Here’s what Nicole had to say about planning the party- “It’s been wild, a total roar…..Our little party animal is turning 4!
This was such a fun party, from the awesome centerpieces to the bling sticks on the cake pops. The kids had a blast exploring the yard for tiny jungle animals using their binoculars and wearing safari hats they decorated with stickers.
We also had a face painter so most kids were transformed into leopards and zebras!
My favorite was the dessert table. I love the giraffe print backdrop with the burlap outline. And all the desserts were so yummy!
We had a beverage station setup with plastic milk bottles for the kids and mason jars for the adults. They were wrapped in burlap and ribbon with a cute paper straw.
The appetizer table had burlap placemats and fun zebra plates. With individual candy cup portions that made it super easy for the guests and it was a really cute display.”

I can’t believe all of the fabulous details in this jungle safari themed party! Some of the things I like best are:
The creative desserts like chocolate “bark”, butterscotch “bamboo” sticks, s’mores pops and “fuzzy peaches” gummy peach candies
The jungle animals made entirely out of balloons
The burlap and bamboo stick backdrop and centerpieces
and MORE!
Here’s what Nancy had to say about the party- “The venue had the perfect backdrop with its industrial setting for the client’s Safari Party. From the Dessert Table to the Decor, Drinks, Centerpieces and even table wear; the Safari Themed was carried out in every way!!”

Here’s what Laila said about planning the party- “This year for my daughter’s third birthday party, I decided to celebrate her love for animals and throw her a colorful animal centered party. I started the design process by illustrating silhouettes of her favorite animals and then deciding to go with a bright and very colorful color palette. The invitations featured all the colors and so the party began to take shape. I fell in love with the look of succulents and enlisted Isabel Isaac from Isaac Farms to create the three centerpieces I used for the adult tables. My daughter’s only request was that actual animals showed up to the party (well that and lots of candies and a cake of course) so I searched and found through my talented baker, Safari Edventures here in Miami. I always team up with Brantley from Sweet Brantley’s for anything that has to do with sweets. She translated the invitation and the look of the party so well into our 3 tiered cake!
For the party favors, I found perfect safari themed puzzles at target and wrapped them in kraft paper. I used the patterns I had created to print a large sticker to wrap around the presents and did a circular tag with each child’s name on it to put on top of that. I knew from the very beginning that I wanted crates, the problem was that I wanted a more vintage look than most of the store bought crates have, so I collected hand stamped wine crates that I found had more personality. To give the party a more festive look, I added the crates full of tillandsias and the moss around the crates. I bought plastic animals I used to decorate the tables and to fill the piñata as well.
For the linens, I knew I wanted burlap to offset the colors of the bright decorations I had done, so I did an off white linen and a burlap overlay in all the food tables, I used colorful linens for the rest of the tables. To make it even more colorful, I purchased balloons, I wanted to add a special touch to some of the balloons, so I purchased 1″ confetti (in the colors of the party) and hand filled clear balloons with them. I found they gave the party that extra special touch.”

This exquisit SAFARI + ZOO THEMED THIRD BIRTHDAY PARTY was submitted by Cassia Schutt of Meemo Party Accessories!
Cassia said- “This party was designed by Meemo, my party accessories business that is established both in Macau (China) by me and in Brazil by my friend and partner, Thais. We both decided to create Meemo when we realized we couldn’t find pretty partyware for our kids’ birthday parties. How come we can’t find good stuff for retail in China, where practically everything is produced and exported to the world??!
So living in China, I was very happy to celebrate my son Noah’s birthday for the first time in Brazil, where our family lives. One of Noah’s biggest passions are animals, and after we went on a Safari in Bali, earlier this year, I got the inspiration to throw this wild party to celebrate his 3rd birthday!
Everything was DIY with the great help of my family, friends and partner at Meemo party Accessories. Both of us share the love for simple and beautiful celebrations, that are handmade with care and joy. Every detail of this party was carefully thought of and even the buffet staff was dressed as Safari keepers! All the decor and party printables had a touch of Balinese ikat patterns, and rustic jute and wooden materials were used everywhere! Also the wooden animals that were used as table decoration came from Bali. For the sweets I chose the famous Brazilian chocolate “brigadeiro” that was also given as a party favor in small burlap bags. Also as party favors, the kids took home cotton bags that were hand painted with an elephant stencil, with binoculars, a wild animal mask and a safari hat!!
The recreation staff were amazing and kept the children entertained the whole time with storytelling, face painting, fake tattoos, and cute songs that brought up some sweet memories of my childhood! Happy Roarrrr Birthday Noah boy!”
