How to Prepare For Your Princess Party

When you choose The Princess Party Co. in San Antonio, you’re in for a magical and charming day! We will take care of everything related to your princess visitor, so you don’t have to worry. We’ve even put together some of our best tips to help you plan the other elements of the big day!

Complete Your Questionnaire

Don’t worry if this sounds a little bit like homework, because our questionnaire is quite simple and incredibly useful! Shortly after you reserve your party with us, we’ll send it to you via email. You will use it to lay out all the logistical details of your party in one place, like the date, time, and address of your home or party venue. You’ll also have the chance to tell us more about your little girl, like anything that will help us better prepare a princess party that is personal to her. The great thing about the questionnaire is that you’ll be able to have all your party details in one place, making your princess party planning a stress-free experience.

Plan Your Invitations

Invitations are a necessity, but the type of invitation is completely up to you! Some choose to do their invites completely digitally, either by designing them online through a service or just sending simple emailed cards. Another route is picking up pre-designed invitations from a party supply store that have a similar color palette or theme to your party. Or, you can browse online shops for the perfect template and order customized invitations that will be sent to you. The most important thing is to make sure you cover all the details your guests will absolutely need to know: date, time, place, and RSVP info.

Figure Out Your Decorations

You don’t have to be a brilliant designer to put together an enchanting princess party space! Using your princess guest as the theme of your decor is the easiest way to give your party a cohesive, immersive, magical feel. Take a trip to Party City to stock up on colorful balloons, streamers, and tableware that will match your princess’ signature colors. If Rapunzel is on her way, purple and gold is perfect, and for an Aurora party, baby blue and light pink will be just the thing. You can take things a step further by placing items that appear in the well-known stories your princess lives in throughout your party decor.

Bake or Buy a Cake

Children’s parties aren’t complete without a delicious treat to finish out the afternoon! Your princess party cake can be simple or elaborate as long as it’s sugary sweet. A round or sheet cake will be just as tasty as a large creation of layers and fondant. Colored icing that matches your princess guest’s signature colors will be perfect for the special occasion. Details like sugar pearls, lacy icing, and princess figurines will add an extra magical touch!

Gather Party Favors

Remember how excited you used to be to leave a friend’s party with a plastic treat bag full of goodies swinging from your wrist? That’s one party tradition that’s still going strong, and your little girl’s friends will be equally delighted to leave with a small token of their own. All the classics like candy, stickers, and temporary tattoos are still favorites, but other items, like small toys, crowns, wands, and dolls are also perfect for a princess party!

Tell Your Guests About the Princess

When a princess attends an event, it’s big news. At our princess parties, we always recommend telling your guests about the special visitor. Your first instinct may be to keep the princess a surprise, but in order to ensure that everyone truly has a magical time, telling them about her presence ahead of time is the best course of action. We want your party to be a success, and with every child comfortable and ready to befriend their favorite princess, it surely will be!
