If you’re planning a Moana birthday party for your little one but don’t want to get overwhelmed with endless details, this setup is proof that simple can still be magical. I gave Moana an extra girly twist with a tropical color palette of pink, coral, and yellow, creating a fresh take on the classic Disney theme. With a few custom touches, easy DIYs, and one big statement backdrop, this party came together quickly while still looking picture-perfect.

Moana is a favorite for so many kids—between the tropical vibes, ocean adventures, and inspiring storyline, it’s no surprise she’s one of the most popular birthday themes. For this celebration, I wanted to capture the spirit of Moana while adding a softer, girly touch through the colors and details (like I always do!)

This party was designed to be low-stress but still impactful. Instead of filling the room with dozens of decorations, I focused on one big statement—the custom party backdrop—and then layered in a few coordinating details. That approach gave me maximum impact with minimum effort.

Some of my favorite party elements were:

Custom balloon garland to tie the tropical color scheme together
Vintage style Moana Birthday Cake with lambeth piping and seashells
and of course the custom invitation that set the scene and mood for the big day
