A ballet party is a gorgeous party theme for a little dance enthusiast. Here are some ideas on how to host one sweet and memorable party for your little dancer and their friends!

The Invitation

Set the scene with a pretty pink and gold invitation. There is a gorgeous range of designs available online, from digital to print invitations. We adore this Ballerina party invitation, complete with tutu and Ballet shoes.

The Dress Code

Tutus, of course! A Ballet Party is the perfect opportunity for your daughter to dance and twirl in her very best dancewear, from ballet leotards and tutus to tutu dresses and ballet shoes. 

The Food

Think pink! From pink lemonade, bowls of fresh strawberries, pink marshmallows and watermelon hearts, a ballet party menu can be dainty and sweet.

Cupcakes could be topped with Talking Tables gorgeous ‘We Heart Pink Cake Toppers’, which feature the sweetest tutu and pompom cake toppers.

Ballet slipper cookies are always a lovely touch too - The Dessert Studio makes a sweet range of ballet cookies and can ship their cookies Australia wide.

You can even add a touch of sweetness to the savoury food – use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to make little heart sandwiches for the little dancers to enjoy.

The Activities

Why not ask your child’s dance teacher if they will come and take a class for the birthday girl and their friends? Or set up a ‘Little Dancers Studio’ at your home and run a dance class for the party guests, complete with party games such as musical statues. You could even get the little dancers to put on a ‘concert’ for the parents at the end of the party.

The Decorations

Pink, pink, pink! CostumeBox.com.au has a fantastic range of pink partyware which is perfect for a Ballet Party. From the Pink Party Kit to their pretty pink lunch boxes and party hats. Don’t forget a jumbo pink balloon for the birthday girl to twirl with too!

There really is no prettier party theme than a Ballet Party! Happy party planning!
