Disco Party Supplies

Have you noticed how much harder it is to get creative with kid’s parties the older they get?

Much to my delight, the popular disco theme is making a comeback and is a popular choice for both parents and kids alike – either at home, Scout’s hall or purpose built party venue. They remind me of the school discos we loved attending as kids ourselves.

The best part? The inner stylist in us can still be let loose to decorate and style up a storm!

So here’s our finds for pulling together a stylish and fun-filled disco party with the help of a few of our LLC Vendors starting with of course the best disco kids party entertainment out there – Bop til you Drop!:

 

 

Here’s some fun disco party inspiration for you starting with this fun NYE setup which has a “disco” feel to it and elements you could definitely translate into a disco theme! You can see the whole setup here in our magazine:

Disco Party decorations

It goes without saying that every disco needs a disco ball, right? But who said we should stop at one bright and shiny object!

Go to town with decorating your space with lots of silver, iridescent colours, and balloons for a modern take on Saturday Night Fever.

Pink Rockstar birthday party feature

This fun Pink Rockstar party is filled with lots of great ideas of food and activities for this party theme! It was put together by Gayle from I Will Invitations for her daughters birthday and she designed all the stationery.

I love the whole setup that Gayle created – the pink carpet (using a plastic tablecloth), the light towers and cardboard speakers!

 

The dessert table has so many creative items all linked to a rockstar party theme!:

Such a clever way of presenting some “drum stick” desserts:

Love how the guitar wings have been used on these tubes:

Fantastic microphone cupcake idea:

How cool is the record cupcake tower?!:

There was lots of fun for the kids with VIP passes, guitar decorating and dress up’s:

Rockstar party theme

Rockstar and Disco parties seem to becoming more popular recently – perhaps because of shows such as X-factor, The Voice etc or just generally because music will always be loved by kids!

I’ve based my selections on this blog post around the colours of pink, purple, gold, silver and black. By no means am I suggesting you combine all these colours for this party, but most girl rock star parties seem to feature one or two of these colours. For boys – any colour scheme seems to work although red seems to be a popular inclusion. Another way to style this party is use neon colours to make it really bright and bold!

For this theme think disco balls, guitars, music notes, stars, shimmer and sparkle with bold colours. Have fun activity/areas such as a rockstar dress up station, photobooth area, karoke area and craft such as ‘decorate your own guitar’.

Hope this blog post gives you lots of ideas! Remember to visit the Life’s Little Celebration’s party directory for vendors to use for this theme. Plenty of suppliers who can also create something custom made to match your theme and colour scheme.

 

Rock Star party Invitations/Printables

I’ve chosen printables suiting a range of colour schemes because really anything can work as long as you decorate the party to match your chosen colours.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Decorations & Tableware

Bring some sparkle to your party with some of these decorations:

 

 

 

 

A tinsel curtain such as this would be great at the entrance to your party area or perhaps serve as a backdrop for a photo booth area:

For your main hanging decorations and backdrop I think anything can work as long as it’s bold in whatever colour scheme you are going with.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Guitar streamer decorations like this would be great used in any part of your party area:

 

A cute guitar garland for a boy’s rock star party that you could then hang in his room afterwards:

 

Another lovely decoration which would be great in a kid’s bedroom for after the party. Simple and stylish:

 

A few possible items for your tableware for your kid’s food table:

 

 

 

 

Sweet Treats

A few items which could be used on your dessert table:

 

 

 

 

 

Unique cupcake wrappers which can be made in your choice of colour:

 

This bright cake stand is  perfect for the party table:

 

 

 

Love this cake topper !

Bright neon candles perfect for a rockstar party:

 

Rock Star party – special theme items

This ‘design your own guitar kit’ would be a fantastic party activity for the kids:

 

 

 

A photo booth area is perfect for a rock star party. Have some props such as glasses, wigs and inflatable items for the kids to pose with:

 

 

 

 

Give out VIP passes to all the kids as they arrive at the party:

 

These items could be used as favours or given for the kids to wear during the party itself. You could have a ‘dress as a rockstar’ station with various items for them to get dressed up in.

 

 

 

Favour packaging

Some stylish options for your favour packaging:

 

 

 

 

Top off your packaging with this twine in either silver or gold stripe:
