Theme Birthday Party: Moroccan Arabian Night

Remember the Enchanted Arabian Night we organized for a baby's 1st birthday celebration? This time we are featuring a similar one for a teen aged 10!

 

Let's rub the genie lamp, grab the magic carpet and take a ride into this mysterious and magical Moroccan Theme Party!

The overall color theme of this Arabian Night is created with rich and vibrant hues of purples, golds, turqoises, teals and reds. The look of a palace is created by draping fabric in these colors from the ceiling

and hanging them in doorways. Colourful sheer see-through fabric works best for an Arabian Night party. Persian rugs are scattered throughout the party area to replicate magic carpets. The theme table is covered using damask fabric in rich gold and deep purple tablecloths.

   

Genie bottles and lamps are placed throughout the party area to help add to the atmosphere. Oil lamps, incense, and hookahs bring in the authentic look. Touches of gold are used wherever on the tabletop, things such as genie lamp with the addition of golden jeweled goblet. Empty bottles or teapots decorated in gold paint can also double as 'magic lamps'. Gold crowns represents power & legitimacy of the royal empire.

A 2-tier novelty Arabian themed cake specially designed for the birthday princess with a genie lamp fondant figurine is a perfect centrepiece decor for the theme table. Opt for a different unique touch with mini cakes instead of the normal cupcakes. The mini cakes are shaped in forms of arabian cushions embellished with tassels and studs, topped with personalized toppers. Simply stunning!

 

The mood is then set with insence, oil lamps, and candles placed on every guests's tables and other areas of the party. Twinkle lights are hung for a romantic glow. Sitting areas are created using throw rugs, cushions and bean bag chairs around the party floor.

  

    

With tents, rugs, and beanbags, it creates a terrific luxury Arabian atmosphere. A much easier trick that does a lot to enhance the mood is to play a collection of the Middle Eastern music.

An Arabian Night theme party is all about the mysterious, exotic and sensual fun. Hire a henna artist or have a booth of floral tattoo. Hire belly dancers  to perform, or better yet, get your guests involved by participating in belly dancing lessons. Designate a 'magic carpet' dance area and decorate it with an assortment of persian rugs.

 

It's a smart strategy to have a few organized games planned at a party. Just be sure to consider the ages of the children when you select the suitability of the games. Then go ahead and have a howling good time! Arabian themed games include the Musical Magic Lamp, Pass the Scarab and a Scavenger Hunt, but the all time favourite is of course the Mummy Wrap! It has always been a hit!

 

Theme Birthday Party: Strawberry Shortcake

Let's take a walk through Strawberry Land.

 

Plan a Strawberry Shortcake birthday party for your favorite little girl and you'll be entering a world of sweet smells and amazing flavors. Take a trip to Strawberry Land and see how Strawberry Shortcake can help you get the birthday party started.

 

 

Strawberry Shortcake had her start in the late ’70s and made several comebacks. Girls adore her sweet style, her bright pink ensemble, and her infamous giggle. She’s sweet and wholesome and a great choice for a birthday party theme for little girls.

Decorating your party area can be as fun as the actual Strawberry Shortcake birthday party itself. Strawberry Shortcake birthday decorations are extremely cute! The decorations are perfect for little fans that are up for a berry berry pretty party!

 

 

Colors of red, pink, and green fits in perfectly for this party. A welcome board on a tripod is placed in front of the party venue letting everyone know there's a party held at the Strawberry Land. Balloons are always instant greeters and never fail to cheer up a party. The area is transformed  into a personal garden with balloon sculptures of cute bright colourful flowers & lolly plants. Fresh flowers are beautifully arranged in pink pail buckets mixed with colourful lollypops and placed around the party area to give the fresh sweet smell and amazing flavours to the surrounding. Excellent decor!

   

The table is covered with red checked table cloth and topped with a lighter colour of pink with motives of tiny strawberries. Both sides of the fabric are then tied with ribbons at the front for a cuter effect. Personalized party favors are nicely arranged on the table which instantly create a themed table. Each side of the table is arranged with favors of different colours, red and green respectively. Red really stands out and make the party table berry pretty!

  

  

Instead of having shaped cupcake toppers, this time we had Strawberry Shortcake herself to be the topper. Mini standees of Strawberry Shortcake really made the attractions and was a hit at the party. She was standing tall on a bed of grass garnished with tiny daisies. How cute is that?!

   

 

A candy buffet is then created by adding in candies like gumballs, jelly and chocolate bars. All placed in tall glass jars, glass bowls, ceramic trays & colourful pink and green baskets tagged with matching ribbons and personalized themed tags. The candy buffet is then accentuated with a personalized pennant banner of the birthday girl hung to the wall. Perfect is just the word to describe!

 

 

Young children love doing things on their own. Maybe even more so if their efforts involve handling sweets. Cupcake Decorating is a fun boys' and girls' party activity that combines the two. It is an easy and inexpensive way to get the kids excited, and keep them seated when it's time to have dessert. Before eating, they will love being little cake designers as they create their very own cupcake designs. Tubes of colored icing are set at the table with bowls of several different toppings which include M&Ms, jelly beans, colored sugar, multi-colored sprinkles, fondant figurines, edible coloured beads and shiny pearls.

 

 

Another idea is to have a Kid's Corner. The kids are kept occupied with printable activities such as the colouring pages, activity or worksheets and also paper crafts.  All according to the theme. Writing and colouring utensils are arranged nicely, convenient for the kids to take a grab.

 

  

Favor baskets are too cute to resist! Coloured baskets are filled with love and themed favors for family and friends to take home as remembrance of a great time at the party. These baskets also offer great use during the piñata break out. Little kids can just fill up their baskets with the treats and favors gathered from the spilled piñata. Games are conducted to make sure the lil ones had great fun at the party while the adults catch up on each other. Presents are prepared for the top 3 winners of each game. What is a party without fun and laughter!

The most important thing to remember when planning a party is that preparation is the key! START PLANNING EARLY at least a month in advance so that at party time you can relax and enjoy being the birthday parent. Let Razzle Dazzle do all the dirty jobs!

The Rubber Ducky theme is absolutely adorable and great for boys or girls. Even if you don't know what the mom is having yet, a Rubber Ducky theme goes great either way.

 

  

 

Decorations always make the party! In the bubbly Rubber Ducky baby shower, our favorite little bath time buddy takes center stage in an adorable yet modern setting brought to life with bright splashes of aqua and sunny yellow and lots of our little rubber friends!

 

Mod fishbowl bubblebath makes a great centrepiece. Swim a rubber ducky amidst the bubbles in the glass fish bowl and you're all set to party! Gem stones are sure a great effect to complete the decor.

A floral touch is added with stunning yellow gerberas and some greens arranged in a tall vase which gives the shower a bit of elegance.

 

 

A beautiful cake is to die for. We make adorable cakes according to your preferred design. It is so cute of a cake to have a couple of happy ducks swimming in a bath tub full of bubbles. Details of water dripping from the tap to the tiled floor makes it darlingly attractive!

Each cupcake is decorated with a pool of aqua bubbles, topped with yummy rubber ducky fondant figurine. Simply irresistable!

It's a special day to celebrate with your bestest friends and closest family around you. So make your mark on the favors. Personalized favors are a creative way to make the theme table more individual and special to the day. A personalized favor is always a one-of-a-kind momento. Razzle Dazzle makes all theme possible for you! Your dream theme is our command.

 

If you’re hosting a party where the guests will be seated at tables, you can use rubber ducky place cards. As an alternative, each guest can have a toy rubber ducky with their name written with permanent marker on it. You can also tell the guests that they can take their rubber duckies home with them.
