Father’s Day Golf PAR-TEE
Today I’m getting back to the blog after being in Florida for a (long) weekend of helping set-up for an Operation Shower event + spend LOTS of fun times with some great party girls. The theme was a golf theme – Party FORE Baby – as it was given in conjunction with the PGA tour and Birdies for the Brave. So when I received this Golf Themed party in my ‘IN’ box this morning, I knew I had to share it right away; you know…the irony of it all!
This design by Jen of Banner Events was done specifically for Father’s Day, but I think these ideas would be super for Men’s Birthday’s, Baby Showers, and of course boy’s birthday parties, too. Check out the amazing details for 3 different party areas: seated table, dessert display on an open shelf, and drinks. You’ll be smitten by it all!
From Jen: “To create our look, we covered an executive-style office desk with an earth toned tablecloth, added a ‘putting green’ runner (Astroturf from a home improvement store works great!), some burlap for the sand trap, a few containers of artificial grass & the basics were covered for one tee-riffic party! Of course, Bird’s Golf themed party printables help to tie in the theme, add a pop of color, and bring extra pizzazz that make celebrations go from ordinary to extraordinary. From the adorable par-tee banner to the coordinating drink wraps & circle labels, it was the ‘par’fect touch!”
- To add some interest to our par-tee, I filled jars and containers with artificial grass balls, color coordinating golf tees, plastic practice golf balls, etc.
- If you’re dad is an avid golfer, finding old golf paraphernalia around your home shouldn’t be hard. I used a pair of golf shoes, a golf statue, some old golf clubs and an old trophy to bring in some personal items to our display.
- Old rustic silver pails, glass apothecary jars & vessels were all used to house coordinating themed treats & decor.
- Golf silhouettes and printable subway art were hung in picture frames on the wall to coordinate.
- Jones Soda bottles and water bottles were accented with drink wraps, cute party straws, golf tees & mini golf pennant flags.
- Darling cupcakes with grass-like frosting were perched atop Styrofoam covered in Astroturf.
- The cutest putting green & golf ball cake pops were nestled in spray painted plastic trophies purchased at the dollar store & an old metal pail filled with green shred to resemble grass.
-
No celebration is complete without an array of coordinating sweet treats. The highlight of our dessert buffet, included a beautiful cake where gorgeous details from the printables were recreated, from the striking argyle pattern, to the golf landscape & oversized golf ball and tee.
-
Incredibly detailed fondant pieces were masterfully designed by Edible Details.
-
Three dimensional golf clubs accessorized our peanut ‘putter’ parfaits ‘par’-fectly!
-
I adore the 3-D golf balls, that sat impressively atop real golf tees in the centers of gourmet cupcakes made to resemble patches of grass. And, the golf cart fondant toppers were phenomenal!
-
Cookies Are My Canvas captured the beauty of Bird’s printables on a cookie!
-
Sweet Temptations also provided delicious golf-themed chocolate covered Oreos, great for everyone celebrating Dad”
Jen cleverly incorporated some specialty dessert items for a stunning look. The complete list of credits is below, but if you need to follow a budget you can choose 1 to 3 items to help pull off the look. You will still get great results and wow your guests.
Here are some more ideas from Jen, to add a play on words to your food for a golf themed party: A “full course” menu could include items such as “club” sandwiches, a “wedge” salad, “greens”, “chips” & dip and “water hazard” bottles of water.

I have been browsing online more than 3 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours.
It’s pretty worth enough for me. Personally, if all web owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the web will be a lot more useful than ever before.
I’m speechless. Just loved it.
I just love all of the details of this! What a great party!!
Definitivamente tus Creaciones son Super Maravillosas!
Yeah, the father day is coming and I really want to do something for him. This golf party really inspired me!
My dad loves golf and so many of these elements would be perfect for party. I love the play on words with the food and the blue and green are a great colour combination.
What a fun way to incorporate what dad likes to do in to a party for him on Father’s Day! Looks great! -Dani
I’m speechless. Just loved it.
