Would she be into renting a limo with a few of her friends and driving around town? We did that for our son’s birthday this year and although he’s a bit younger (just turned 8), it was a big hit with the kids and grownups too. They had a package where you would make specific stops and could get ice cream or cupcakes. (We chose to bring our own food on board.) We also stayed in a hotel that let us rent out the pool just for us.
Or, could you reach out to one of the animal options on Cameo and see if they could create something custom with bearded dragons?

I forgot to add that the biggest complicating factor is that we realized on Monday of this week that the only possible day we had to do this party before the last weekend of Oct. was this Saturday.

lol. I can relate.
DD wrote me a three page letter last fall when's he turned 10 explaining why she absolutely needed a hamster. We went with guinea pigs (mostly because they don't bite and live longer than hamsters). She has been over the moon ever since. Every instruction starts with "Please put down the guinea pig because it's time to..."
