Besides a princess, many young girls dream of being a mermaid in their lifetime. As mommas, we want to make every dream come true for our little angels. Unfortunately, we can’t magically turn them into a mermaid, but we certainly can make them feel like one! If your girl can’t stop watching “The Little Mermaid,” then a mermaid birthday party would be perfect for her. 

Here is a beautiful, inspiring alternative to the traditional mermaid hues of blues, greens, and purples, if you’re looking to switch things up a bit! Boho has been quite trendy recently and combines effortlessly with the mermaid theme into a darling birthday party idea. This boho mermaid party thrown by Stephanie Hanna is simply stunning! Here we will share all of the boho party supplies and mermaid birthday decorations that you will need to DIY this mermaid party for your own little mermaid.

Boho Mermaid Birthday Party Decorations

We love the simple yet sparkly birthday cake for this boho mermaid birthday. This is a great boho birthday cake idea for any occasion! To recreate this cake at home, you could use the pink melamine cake stand from Ellie and Piper. We even have an entire range of fun cake toppers that you can use for cake decorations. This boho mermaid cake is certainly one to make the birthday girl smile!

There was a sea of balloons at this party which made the perfect mermaid party decorations. The pretty pastels complemented the color palette effortlessly. Our candy balloon garland and the matching candy balloon bouquet pair seamlessly with this theme and would be simple to put together at home. You can never have too many balloons! Adding on to the mermaid effect, you can drape fishnet over the balloons to make the little mermaids really feel like they are under the sea.

Glitter and mermaids go together just like birthdays and cake! When throwing a mermaid themed party, you can never have too much glitter. We have a mermaid confetti pack and a candy confetti pack that would be sure to make your table shine.

Here at our Ellie and Piper, crafting beautiful tablescapes is our specialty. This one is the perfect mixture between boho and mermaid. To begin, Stephanie used the cream simply eco large paper plates with the lilac purple paper plates on top. We love how she chose the purple color to offset the peach and pink tones. The goddess peach lunch napkins were paired with the matching gold cutlery. Our favorite part of this boho mermaid tablescape is the fun gold fringe cups. What better way to get in the party mood than gold fringe!

Let’s face it; most children are excited about birthday parties because of the sweets and the goodie bags. With a boho mermaid themed party, there are so many different ideas to roll with to create an exciting goodie bag for your little guests. Available as party favors at our shop, we have mermaid party hats, mermaid wands, mermaid headbands, and even mermaid temporary tattoos!

The little mermaids at the party will feel like they just stepped under the sea to hang out with Ariel and her sisters at this birthday party. This would be such a fun-themed birthday party to play dress up and truly get to live out their mermaid dream. We love getting to see all of the events that our Ellie and Piper party lovers put together.
