How To Throw An EASY Pirate Party

Throwing a Pirate Party would have to be one of the easiest themes we can think of here at The Vinyl Order.

We’re all about ease, budget and a fair bit of focus on reducing waste and repurposing those items that are leftover.

While we have the fancy machines to cut your Cake Toppers & Cupcake toppers, you don’t need a whole lot of jazz to pull the whole Pirate Party theme off.

Here are some items which are cost-friendly, easy to source and look SO good!

Chocolate Coins – These are a better option than plastic coins as they double as treats. That being said, some kids are avid roleplayers and those Plastic Pirate coins really go a long way. Pop into your local dollar store or Kmart, you’re bound to find some chocolate coins there.

Black Table Covers – You can usually pick these up at Big W or Kmart for under $3. Spread some gold coins across the table to really pull it together!

Balloons – Latex Balloons are fairly reasonable in price, and these days you can get packs of solid colours. Black, Brown and Red look amazing for a Pirate Party theme. If you can get your hands on some Metallic gold ones, this really adds some Pirate BLING to the mix.

If you’re going BIG, we have some Pirate Ship Foil Ballons which come in packs of three.

Pirate Party Flags – DIY Flags are super easy! On an a4 paper, print out a Pirate Flag design and attach it to a long Kebab Stick or a Balloon Stick. Make sure you cut down the sharp end so it’s safe to be left around the kiddies.

Music – Get the tunes pumping! There is some great Pirate Themed Kids’ music on Youtube. For background theme music, Epic Pirate Music by Brandon Fiechter’s Music is perfect.

These are just a few things that are super easy to get organised and will keep the party on budget. We’re always available to chat if you need some advice. Message us any time!
