Harry Potter Wizard Themed 6th Birthday Party

This fabulous HARRY POTTER WIZARD THEMED SIXTH BIRTHDAY PARTY was submitted by Rachel Johnson of Creative Little Stars. For those of you who are looking for great Harry Potter party ideas, look no further than this party! Rachel did a wonderful job!

Rachel said this about planning the party- “We had so much fun creating this 6th birthday Wizard party. The venue we chose was the local park, which was surrounded by owl pictures and figurines. The party was complete with a specially erected spell room of which birthday Wizard Ryan had exclusive access to practice his wizardry powers!

The party guests sat down to a super-natural feast prepared by Ryan’s Grandma. The menu included jelly brains, and was topped off by a deathly delicious Grave Yard Cake. Harry Potter music filled the ears of Ryan’s 20 friends, which really added to the ambiance of the day. Ryan’s Mum ensured the scene was set by providing a smoke machine, making the children feel like they were at Hogwarts and also dressing up like a witch. Mosman party Hire supplied a handful of the children’s costumes to make sure they really got into character.

We added further finishing touches by including printable stationery and a printable Wizard Game collection, available on our website.”

Harry Potter Themed Birthday Party

All of you Harry Potter fans out there are going to love this HARRY POTTER THEMED BIRTHDAY PARTY submitted by Katelyn Meekel of Events by Kate!

Katelyn said- “This collection of items makes up my “Harry Potter Inspired Party”…This party was designed and tailored for a young lady named “Maddy” & she loves Harry Potter. I designed “Every Flavor Beans”, “Half Blood Prince Potion Books” where each child is free to print their name, as well as “Deathly Dark Chocolate” for all the sweets lovers! “Anything off the trolley?” I also created potion bottle labels and liquid luck containers for the kid’s games. They must make up a concoction of magical beverages to make the best potion in the class, while keeping track of their thoughts and ingredients in their notebooks! Everyone also receives their own golden snitch! I love Harry Potter, and I hope you all enjoy the wonderful wizarding printables that can be found in my shop!” Vendor Credits: Photography, event design, party printables- Events by Kate Party Supplies used in this party that are available in Kara’s Party Ideas Shop: Glass Spice Jar with Cork Stopper Small Mason Jars

     

Harry Potter Birthday Party

This HARRY POTTER BIRTHDAY PARTY submitted by Jennifer Turpen of The Brilliant Crafty Type is just full of fun ideas!

Jennifer said- “My daughter decided on a Harry Potter party theme last year, so I had plenty of time to prepare. So, I planned and crafted for months {some of the tutorials are included on my blog}. A lot of the party guests were not Harry Potter connoisseurs so they may not have fully understood what everything meant. But they definitely appreciated the party! What isn’t to love about magic wands, adorable felt pin-on ties, chocolate frogs and jelly beans? And every one likes a good burger – perhaps you’d like to try a “Malfoy” {burger with swiss} or a “Weasley” {cheddar instead} or maybe you are more of a “Herwieney” fan. I had a ton of fun with the details. I think in party planning the details are what it’s all about. I also think in party planning you have to be prepared for something to just not quite meet your expectations {like my food display at The Three Broomsticks}. Just have to let it go and appreciate the rest!”

Harry Potter + Make-a-Wish Foundation Party!

I thought this HARRY POTTER + MAKE A WISH PARTY by Emily of Spaghetti Arms was also fitting for teacher appreciation week. After all, Harry spent most of his time being taught and schooled, right?!

This party is wonderful. Emily did such a good job, and for such a great cause, too.

I know that a lot of people have been looking for great Harry Potter birthday party ideas, as well. So here you go!

This is what Emily had to say about the party- “Styling creative parties is a huge hobby of mine, and I am beyond excited to share this party with you! Last weekend, I had the honor and privilege of helping with a very special event for an even more special young lady. Make A Wish Foundation of Middle Tennessee grants wishes to children with life-threatening illnesses. Milla, a seriously cool fifteen-year-old, is about six months into the two-year recovery process after a battle with leukemia. She has faced so much in her young life, and through it all, she has been inspired and cheered by the Harry Potter books. Her wish was to go to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios in Orlando. When Make A Wish grants a wish, they like to have a “wish party” to give the honored child the official news. The folks at Nashville’s beloved Parnassus Books hosted Milla’s wish party, and the beautiful bookstore proved to be the perfect setting for all of the Potter paraphernalia. Two of my biggest loves are parties and Harry Potter, so I went a little nuts! Let’s just jump right into the photos, graciously provided by the talented Niki Cardwell of Stella Dolce Photography!” Credits: Photography: Stella Dolce Photography Cupcakes: The Painted Cupcake All other props and food, banners, styling: DIY by Emily from Spaghetti Arms Venue: Parnassus Books in Nashville, TN
