Alice In Wonderland Party Ideas

Use These Ideas To Throw A Wonderful Alice In Wonderland Themed Party

Lewis Carroll's Alice stories (Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There) have never been out of print. These cherished stores have been adapted into movies, television shows, radio plays, and more.

Now, Alice's popularity has truly transcended its literary beginnings. Alice and her adventures have taken over the world of social events; every year, thousands of children and adults attend Alice in Wonderland themed parties. Thinking of throwing one yourself? Here are a few ideas to help.

At Blossom Costumes, we stock thousands of different costumes. We have flexible payment options, fast delivery, and the perfect costumes for book week, dress up parties, cosplay, Halloween and more. It's so out of this world, you'll think you've fallen down the rabbit hole.

Alice in Wonderland themed invitations

Preparations for your party will begin long before the start time. Get your guests in the right spirit by sending them Alice in Wonderland-themed invitations.

Hot tip: Because the books are so old, the original art has been in the public domain for generations. You can use it without worrying about the legal side of things.

Dress up as Alice for your Wonderland party

There are some stock items that are present in almost every Alice costume: white tights, a blue dress, and a blonde wig. However, when you go deeper into the details, there are infinite varieties. We stock a huge range of different Alice costumes so that you can have all the details exactly as you want them.

Dish up Alice in Wonderland themed food and drink

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is a delicious tale, filled with culinary allusions. For example, there's:

  • • Lobster
  • • Soup
  • • Mushrooms
  • • Tarts

That's just to name a few. Perhaps the best known food and drink in all of children's literature are the 'DRINK ME' potion and 'EAT ME' cake that appear at the start of the book. You could recreate similar items as snacks for your guests. Except, at your party, the potions and cakes will delight the taste buds (rather than transforming your guests into grotesque shapes and sizes).

And who could possibly forget the Mad Hatter's tea party? Serving up tea for guests at your Alice in Wonderland party is an absolute must. If your party is being held on a particularly sweaty summer's day, however, you might use iced tea instead of the hot stuff.

There are way more Alice in Wonderland costumes than just Alice

Alice is just one of the wonderful characters in the wonderland universe. We also stock costumes for many of the others. For example, we have:

And many more. Caterpillar, anyone?

You're throwing your party on Halloween? Try a spooky Alice in Wonderland costume

A normal Alice costume is great for book week, or an Alice in Wonderland themed party. It's a wholesome reference to a beloved character. But what about events like Halloween? If you'd like a horror-themed Alice costume, we've got you covered. And if that particular costume doesn't do it for you, we've got two other torn and bloodied zombie-Alice style costumes as well.

Use decorations and activities to create Wonderland in your own backyard

Alice in Wonderland decorations

You don't need to go through a looking glass to get to Wonderland; with some creative decorations, and fun activities, you can build a Wonderland of your very own. For example, you might:

  • • Organise a game of pin the tail on the rabbit (or pin the hat on the Mad Hatter)
  • • Rent a giant chessboard
  • • Make a large papier-mâché Cheshire Cat, and then really wipe that smile off his face by using him as a piñata

Beware: Hookah — while iconic of the Wonderland universe when smoked by a caterpillar — is not likely to be deemed appropriate for a children's party.

Our team at Blossom Costumes are standing by to help you get ready for an Alice in Wonderland party. We have countless costumes on our online store, and are adding more all the time. O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!
