Thank you Oriental Trading for providing me with some amazing Luau party supplies to use to host my daughter’s 10th birthday party. This post contains affiliate links to make your shopping easier.
Every year and for every kid, I do my best to throw an amazingly fun but affordable birthday party. This year my daughter was turning 10 and she requested her party to be at a cool snow cone shop called Bahama Bucks, so I knew it was time to plan a Luau party.
Since I wanted to make this the most colorful Luau themed party for my baby girl, I immediately contacted Oriental Trading Company because I knew that they had such an amazing selection and variety. With a Luau comes bright colors and lots and lots of flowers. I chose to stick with Hibiscus flowers because they are big and beautiful.
We invited 26 kids so we made sure to order 2 dozen of everything. In the end we had leftover favors because not as many kids showed up, but I have to admit that I was excited to have leftover supplies for later uses. The party favors included Hibiscus Sunglasses, Hibiscus Tattoos, Flower Leis, Bright Tropical Fans and Hibiscus Goody Bags filled with candy. The kids loved the party favors. They rocked the sunglasses and leis, sported their tattoos, and ate up the candy in their bags. They also enjoyed the fans but most of the kids found their fans ripped by the end of the party because they carelessly placed them in water puddles.
For the birthday cupcakes I wanted to go over the top and make them super cute! I decided to create a beach theme and use the most amazing shark suckers I have ever seen, in addition to some beautiful Hibiscus Cocktail Parasols! You can see my step by step tutorial on how to make my Beach Themed Cupcakes here. The kids LOVED them.
With the help of Oriental Trading Company, my daughter’s party came together perfectly. Their decorations made it so easy to plan the decorating portion of the party. The bright colors of the supplies came together and really brightened the party up. My daughter loved it and was so happy with how her 10 birthday party turned out.
