Disney magic comes to Baton Rouge with this Encanto-themed celebration

October 31, 2024

When it comes to kids, you can’t go wrong with a Disney-themed birthday party. Especially if they have that one movie or character that they can’t get enough of. And when it came time for Sunny Harden, owner of Jeaux Jumps, to plan her daughter Jordan’s fourth birthday party, it had to be Encanto-themed.

Harden included elements from the film, such as butterflies, flowers, enchantment and more. The party was filled with shades of blues, warm pinks, golden yellows, purples and a few neutral hues to make it feel like they were in the movie. “From the bounce house colors to the floral details on the table linens, it felt as if we’d recreated a scene from Encanto,” Harden says.

Extra flourishes like blooming tabletop bouquets, colorful photo backdrops and perfectly themed desserts only added to the magical celebration and worked to truly transport guests. For Harden and her family, these parties are the kind of fun they no longer take for granted in the wake of 2020 and the pandemic.

“I was planning my baby shower in March of 2020. We were so terrified to have any family or friends around us that we didn’t get to celebrate many milestones that people normally get,” Harden recalls. “Since we missed so many huge moments, we celebrate everything we can now. It doesn’t mean you have to take a second mortgage out to do it, but having those extra touches makes up for the things we didn’t get to do before.”
