This Valentine's Day we are saving money on a babysitter, skipping the over crowded restaurants and serving up lots of love with a fun family-friendly "You Stole a Pizza My Heart" dinner and party. Lovin' is fresh from the oven at this fun pizza themed Valentine's Day party.
This party was the perfect way for our family to celebrate Valentine's Day! Everyone had fun building their own heart pizzas, playing games and eating heart-shaped fruit pizza cookies. You too can plan your own Valentine's Day pizza party with these supplies and decorations.
Since the focus of this party was building and making our own heart-shaped pizzas I started with a simple table setting. I used a white tablecloth and used the red gingham plastic tablecloth as a table runner. Round pizza pans served as the chargers for each place setting. I then layered red square dinner plates and silver heart shaped dessert plates. Red gingham and Valentine's Day heart napkins coordinated perfectly with our festive place settings.
At each place setting I placed a DIY personalized pizza making kit with everything the kids would need to make their special pizzas. Each kit included marinara sauce, pizza toppings, pizza dough, mozzarella cheese and a small rolling pin. The kids rolled out their pizza dough, shaped it into a heart and then customized it with all of their favorite toppings.
Even though this was a small family party I still wanted it to feel extra special so I created a simple dessert station with an old vintage desk. I used the black paper to create a backdrop and then hung the red gingham and kraft paper fans. I cut out red hearts and added them to some of the fans to give it more of a love theme. I also made a heart shaped pizza banner with the pizza sticker scenes and kraft heart banner. I filled jars with pasta and added a vintage scale and a tin filled with pizza making utensils for simple decorations.
Every party needs to end with a sweet treat, so I added some cupcakes with mustache picks and a few jars of candy so the kids could fill up a favor jar with treats to enjoy later. In addition to the cupcakes I also had heart-shaped cookies that the kids decorated and made into delicious Heart Fruit Pizza Cookies.
While we waited for our pizzas to cook, we played a fun Roll a Pizza game. Everyone had lots of fun racing to see who would build their pizza first. This was a great way to pass the time and enjoy a few laughs while we waited on our pizzas.
This family-friendly party is a great way to celebrate Valentine's Day with your loved ones and makes for a memorable event to look back on.
