College football is in full swing, so if you’re planning a fun backyard tailgate while the weather is nice, we have some fun activities for you and your guests to enjoy while you wait for the grill to fire up! Start a bungee run competition on our football field designed One-on-One Bungee Run! Winner gets the first slice of football field cake!

During halftime, break out a game of Cornhole or the Football Toss Game. If you’re looking for a few delicious dip recipes for pre-game appetizers, check out a few of these that look mouth-watering! For even more fun football party ideas, head over to our Touchdown blog post from a few years ago.

There are SO many fun green themes, we know we missed some! Keep an eye on our blog for more fun party ideas soon! In the meantime, head over to our Pinterest Board for more GREEN Party Ideas and Inspiration!

Red Party!

We love love love a good party theme! We know that certain cartoon characters and tv shows or movies are incredibly popular themes, especially for kids’ birthdays. But what if you’re planning a party (whether for a birthday, wedding shower, baby shower, wedding reception, or a business event), and really want the focus to be on the colors you’re using, rather than the characters?
Well, we have a few ideas, and as always, we’re ready to help! 🙂
Over the next few weeks, we’re going to feature color-inspired party ideas. You can incorporate these ideas into any party theme.  Say you’re planning a Firefighter, Elmo, Mickey, or Superman birthday….or a wedding reception for a bride who loves roses…or a backyard tailgate to kick off the season for your favorite high school or college team and red is one of the school colors….or a Red Carpet party to gather with friends while watching the premiere of your favorite show’s new season…or a Christmas, Valentine’s, or any Patriotic holiday party…
…then RED is your color!
We have a Pinterest Board that’s growing with more and more COLOR inspired party ideas (check it out here!), but today we’re going to take a look at some of our favorites for RED! 😀
Yarn Wrapped Candles by Camilla Fabbri
Aren’t these yarn wrapped candles so sweet? The same concept could be applied to jars at a candy bar or even around pitchers at a drink table.
Watermelon Snacks featured on 36th Avenue
Watermelon “popsciples” …really, watermelon anything sounds delicious!
They also make us think of summer, so if you’re having a summer party, it’s the perfect snack.
If you’re planning a party during a rainy season like we’re having right now in Alabama, you might want watermelon just to feel like summer is coming back at some point ha! (PS the link at 36th Avenue has several fun snacks featuring watermelon!)
Instagram Themed First Birthday Party on Pinterest
What a fun way to use balloons! This party used balloons to showcase pictures from the first year of the birthday boy, but they would be great at an anniversary party or engagement party too!
Your Alabama Wedding
We love this trellis covered in fragrant red roses! If you’re thinking of having an Alice in Wonderland party (or Alice in ONEderland for a first birthday), wouldn’t this be the perfect touch to the party area?
Deborah’s Party Rentals
Red Carpet Party? You’ll need these Stanchions lining your walkway to the front door to set the tone for your elegant event!
And of course, if you need a tent to coordinate with any red event, we have any size you may need!

Celebrating 25 Years of DPR! {with Cupcakes}

What’s one thing that you see at almost any birthday party? Topped in Buttercream, Royal Icing, Glaze, Cream Cheese Icing, or some other sweet delicacy…cupcakes make a delicious addition to a birthday. We’ve even seen parties where cupcakes are the entire theme of the party!
Cupcake Wishes & Birthday Dreams


This tent with a ceiling liner would be the icing on the (cup)cake at any birthday party!

We love this 50th Anniversary Cake with tiers of cupcakes!

Can you believe that this bouquet of flowers is actually a collection of cupcakes?
Almost too pretty to eat!

Some parties even have their own Cupcake Decorating Station, so the guests can show off their own creativity.

This year marks the 25th Anniversary of Deborah’s Party Rentals, so why not celebrate by dreaming of cupcakes? Here are some flavors we’d love to try at any birthday party, corporate gathering, or wedding!




Trending Themes for Kids’ Birthdays: Super Hero!



>>POW!<<      >>BAM!<<      >>ZAP!<<


For the third party in our series of Kids’ Birthdays, we bring you some SUPER ideas for a fun celebration! (We’ve also shared ideas for a Backyard Camping Party and for an Art Party).
When your heroes arrive to the scene, what better way to get the party started than to have a photo booth at the door? We love the idea of a city scene for the backdrop. Add an assortment of capes, masks, and speech bubbles based on your child’s favorite hero for props.

