Minecraft Birthday Party

Party Details:

“My 8-year-old loves playing video games and Minecraft is definitely his favorite game. He loves to design and build houses and I love seeing him exercising his creative muscles through Minecraft. That said, having a Minecraft themed birthday party is no doubt a dream come true for him!

Minecraft Backdrop Decorations 

For the backdrop decoration, I chose the classic video game colors of black, lime green and white as the main colors to keep the background modern and clean. With black and gray painted on the wooden backdrops, we made an organic balloon garland and incorporated some black starburst and Minecraft Creeper foil balloons to set the scene.

Next to the dessert table, I stacked some fun Minecraft cubes that could also be worn as costume masks. Along with a green number 8 balloon, it made a great backdrop for birthday party photos!

Minecraft Tablescape

I set up a picnic table for kids on the grass area to enjoy their treats and cakes. Besides Minecraft themed tablewares, I included some basic yet sophisticated square plates to give it a modern look. I also prepared some fun TNT party poppers and set up the party favor bags on the table for the young guests.

Minecraft Themed Party Snacks

I recently had a baby girl so for the party food, I opted for store-bought snacks to make my life a little easier. ;) To make these snacks more fun and “on-theme,” I got some inspirations and ideas from the Internet, including using carrots, chocolate coins for money, Swedish fish, melon slice gummies, pretzel sticks, and cut Twizzlers to make TNTs. I also made some blue Jellos as ‘water’ from the game. The kids loved these fun and creative treats. And I LOVE how easy these Minecraft themed treats were to prepare!

My husband was originally from Brazil so brigadeiros, the Brazilian bite-size chocolate sweets are always a must in our family birthday parties. For this party, I specifically chose three different colors and arranged them as the Minecraft sword.

Minecraft TNT Birthday Cake

I love how this Minecraft TNT birthday cake turned out. To make it even more fun, the cake artist, Daphne put some Skittles and gummy candies in the cake and that was definitely a sweet surprise for the kids when we cut the cake!

Minecraft TNT Bounce House

I rented a black bounce house and decorated it with a jumbo balloon garland in black, white and red. I added some Minecraft TNT foil balloons and silver starburst balloons to create the explosion effect. I also prepared some inflatable pixel style swords and axes for kids to play. They were such a hit at the party!

Minecraft Creeper Piñata 

I came across this Minecraft Creeper cube shaped piñata which was a perfect match for the party.

My son loved his Minecraft party and so did his friends. So happy that we got to create another memorable memory together!” – Yao Yu | Momo Party
