Game of Thrones Name Day Party

The premiere of the final season of Game of Thrones just so happened to fall on Scott’s Name Day—clearly, the gods were watching. Naturally, that called for an epic GoT-themed birthday bash, complete with a DIY Iron Throne fit for a true ruler of the Seven Kingdoms. Guests arrived ready to claim their place #ForTheThrone, but in the end, it seems Drogon swooped in and stole the spotlight. (Typical dragon.)

Iron Throne

I spent several months building the Iron Throne. Check out my Iron Throne build blog for instructions and detailed pictures.

Here’s the view from the Iron Throne.

The Crown

The crown was the first thing I made for the party. Utilizing an online image of Geoffrey’s crown, I created a graphic to cut out a foam crown with my Cricut Maker. I then hand painted it gold and added gems.

Costumes and Fight #ForTheThrone

Many fought for the throne (several Mothers of Dragons, Jon Snow, and Joffrey), but it looks like Drogon (Frito) claimed the Iron Throne.

Banners

I made house banners and a Name Day banner out of paper and vinyl with my Cricut. I bought the large Targaryen and Stark banners from Amazon and the Night’s Watch banner was gifted from a friend.

GoT Feast

The party feast consisted of many GoT themed and medieval treats. A few of the main items included:

  • The Hall of Faces cheesecake with drizzled strawberry or caramel sauce as the blood
  • Frey pie with a hotdog finger inside
  • Dragon deviled eggs
  • Greyjoy sausage special
  • Imp shrimp
  • Redwyne grapevine

House Goblets and Cocktails

To bring the realm to life, I crafted custom house goblets using my Cricut and vinyl—complete with original sigils and slogans for House Perdue and House Schatz. The results were worthy of a royal toast! I also mixed up a few custom Game of Thrones-inspired cocktails, the standout being the Ice Dragon—a chilling concoction served with a swirl of dry ice and dramatic plumes of smoke that would make even Viserion proud.
