party theme, you know you’ll be throwing a soiree that your guests will be talking about for years after. A masquerade party is without a doubt the best way to put on a sassy, sophisticated, and simply magical event.

Masquerade Party Decorations

Decorations are everything with a masquerade themed birthday party, and you’ll want to stick with a bold palate of colors, including deep purples, reds, forest greens, and black. Sequins, sparkles, and feathers are also a definite staple for décor, along with sexy, dim lighting that really set the atmosphere. Of course, masks are the central theme of a masquerade birthday party, so hanging up elaborately detailed masks all over the party venue is a great idea. Posting up light up letters that showcase “MASQUERADE” ensure the guests feel as though they’ve just walked into a VIP event.

Large round lanterns filled with light will illuminate the space and tall, decorative candles on equally tall stands paired with red roses are a fabulous centerpiece for tables. Black tablecloths with gleaming white, damask-patterned tableware and glass goblets are an exquisite detail that the guests will enjoy tremendously.

Tie big, black satin bows on the chairs and table legs and create unique arrangements on the walls from oversized feathers. Chandeliers are a gorgeous addition that you should definitely bring into your event if you can, but if you can’t get your hands on a real one, opt for the wall decals. You can find beautiful chandelier wall decals in all colors that easily stick on the wall or glass and peel off without any mess or residue. This gives the event just one more flair of sophistication. Rhinestone vases and serving platters and doorways filled with sequin curtains are the final step in tying together the ultimate posh look.

Masquerade Party Food Ideas

Food is extra special for a masquerade themed birthday party, as you’ll want to add unique eats alongside the normal birthday fare. The birthday cake should be larger than life, and whether you go for a feather topper, or a masquerade mask topper, you should incorporate the birthday celebrator’s name on it.

Keep in coordination with the colors of the party when designing the cake and more than one tier for the cake is a popular idea for this theme. Each tier can be different shades with different images of a masquerade, like feathers, peacocks, glittering dots or bold stripes, masks, and classic patterns of damask or the fleur de lis. Cupcakes on high towers and gigantic cookies in the shapes of stilettos and corsets add a spark of the sensual, while red macaroons and apothecary jars full of pink cotton candy give a pop of elegance. Add a chocolate fountain with fresh fruit and voila! You have a dessert table that is beyond delectable. Make your guests feel lavish with savory hors d’oeuvres such as oysters on the half shell, boiled shrimp, vegetable pinwheels, and specially spiced popcorn.

Masquerade Party Favors

Party favors for a masquerade birthday party should be just as exquisite as the food and décor, so give your guests something they can remember. Masquerade mask bottle stoppers, wine glass charms, miniature personalized bottles of champagne, decorated tea light candle holders, embellished decorative candles, and rhinestone martini glasses are all great options for masquerade party favors. Individually wrapped specialty cookies, cake pops, and candies presented in fancy boxes or velvet bags are also a fantastic way to say thank you to your guests.

Masquerade Party Games

Party games for a masquerade birthday event are extremely interactive and can even pose as party favors as well. Have guests make their own masquerade masks to wear throughout the party and to take home with them. Use icebreaker games to keep the guests mingling, such as Guess Who’s Behind the Masquerade Mask, Masquerade Mad Libs, a scavenger hunt, or even a mystery murder game. Another must have for your masquerade birthday party is a photo booth! Guests will want to have plenty of photo opportunities to document the lovely and vibrant party, so ensure that there is a space set aside for your guests to pose for plenty of pictures.

Disco Party Decorations

Decorations for a disco themed birthday party are meant to be full of lights, sounds, and silver. A disco ball is a must have as a decoration, so however you choose to incorporate it, you can’t go wrong. Glow in the dark dot stickers on the ceiling, lava lamps, black lights, and even a fog machine really set the stage for a great disco night, and the more light you have, the better. You won’t want to use normal, everyday lights, so it can get a little dim. Use the above mentioned lighting for not only an ambiance, but so the guests can see in front of them as well!

Tissue puff balls in white and streamers in orange and black, with balloons of all colors make your venue pop. Tablecloths in the design of disco floors—multicolored, light up squares—add an extra bit of vibrancy. Backdrops of bellbottom dancers on the walls and beaded doorways make your guests feel like they’ve just walked into Studio 54. Having your guests dress in costume is also a fabulous idea and don’t forget—have lots of great disco music prepared to play all evening.

A birthday cake made in the image of a disco ball is great centerpiece for the main food table, along with neon green and purple frosted cupcakes towered on either side of it. Cake pops with 1970’s ‘fros, or pops as disco balls are a fun tie into the theme, and silver bowls of psychedelic-colored candies are an extra special treat. Savory fares like warm pretzel sticks arranged in a disco flower shape on a colorful platter or rainbow popcorn boxes full of cracker jacks give the food table more yummy flavor.

Disco Party Games & Activities

Disco party games can be the highlight of your event and dancing should definitely be part of them. Twister, disco dance lessons, and musical games like “Name that Tune” are great ways to keep your guests entertained and interacting with not only each other, but also the theme itself. You could even set up a disco ball piñata for an activity full of giggles. Another memory-making set-up is a DIY photo booth. All you have to do is place a disco-themed backdrop on a wall and provide your guests with silly disco props, and voila! Your friends will have tons of great pictures of your event that they’ll keep forever.

And of course, one of the best ways to wind down the night is by handing out fun party favors. Fill silver foil bags with disco ball key chains or hand out disco music CD’s. Rainbow sunglasses and just about anything glow in the dark is a great for a memorable takeaway.

A birthday party is only as memorable as its theme, and one of the best is an event done in casino style. This is a wildly popular and extremely fun theme, especially for the older crowd, and it’s one of the most interactive motifs you can choose. Between snazzy decorations, delectable food, and adventurous party games, putting together a casino themed birthday party can be one that your friends and loved ones talk about for a long time after.

