The following dessert table is just stunning. The balloon garland that frames the dessert table is stunning. The floral arrangements and dainty blue tulle table skirt are beautiful.
Under the sea balloons
This blue and white balloon centerpiece is another great party décor. A foil balloon animal, such as a pink dolphin or a blue octopus, is on each one. A wonderful idea is to decorate each table with a different animal.
Clear balloons of various sizes, strung together with a long line and hanging from the ceiling, provide a fantastic underwater effect.
The amazing pastel balloon wall in pretty pink and purple tones is not to be missed if you love balloons. This birthday party is a dream when combined with other under the sea party decorations.

Table setting
Table sets are a fantastic way to show off your designing skills. The large sequin tablecloth, as well as the fauna and mermaid tail balloon decorations, are fantastic.
Having your mermaid party at the beach is a great idea. Set a low table with some attractive dishes and mugs with an under-the-sea motif. You’ll be fine if you use some cushioned chairs.
Remember to have some parasols on hand to keep everyone out of the sun.
Also lovely is the pretty pink mermaid table setting. The delicate pink color palette is wonderful. We really like the glass bottles with the donuts on top. The floral decorations and the shell centerpiece are both lovely.
Mermaid Party Cakes Ideas
The mermaid birthday cake is stunning and has been inspired by the blue sea.
The bottom ruffle layer and the top mermaid scale tier, with gold sea lions and a lovely pink mermaid, are particularly lovely. To end, two lovely starfish toppers are placed on top of this birthday cake.

It’s the ultimate mermaid cake, and it’ll be the center of attention at any dessert table.
There are three levels to it. A top tier inspired by the water, a middle tier inspired by mermaid tails, and a stunning gold sprinkling tier that looks like sand.
Cupcakes are also usually a treat. Take a look at these stunning examples, which appear to be pieces of art. Each is adorned with a mermaid tail and a swath of rainbow icing swirls.
The following cupcake is just stunning. Decorated with gorgeous swirly icing and sugar pearls and placed inside an open clamshell. It appears to be delicate.

Make a mini dress-up area at your party with the garments laid out so that everyone of your guests may choose their own outfit and pretend to be a mermaid for the day.
