Luau Birthday Party

Aloha, party people! Get ready to dive into a sea of fun with this fabulous Luau Birthday Party, overflowing with vibrant tropical vibes and sunny smiles! This birthday girl is turning 6 and totally head over heels for Hawaii, so a tropical luau theme was the perfect choice for her special day. Grab your leis and hula on over to this unforgettable celebration!

The venue was a stunning home in Paradise Valley, Arizona, complete with a beautiful pool surrounded by palm trees and beach chairs. It was the perfect tropical paradise!

Guests were welcomed to “Georgia’s Island” with vibrant floral leis to wear around their necks. Gorgeous fresh leis, crafted from purple orchids by Yknot Flowers, were specially made for mom, the birthday girl, and her sister. Everyone was ready for some Hawaiian fun!

A burst of bright colors like hot pinks, purples, and yellows brought a tropical flair to this fabulous event! The luau decorations, styled and designed by Events Your Way, featured vibrant pink linens, lively signs, palm leaves under the dessert platters, bamboo skirting, and a playful flip-flop banner.

Next to the dessert table was the fantastic fruit table. Roberts Catering wowed everyone with a turtle carved from a watermelon – it was truly amazing! They also created a palm tree out of pineapples, surrounded by an array of fresh fruit. Guests could dip their fruit into strawberry yogurt served in a cute plastic coconut.

Sue Jacobs of Sue Jacobs Cakes delivered a showstopper three-tier tropical cake adorned with fun fondant pieces like surfboards, flowers, and tiki gods. The bottom layer, a delightful pink champagne flavor, was wrapped in fondant grass skirts. The middle tier was a delicious red velvet, and the top tier was a mouthwatering chocolate chocolate chip. Yum, what a dreamy combination!

The dessert table was the star of the party! Decked out with a tan linen and grass skirting, it was set against a charming bamboo wall adorned with festive banners. Guests were treated to an irresistible array of desserts, beautifully displayed on glass blocks, tiles, and bamboo platters. Everything looked absolutely scrumptious!

The lemon squares, mini fruit tarts, and cake pops from Honey Moon Sweets were absolutely delectable! The cake pops were super adorable—some looked like mini pineapples and were displayed on bamboo platters. Others were decorated with tropical colors and flowers, creatively arranged to stick out of a pineapple. So clever and cute!

Signs were crafted for every dessert, beverage, party favor table, and macaron display. Kim from The Events Essentials used light pink glitter paper and bright-colored letters to guide guests to the gift table, party favors, and macaron display. The smaller table tent signs were adorned with pink hibiscus flowers, adding a perfect tropical touch.

The caramel apples were sprinkled with colorful sprinkles and coconuts, making them look as delightful as they tasted. Hawaiian cookies, cut out to resemble Hawaiian shirts, grass skirts, and flowers, added a playful touch.

Sprinkles Cupcakes delivered an array of mouthwatering flavors—red velvet, cinnamon sugar, and pumpkin—all topped with adorable pineapple frills. To top it off, four different kinds of macarons were elegantly displayed on a homemade stand, beautifully adorned with palm leaves and fresh flowers.

Hawaiian plates, napkins and silverware were displayed in bins with grass skirts and glitter flowers.

On the party favor table, mini water bottles labeled “Waikiki Water” were dressed in tiny grass bamboo skirts and topped with Hawaiian-themed paper caps.

The guest table centerpieces were truly stunning! A striking bird of paradise flower stood tall at the center, surrounded by lush pit greens, bear grass, pink roses, pink wax flowers, and a swirl of vibrant purple cymbidium orchids. Absolutely breathtaking!

The adorable tiki hut featured a charming flip-flop banner hanging from its roof. Themers Events supplied fantastic luau decor, including the tiki hut, tiki gods, a bamboo wall, and tables, and chairs–setting the perfect tropical scene for this fun luau!

As guests entered the party, they were greeted by the sweet sounds of Hawaiian music, thanks to DJ Flo Entertainment.

April from Orohena Luau Entertainment led the kids in lively hula dance lessons, while a mom-and-daughter duo showed the birthday girl and her friends how to shake their hips to several songs.

Between hula dancing, swimming, and eating, the kids enjoyed games like limbo and a ball toss. Kona Ice delighted everyone with tropical-flavored shaved ice, featuring popular flavors like pineapple, mango, strawberry, and banana. What a blast!

Each child received a fun-filled plastic bin packed with luau party goodies like a hula skirt, a cuddly stuffed bear, bubbles, gum, and candy. Each bin was topped with a round “thank you for coming” tag. What a fabulous tropical luau birthday party, brimming with unforgettable memories for this lucky birthday girl!
