Royal Coronation Party Planning Tips
Plan early with Party Invitations
With four days of Bank Holiday fun for all, many people will be booking in lots of days out and activities, so it’s best to get invites out to your Royal Street Party quickly!
Why not let your little one get involved in creating the party invites with you?
You can take inspiration from these printable Street party invitations to colour, via the link above or click the picture.
Pick Your Royal Party Clothes
You could go with royal fancy dress for the King Charles II Coronation – a truly special occasion – encourage everyone to come in themed fancy dress with tiaras and crowns.
Or go for the simple theme of red, white & blue clothing. Another great colour scheme is dark purple, for the royal family.
Divide and Conquer For Organisation
Whether it’s a street party or a family gathering, share the load, and give those willing to get involved specific tasks or roles on the day. This could be making street food, printing out the British flag colouring pages for the kids or royal party decoration planning, the more involved you can get people in the event, the more invested they’ll be in it!
Royal Party Food
Food is always a good way to bring people together, and cakes are a universal crowd pleaser.
