When the Beauty and the Beast live action movie came out in 2017 my mom and I wanted to celebrate our birthdays with a Beauty and the Beast Party! As soon as we said it, my brain was already in full planning mode. I already had ideas for the rose, the party decorations and my mom was in charge of the cake. Here are some Beauty and the Beast Party ideas for decorations, place settings, food, and costumes!
Beauty And The Beast Party Decorations
The Beast’s Rose
The centerpiece of our party has to be the beast’s rose. As soon as I thought of it, I envisioned the rose inside a glass dome, dripping with little twinkle lights. I found the supplies for it at Michael’s and Amazon and got right to work putting it together. It was very simple and was just what we needed!
Glass Dome – Approximately 11 inches high. You want it to stand out on the table as the centerpiece.
LED Lights – I prefer the warm color lights
Silk Rose – You can find these on amazon or any craft store.
Green Foam – You can also find these at amazon or any craft store.
Tea
No party wouldn’t be complete without some tea served in a fancy pot with cups. I really want the Mrs. Potts tea set. But we used our own tea cups and pot. I’d love to get a fancy set like this to keep on display at my house and to use for special tea time.
I love tea and I collect antique tea cups. When I brought my mom to Disney with me during Princess Half Marathon weekend, we made a date to have tea at the Grand Floridian. This is an experience you must do at least once, if not every time you go to Disney!
Characters
I wish I had an old clock like Cogsworth and a candelabra like Lumiere. But we made due and my mom made some items to fill the part.
I loved the picture frames sprinkled around the kitchen with Belle and the Beast. It was a nice touch!
Beauty And The Beast Party Place Settings
I wanted each person at the party to have a “Be Our Guest” invitation at each place setting. I created a small napkin holder with a mirror and a rose with a tag that read “Be Our Guest”. These items can be found at Michael’s.
Beauty And The Beast Party Desserts
The Grey Stuff Recipe
For dessert we had a special cake made and I of course had to make the grey stuff!
Ingredients
- 1 3.4 oz vanilla pudding mix
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 15 oreos
- 8 oz cool whip
- 2 tbsp chocolate pudding mix
- pearl sprinkles
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine pudding mix and milk. Whisk well and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
- Place Oreos in a food processor and blend until they become crumbs.
- Mix the crushed Oreos in with the pudding mixture and mix well.
- Fold in Cool Whip and chocolate pudding mix until well combined and refrigerate for one hour before serving.
- When ready to serve, place “grey stuff” in a piping bag and add a dollop to the middle and then pipe a spiral around it. Top with sprinkles.
- ENJOY!
The Cake
We also had a beautiful cake made by a friend of my mom’s. It was the perfect addition to our party theme.
Disney Bounding
I love to dress in costume for the runDisney races that I participate in. For one of the Princess weekends, I dressed as Princess Belle for the half marathon and provincial Belle for the 10K.
