How To Host A Barbie Themed Party: Create a Dreamhouse Celebration
Whether you’re planning a Barbie themed party for a birthday or hosting a fun Barbie movie watch party, this guide will help you create a fabulous and glamorous event.
From the perfect pink decorations to Barbie-inspired snacks, activities, and Barbie party supplies. We’ve got everything you need. So, let’s dive into planning your dream Barbie party!
Step 1: Send Out Glamorous Invitations
The first step in planning your Barbie themed party is to send out invitations that set the tone for a stylish and fun event.
Choose invitations that feature Barbie’s signature pink color, glitter, or even images of Barbie herself. You could opt for a design that resembles Barbie’s Dreamhouse or her convertible car to make it extra special.
Step 2: Create a Dreamhouse Atmosphere
Transform your party space into a Barbie Dreamhouse with the right decorations. Start with a color scheme of pink, gold, and white, and add lots of sparkly accents.
Hang pink and gold streamers, balloons, and banners to create a festive atmosphere.
You can even set up a Barbie backdrop for photos, complete with a life-sized Barbie box for guests to pose in as if they’re dolls themselves!

Add fun details like Barbie silhouettes, pink flowers, and gold accents throughout the space. Consider creating themed table settings with pink tablecloths, Barbie plates, and cups.
Step 3: Dress Up Like Barbie
Encourage your guests to dress up like Barbie, Ken, or any of Barbie’s friends for the party.
Whether it’s a glamorous gown, a fun beach outfit, or a career-inspired look, the possibilities are endless! You could even host a fashion show or costume contest where guests can show off their outfits and win prizes.
For those looking to purchase Barbie-inspired costumes, Amazon offers a variety of options. UK shoppers can explore this collection while US shoppers should check here.
If it’s a movie/Margot Robbie type party you’re throwing then I’d recommend combining this with a red carpet glam themed party.
Step 4: Serve Up Barbie-Inspired Snacks and Drinks
No Barbie themed party would be complete without a menu that’s just as fabulous as the decor. Create a spread of Barbie-inspired snacks and drinks that will wow your guests.
Think pink cupcakes with glittery sprinkles, Barbie-shaped cookies, and pink lemonade served in fancy glasses. You can also set up a DIY sundae bar with lots of pink toppings, or make mini sandwiches cut into fun shapes.
For drinks, consider serving “Malibu Dream” mocktails or “Barbie-tinis” (for adult guests) in stylish glasses with pink sugar rims.
Step 5: Plan Fun Barbie Activities and Games
To keep your guests entertained, plan some fun Barbie-themed activities and games.
You could set up a “Design Your Own Barbie Outfit” station where guests can decorate paper dolls with fabric, stickers, and markers. Another idea is to host a “Barbie Bingo” game with Barbie-themed prizes for the winners.
If you’re hosting a Barbie movie watch party, create a cozy viewing area with plenty of pillows, blankets, and popcorn. You could even make it a Barbie movie marathon and screen multiple Barbie movies back-to-back.
Step 6: Set Up a Glamorous Photo Booth
Capture all the glitz and glamour of your Barbie themed party by setting up a photo booth with lots of Barbie-inspired props.
Provide accessories like oversized sunglasses, feather boas, tiaras, and Barbie dolls for guests to pose with. You can create a pink and sparkly backdrop or a Barbie Dreamhouse scene for photos.
For an extra touch, consider creating a “Barbie Box” photo prop where guests can pose inside as if they’re part of the Barbie collection.
Step 7: Send Guests Home with Fabulous Party Favors
As your Barbie themed party comes to an end, send your guests home with some fabulous party favors that they’ll love.
Consider giving out mini Barbie dolls, pink nail polish, or sparkly accessories like bracelets or sunglasses. You could also create DIY Barbie favor bags with pink candy, stickers, and small toys.
Conclusion
Hosting a Barbie themed party is a great way to celebrate a birthday or enjoy a movie watch party with friends who love all things Barbie.
With the right decorations, snacks, activities, and party favors, you can create an event that’s as fabulous and fun as Barbie herself. So gather your friends, get creative, and plan a Barbie party that everyone will remember!