The color palate for a casino themed birthday party involves bold colors of reds, blacks, and whites, and can also incorporate accent hues of glittery gold and silver. The decorations themselves are bright, elaborate, and the options for what you can do are creatively limitless! Basic, staple décor should be red and black balloons, streamers with designs of spades and clubs, and playing card garland that’s easy to make yourself. Big signs reading “Casino” can be placed at entryways, event tables, or just all around your party venue in general.

 

Paper garland letters, golden balloon letters, or even DIY lighted letters are a great way to make these signs pop and to really illuminate the casino theme. Hang oversized, fuzzy dice from the ceiling, or utilize dice replica vases to house beautiful red flowers. Use casino themed backdrops with images of Las Vegas and gambling games to transform your space into what feels like a real casino. Utilize aesthetic accessories like tall candlesticks with a bouquet of feathers on top or framed printouts of mobsters and 1950’s celebrities like Elvis, Marilyn Monroe, and Frank Sinatra. Fill doorways with vertical, shiny circle garland that guests have to walk through for an ultimate snazzy feel, and don’t shy away from oversized, blingy, and bright décor.

The decorations are only the beginning of setting the tone for a casino themed birthday party, however. The most important aspect is the food. The birthday cake should be extravagant and mouth dropping, so going for multiple tiers can truly make it larger than life. A three-tiered cake with each layer being a square replica of a die, complete with an elaborate red and black feathered boa topper and sparklers. An octagon-shaped single layered cake that replicates a poker table with all the details formed in sugar fondant is also an amazing piece of art. Candies served in martini glasses and sugar cookies with frosting that mimics playing cards, dice, and poker chips compliment the birthday cake perfectly. Miniature roulette tables that hold chips, pretzels, nuts, and other party snacks adds an extra flair of fun. Miniature sparkling champagne bottles and liquor filled tiny chocolates are also a quaint treat to give guests.

What’s really great about a casino themed birthday party is that party games and favors can really go hand in hand. A casino is all about playing games and winning prizes, so why not set up gaming tables for your guests to play and win fantastic favors? Poker, roulette, and craps are just a few casino games that are easy to set up and easy to teach guests that don’t know how to play. Your party can last for hours and hours with your guests having a blast with these games, mingling, and winning party favors. Some good prizes are dice bottle stoppers, Vegas coasters, or playing card visor hats that mimic the ones worn by actual casino game dealers. And of course, you can’t forget the presentation of these prizes! Dice boxes, satin black bags, and a personalized flute filled with candy are all great ways to send your guests home feeling like ultimate winners.

One of the most popular and timeless computer games for kids is Minecraft, and what better way to celebrate any milestone birthday than with a Minecraft themed party? This motif is fun, interactive, and can actually be pretty easy to put together. With a simple palate of colors, wild décor, and creative food fares, you can throw a Minecraft birthday party that your children will remember forever. After you send out your brilliantly decorated Minecraft birthday party invitations full of gaming enthusiasm, it’s time to get started!

Minecraft Birthday Party Decorations

Transforming your reserved birthday party space into a world of Minecraft is an exciting adventure, and can be done by putting even the most basic party decorations together. Start with your color scheme, and make it bright, with neon green being your center Minecraft hue. Also, keep in mind that you’ll need to incorporate Minecraft imagery, which is a pixelated green and black face, along with pretty much anything else you can turn into a “pixilated” form. Lots of DIY projects can come from these ideas, such as creating a wall backdrop, tablecloths, or balloons that have free hand sharpie pixelated Minecraft images and the like. Streamers that can be made into spider legs after the bugs in the game or large banners in pixelated letters paying homage to the birthday boy/girl are also great DIY crafts you can incorporate into the party. Green, square shaped lanterns that you can hang from the ceiling and even green lightbulbs can really make your party guests feel as if they have fallen into the game itself. You can even get the kids involved in making more decorations at the actual party by handing out Minecraft coloring pages and hanging them up for show after the kids are finished.

For food, this is where you can delight your birthday boy/girl with the ultimate Minecraft themed treats. It’s a good idea to set up a main table that houses all the most popular food for the event, and this includes the birthday cake. Whether you opt for a single or multi-tiered cake, make sure you don’t spare the details here. If you’re going to go all out and elaborate on anything, the birthday cake should be it. With limitless options for frosting, shapes, and sugar fondant creations, you can make this cake into anything from a big Minecraft-inspired block, a canvas for a cast full of game characters, or a replica of what’s on the game screen. Savory foods that you can incorporate Minecraft images into are pizza (get creative with the pepperonis!), punch, popcorn, and even drink bottles! Other treats to include are themed jars filled with green and orange candy, sugar cookies and cupcakes frosted with Minecraft images, and green bowls full of finger foods like carrots, chips, and pretzels. Creating food labels in the Minecraft letters and colors also adds an extra touch to the entire theme.

Minecraft Birthday Party Bags

Putting together party favors for your little guests is where things really get fun. You can create interactive favors that the kids actually get to make themselves to take home, such as character masks, decorated jumbo plastic cups, or blocked artwork. Presenting the favors in green, Minecraft-faced bags and square boxes makes opening the packages full of favors even more enjoyable for the kids. Candy and individually wrapped chocolates, cookies, and cake pops are a delicious way to fill up the favor bags, or you could go for something more permanent, such as miniature Minecraft character figurines and toys. Minecraft themed hats and socks are also a memorable favor that the guests will love to hold onto.

Between magical blocks, swords, giant spider villains, and mystic rocks and explosions, Minecraft is a game that offers not only a mind building activities for kids, but also a fantastic birthday party theme.
