CUTE COWBOY BIRTHDAY PARTY IDEAS
Searching for a fun birthday party theme for your little girl or boy?

So, saddle up, because we’re sharing our top tips on how to throw the best cowboy birthday party in the West.
COWBOY PARTY DECORATIONS
Set the scene with rodeo-inspired decorations. For the ultimate Wild West atmosphere, deck out your space with hay bales, horseshoes, lassos and cowboy-themed balloons.
For this little cowboy’s first birthday, his mama chose a blue and tan color scheme. With the help of Pop Park City, she created a stunning balloon garland embellished with bandanas, horses, and cowboy boot balloons.
This horse party banner is another great cowboy party decoration, especially if you’re celebrating a horse lover’s birthday. If it’s your little one’s first rodeo, be sure to complete the look with a ‘one’ high chair banner!
Cowboy Party Table
For the tablescape, keep things neutral with a simple checkered tablecloth, then bring in pops of color with the paperware.
Walker's mom started with a brown striped table runner. She layered cowboy hat plates over our Sky Blue Compostable Plates. Next, she added our French Creme Eco Napkins and alternated cowboy-themed napkins at each place setting. To complete the look, she added bandana cups and set out some licorice 'lassos' for guests to use as a sustainable (and super tasty) straw!
If a muted palette isn’t for you, throw in some extra blue jean and bandana tones. These Blue Cowboy Boot Shaped Napkins featuring stunning shades of blue and luxurious gold detailing, are perfect for adding a touch of Western style to any birthday party with a horse or rodeo theme. The white star plates are a nod to Texas, the lone star state! Finally, the bright red details on the bandana napkins, will have your guests screaming, “yee-haw!”
For those seeking a more horse-forward cowboy party experience, combine our signature party plates and napkins with these stunning Horse-Shaped Plates. Your guests will be galloping to join in the festivities, whether at the party table or at the bar for a lively Derby watch party! Lastly, sip in style (did someone say mint juleps?) with these prized Trophy Cups with shiny gold foil details.
COWBOY PARTY CAKE
The star of any cowboy party is the cake! Walker’s mom made this darling first birthday cake complete with cowboy-themed toppers, like a Sheriff's badge, horseshoe, cowboy hat and boots, and sweet horse! She displayed it as decor alongside this stunning sunflower floral arrangement from Flower Bar Co (another wonderful Western-themed accent).
COWBOY PARTY ACTIVITIES
No cowboy birthday party is complete without some fun and games. To keep those little cowboys and cowgirls busy, we suggest organizing some Wild West-themed activities like ‘pin the badge on the sheriff’ or a gold rush treasure hunt!

And for the winner, be sure to have those horse ribbon party favors ready to add even more excitement to your party!
