Soar with us as we take off through the night sky to a place where childhood wishes and dreams come true at our Tinkerbell Birthday Party! This whimsical and ethereal birthday party is sure to please your Tinkerbell and Peter Pan fans alike! With a pink, mint and gold color palette, soft and chic feminine details and everyone's favorite fairy for inspiration, this dreamy party will make you want to "never grow up!"
The Table:
Second star to the right and straight on till morning...and you'll find yourself in the ethereal world of Neverland!
To create our own extra girly version of Neverland, we layered our table in a soft pink tablecloth topped with sparkling gold sequin table runners with a soft mint table runner for an elegant touch.
The Place Settings:
Each place setting had its own dreamy elements, including layered dishware starting with pearlescent white chargers and ornate gold trimmed plates, topped with a pink dinner plate and a coordinating mint dessert plate.
This layered look is helpful for serving guests meals followed by dessert and always adds a luxe look to a tablescape for an inexpensive price tag.
Resting upon each mint plate was a petite white favor box topped with a sweet paper flower. These favor boxes are darling and the perfect way to give guests a sweet treat or party favor in a pretty manner. These feminine boxes looked so soft and chic in the center of our place settings.
Resting beside every place setting was an ornate fairytale dinner napkin which brought in more colors from our color palette. Each napkin displayed gold glittering cutlery which reminded us of pixie dust!
Each place setting also had a classic glass milk bottle full of pink pixie punch.
The basic glass bottle was enhanced by adding a Tinkerbell silhouette along with a gold striped paper straw.
Lastly, a miniature bird cage was transformed into a petite fairy home. Each individual mini cage was painted in a soft pink hue with gold highlights and housed gold glittering Tinkerbell fairy.
The Chair Backers:
To extend the decor from the table to the chairs, pixie wings were suspended from each chair. Not only did each set of fairy wings add a simple decorative detail, but our petite pixie enthusiasts loved donning the wings for some creative play.
The Centerpiece:
As the focal point of any tablescape, a centerpiece should always set the scene, and we wanted our centerpiece to truly capture Neverland's details.
We created custom Captain Hook inspired centerpieces to run along the center of the table. A glamorous and unexpectedly elegant touch was given to the centerpieces by enhancing them glittering gold, boxwood and tissue flowers.
Tinkerbell herself even peeks out from among the florals with a petite bottle of pixie dust!
These eye-catching centerpieces are uniquely beautiful and are simple to replicate at home! You can see the full tutorial to create these Captain Hook inspired Neverland Centerpieces here!
We incorporated even more Tinkerbell elements into our centerpiece by crafting some larger fairy homes using large birdcages highlighted in glittering gold for a glamorous and girly touch.
Bright green moss, boxwood and florals surrounded a large tinkerbell silhouette perched on a gold striped paper straw in the center of our cage.
Additional florals cascaded along the sides creating a dream home for any fairy, large or small. Each fairy cage rested upon a wooden slab for a touch of nature. You can create your own fairy home by following our full tutorial here!
The Dessert Buffet:
The dessert buffet was dressed in a pink rosette table cloth topped with a sequin table runner.
The Cake:
In the center of the dessert buffet was a basic white supermarket cake that we transformed by adding some basic pink fondant polka dots to play off of our backdrop.
Using a vinyl cutting machine, we created custom Peter Pan, Wendy and Tinkerbell cake toppers along with some pink tissue flowers. You could also make a more simple silhouette and cut the vinyl pieces out by yourself.
Alongside the cake sat lace planters that were brimming with a beautiful mix of greenery.
The Backdrop:
We love Neverland's natural greenery and flora so we wanted to add a glamorous spin on those aspects by creating a mint colored backdrop using mint gossamer, gold glittering dots and gorgeous pink tissue flowers.
A frame was painted in gold glitter paint and surrounded a silhouette of Tinkerbell made from gold glitter contact paper.
Small gold polka dots and pink tissue flowers surrounded the frame adding a light pattern to the mint fabric backdrop.
DIY Favors:
We wanted to offer our guests something that paired perfectly with our fairy themed cake, and our Tinkerbell Fairy Snack Mix was the perfect and simple solution! This snack mix is perfect for fairy fans!