This backdrop at Tips from a Typical Mom Blog was made with a black plastic table cloth, some paper clouds and stars, and various boxes wrapped in black paper.  They added some rectangles cut from yellow paper for windows. A dark blue table cloth for an evening sky would look great too.
So simple and SUPER at the same time!
Tips from a Typical Mom Blog

These assorted masks available on Etsy would be cute in pictures!
(Store them with the kids’ dress-ups clothes to use for getting into character on non-party days.
LetsGetDecorative on Etsy
If your guests are old enough for a craft, you could provide felt or craft foam and string or elastic for them to make their own masks using one of the patterns at First Palette or JustBunch. Everyone could then model them in front of the city scene for a fun keepsake. (speaking of the mask and the photo! Wouldn’t a picture of the guest and birthday boy or girl be a sweet addition to a thank you note?)

JustBunch
This cape was made from a t-shirt and requires NO sewing…just a pair of scissors.  They even give instructions for how to create an iron on using your favorite hero’s logo.
Tutus & Tea Parties
There are some really creative ways to display the food for a SUPER party at Less Than Perfect Life of Bliss. We love how these drinks are stored in a bucket with a comic book style “POP” across the front. (They even decorated the ketchup and mustard bottles!)

Less Than Perfect Life of Bliss
Although these lollipops were designed as Valentines, they would be SUPER as a favor.
Little Bit Funky

We love love love this colorful Justice League moonwalk, perfect for every hero celebration.

We also came across some FREE printables that would make your party >>POP!<<
Pure Costumes
Use these colorful printouts to decorate your food table, goody bags, or the photo booth area.  Tape some clear string or fishing wire to the back of them and hang them from the ceiling. Print onto iron on paper to use to make a custom birthday shirt for the birthday boy or girl!

Photokapi


These would also be great on a T-Shirt (Mom, Dad, and Kid are included!) or print several of each letter for guests to color the letters of their name. Then they would be able to take their own SUPER name banner home after the party to hang in their room.

Hope we sparked some SUPER ideas to help you start planning your little Hero’s next birthday. Give us a call if you need to rent some tables, chairs, tents, concessions, or inflatables and we’ll help make sure it’s a memorable day for everyone!

Trending Themes for Kids’ Birthdays: Art Party



Welcome to the second party in our series of Kids’ Birthdays!

Do you have a little artist on your hands? (We know a few!)
An art party would be a fun event for boys and girls, ages 0 and up!
Plus, you’ll be able to use as many colors as you want in the decorations. 🙂


Speaking of colors, take a look at these invitations: one printed on a paint sample, and one made to look like a paint palette. How creative are they??
The Modest Homestead
Invite and Delight

We imagine that decorations for any Art Party would be full of color and whimsy…

As for snacks, really, anything goes as long as it’s brightly colored! However, some of these ideas went above and beyond and really added to the art theme. While looking for inspiration, we found so many beautiful cakes (inside and out!) as well as these adorable cake pops that used a paintbrush as the stick!
And Everything Sweet
Cravings of a Lunatic – Trix Krispies
Momma Told Me – Rainbow Grapes
These Rainbow Grapes are gorgeous…and only three ingredients! Water, Grapes, and Jello. We may have to try these soon…just to make sure they taste as good as they look!

McCormick Tie Dye Cake

Hi Sugarplum!

Depending on the age of the guests, you could have a table full of coloring pages and crayons, set up small canvases for everyone to paint and take home, let them decorate their own cupcakes, or set up a t-shirt tie dye station!

Tulip Tie Dye Your Summer


Here are some Tie-Dye Tips in case you need a refresher on how to come up with different designs!


When it comes to choosing an inflatable for the guests, we have oh-so-many beautiful, brightly colored, fun, affordable rentals that would match an Art Party, but this Crayola one would be one of our first picks!

An apron to wear during the party and then take home would be a nice way for the guests to remember how much fun they had, (and would keep their clothes clean…which is something all the parents will likely appreciate. 🙂 )

Doesn’t an Art Party sound like fun? If you plan one soon, send us an invitation and we’ll help you pick out whatever rentals you need to have plenty of space for all your artists to sit & eat!

We hope you’re enjoying our mini-series on Kids’ Birthdays and that you’re getting some good ideas for future parties.
