Gallop on over to our My Little Pony™ Birthday Party! It's filled with plenty of character-themed party ideas, colorful rainbow elements and of course, an array of candies, sweet treats and confections! With our creative party designs and easy-to-follow DIYs and recipes, you can easily recreate this cheerful party at home for your own equestrian enthusiast!
My Little Pony is the summation of every little girl's dreams! Adorable ponies paired with sparkles, rainbow colors and eternal optimism – what's not to love!? With these key characteristics in mind, we set out to create a bright and happy My Little Pony™ Party sure to please even the pickiest of Pony fans!
The Table We kept our table bright with a Hot Pink Plastic Tablecloth topped with a My Little Pony™ Magic Paper Tablecloth that we left folded to serve as a custom table runner. We also incorporated plenty of color into our tablescape by pairing up colorful serving ware, pastel rainbow candies and an abundance of character-themed details.
The Centerpiece
We wanted to get super creative with our centerpieces and we immediately knew we wanted to incorporate rainbows and plenty of ponies. We created a custom candy-filled centerpiece and flanked it with candy filled jars. We added ribbon and confetti detailing to dress up our centerpiece components. We also incorporated My Little Pony™ Friendship Is Magic Birthday Candles (they aren't just for cakes!) into our centerpiece to tie in even more characters. You can get the step by step tutorial to recreate these pieces at home for your next party here! Our favorite aspect of our centerpieces was certainly our DIY My Little Pony Gumball Machine! We teamed up a variety of ordinary items to create these colorful and charming My Little Pony-themed gumball machines! Not only did they look adorable on our table, but the kids loved them too!

The Place Settings
Of course we wanted to be sure our My Little Pony place settings had an abundance of pony-themed party supplies! We started setting up each space with Pearlized White Chargers and stacked them with Lavender Square Paper Dinner Plates topped with My Little Pony™ Magic Paper Dinner Plates. Each dinner plate was flanked with a Hot Pink Plastic Fork and a coordinating My Little Pony™ Friendship Is Magic Beverage Napkin. My Little Pony™ Friendship is Magic Plastic Tumblers, each sporting a Purple Striped Paper Straw, were displayed along side each set of plates. We love incorporating plastic character cups because our guests can take them home and reuse them when they are done! Lastly, we wanted to be sure our Pony fans looked the part while celebrating in style. Each guest has their own My Little Pony™ Friendship Is Magic Party Hat at their place setting to wear while enjoying some cupcakes! The Backdrop and Dessert Display
Every My Little Pony party needs the perfect setting and dessert table! We kept it simple by repurposing a My Little Pony™ Magic Party Game and using this darling poster as our backdrop! The best part is that when it came to game time, the kids could easily get right to it! Everyone knows it's never really a party until someone breaks out the piñata! We did just that and allowed our My Little Pony™ Pull-String Piñatas to serve as both candy-filled fun AND a cute piece of themed decor! Our My Little Pony™ Pull-String Piñatas looks perfect flanking some themed My Little Pony™ Friendship Is Magic Paper Cups. We upgraded our basic box decor by adding some confetti we repurposed from the My Little Pony Friendship is Magic Centerpiece Set as well. We added a few details from the My Little Pony™ Friendship is Magic Centerpiece Set to the front of our dessert buffet too! The Sweets
Every dessert table calls for extra-yummy sweets! We whipped up these candy-filled Rainbow Candy Surprise Cupcake Recipe for our party and displayed them on a bed of rainbow shimmer gumballs! We transformed some extra confetti from the My Little Pony™ Friendship is Magic Centerpiece Set into the perfect cupcake toppers for our confections. You can get the recipe for our Rainbow Candy Surprise Cupcake Recipe here to recreate these tasty treats for your next party!
