PARTY
When Desiree Fortin reached out to me to help her celebrate her triplets’ birthday last year, I was so excited to be a part of it! Desiree Fortin has a blog called The Perfect Mom Blog, it’s all about authentic motherhood and how the perfect mom doesn’t exist. She’s the sweetest thing and I’ve loved being part of her parties. I didn’t get around to sharing all her fun party details last year, so here it goes — drum roll because she did a fantastic job making the triplets’ party not only adorable but so unique!
It’s the cutest way to celebrate a baby’s first birthday, a celebration of a milestone, baby’s very 1st year, 365 days of baby being here! Often it also celebrates babies very first piece of cake too. A smash cake is a fun way to document the milestone birthday of a baby turning one by taking photos of the birthday boy or girl with a birthday cake.
Nothing says summer like a lemon or lemonade birthday party! Styling this party was beyond fun with all the happy yellow and pops of pink. Plus, can we talk about that pink script party balloon and those lemon shaped fruit balloons, both of which totally made this lemon-inspired party come together so nicely! I love when I’m styling a party and things just click into place and the decor tells the story of the theme so beautifully.
Both my boys have birthdays in January (five days apart from one another) so we usually opt for one big birthday party to save my sanity after celebrating the holidays. Choosing a theme this year was a lot more challenging since my littlest guy, Aiden, wanted a race car birthday party and Dylan, my oldest, wanted a police party theme, so my work was all about blending these two party themes to create a cohesive party.
Jump on the donut wall trend with this easy and fun DIY donut wall tutorial! For my boys’ race car and police birthday party I created a concessions snack stand and donuts were the main show. I mean how could they not be, everyone loves donuts! It was one of my favorite elements of the party design. When styling events you want your designs and decor to be fun and invite your guests in to party, what better conveys, “Come on over, and join the party,” than a donut wall.
Take your party up a notch by using balloons as your party backdrop and tell the story of your theme! Balloons are the quintessential party decor, showcase your party theme by making a creative backdrop using Mylar foil balloons. No helium, no problem! A big part of event planning is finding ways to make the day of your event easier, so eliminating one extra trip to the party store on the day of to get helium is a win-win in my book.
