The celebration came just days after the mom-to-be gave fans an exciting pregnancy update.
Alongside a photo of her and her husband holding up a sign reading "20 weeks,” Bindi noted that their baby girl is "about the same size as a recently hatched emu chick."
"Halfway there!" she captioned the picture. "💗 The love I have for my sweetheart husband and our beautiful daughter is boundless."
"We both sure love you too❤️," Powell commented. "I’m so excited for all of the adventures will have with our baby girl."
Irwin announced that she's expecting her first baby in August, four months after she and longtime love Powell tied the knot on March 25.
"Baby Wildlife Warrior due 2021," she captioned a photo at the time that showed herself smiling alongside Powell as they held a tiny Australia Zoo uniform fitted for the baby on the way. "Chandler and I are proud to announce that we're expecting! It's an honour to share this special moment in our lives with you."
