Carnival Creations put the “magic” into this Magical Unicorn First Birthday Party, using delightful colors and a perfect venue to create a world of wonder for a very special kid.

A lovely sunny day ensured that this party could be held outdoors with ease. A fun sign was made with the little diva’s name on it letting everyone know she was turning one. It was set on a stand too, making it simple to see. The artwork on the board was very lovely with a unicorn and rainbow in adorable pastel tones.

A long table was arranged with the desserts, it had a white cover on the top to allow all the bright theme colors to stand out remarkably. The table was wrapped in pink tulle, giving a cute effect. An archway was designed from purple, pink and blue balloons, standing over the back of the table to draw attention stylishly. At the center of the table massive letters spelling, “one,” made a fantastic focal point in shimmering gold.

The treats were spread smoothly throughout the table, allowing everything to be easily viewed. With varying heights of stands to display the food, the table had an even fuller and artful look.

With a wonderful array of snacks to choose from like donuts with rainbow sprinkles, the kids were certain to satisfy their sweet tooth. Cake pops detailed to look like little unicorns made a cute treat option. Cupcakes were frosted in pink and white and were then topped with ice cream cones to give a spilled ice cream cone look. There were even delicious looking iced cookies to enjoy. The cake for this special day was an elegant wonder, frosted in white and designed to look like the face of a unicorn, horn, ears and eyes in shimmering gold.

This delightful Winter Woodland Birthday celebration was charmingly created by Molly of A Day in Mollywood. When it was time for her little one’s first birthday, she came up with this innovative and cost friendly theme to celebrate her child perfectly.

The wintry theme was smoothly executed with the incorporation of all sorts of green and white elements, bringing the outdoors in. The venue was a home, allowing for a wide range of area to be beautifully decorated.  In the kitchen, an island made a perfect buffet space and was brilliantly designed to look fantastic while making the snacks simple to reach.  A white cover gave a snowy effect, setting a great stage for the green decor.

Each of the treats had a cute name to make them unique with a fun chalkboard style tag.  Celery and carrot sticks were called deer food, pretzels were called fallen branches and sandwich rollups were called sandwich snails. The sandwich roll ups were perfectly rolled and set with two toothpicks, making it an easy snack to munch on.  They were even set on a rectangular tray, giving a contemporary look to the buffet.

For sweets a kids favorite, chocolate pudding, was offered in jello cups set beside an adorable rabbit and mini tree. White donut holes called snowballs were placed on a large white plate and of course no party is complete without a tray of delicious cupcakes to go with the birthday cake!! This cake was fantastically created right from Molly’s kitchen, making it a unique and delicious treat for the guests to enjoy.

With a variety of other special touches like garland and white trees on the mantle above the fireplace, this venue showcased the theme in a cozy fashion.  There was even a photo shelf with adorable pictures so everyone could see how the vip was growing up!

How easy it can be to celebrate a special day with a Winter One-derland Birthday Party Theme!  Using soft blue shades with white to set the tone, the venue had a cozy and warm look.  Meredith from Unoriginal Mom Living an Inspired Life used her eye for detail to create a beautiful moment for her sweet one year old’s special day.

Invitations made for the party were adorable with a blend of varying fonts accented with a fantastic patterned background.  In the theme tones, this invite was a stunning welcome to the party.

A lovely idea used at this event was a mantle over the fireplace being used to display cute photos of the little one’s first year of life.  With an assortment of neat frames, this section stood out beautifully.   A backdrop was made with a vintage window that had a banner saying, “Happy Birthday David,” on it.  At the front of the mantle a strand of snowflakes and number ones hung delightfully, showcasing this wintry theme sweetly.

Taking advantage of a lovely chandelier, snowflakes in all sorts of sizes and patterns were hung to give dimension to the decor. A neat white tree stood solitary on a table with snowflakes too.

The snacks included a wide variety of options from healthy to decadent, ensuring that everyone could find a tasty choice.  Each treat had a cute name on a fantastic snowflake label.  Carrots were called snowman noses and white donut holes were named snowballs.  

One favorite decoration were blue mason jars that were filled with epsom salt and small candles, they providing lighting while giving a snowy effect.

To really embrace this wintry vibe, a hot chocolate bar was set up for everyone to keep warm and toasty in tasty fashion. There was a whole range of items to add to personalize this classic beverage included various flavors of chocolate chips.

Maryam’s Cakery went all out to spoil their own very special little one turning five years old with this Purple And White Sophia Birthday Party! With a lovely mix of florals and fabrics, this event had an elegant appeal that made it lovely for all ages.

The event was held indoors with neutrally toned walls, ensuring that decorating would be lovely.  The dessert buffet was set against a wall with a shimmering fabric draped curtain style to draw the eye.  In the center a lovely framed image of Sophia the First was hung, displaying the theme beautifully.  

A white cover with fantastic texturing was draped perfectly on the dessert table.  Two large vases held perfectly cut bouquets of purple and white blooms.  There were even jewels hanging from them, giving an elegant touch. The treats were stunning in purple and white tones that matched the theme beautifully. White trays held adorable little treats up front that were actually decorated with cute, silver mini crowns.  Sophia labelled lollipops made a cute addition to the sides of the table set in purple candies for a fun look.  At the back cake pops with crowns and bows stood on each side of the spectacular layered cake.  This cake was decorated to resemble Sophia’s dress and was topped with a fantastic crown. Other tasty additions to the table included chocolate bars wrapped in purple too.

An adorable rectangular table was set up for the little guests to sit at.  It also had a white cover, blending smoothly with the other decor. Each chair was wrapped in a sheer purple ribbon. On the table cute little cardboard candelabras in white made perfect centerpieces.  The place settings were kid friendly in cardboard with Sophia printed on the napkins, plates and cups. Little bottles of water ensured that no kid would be thirsty.

A first birthday party is a milestone in a child’s—and parent’s life—so what better way to celebrate than with a sweet, themed event? Simply Sera Events, photographed by Alissa Noelle Photography put together an incredible first birthday party in the motif of lovely floral design with a clean, shabby chic flair. Simplicity mixed with a crisp palate of colors really made this event something truly special and unforgettable.

While the décor was simple, attention to detail was absolutely perfection. Treats were aplenty, with dozens of delectable doughnuts stacked high on gleaming white and crystal pink serving towers. Menus for food were in ash gray frames, with a pretty gold font used throughout for all the signage at the party. White linen tablecloths and corresponding centerpieces of pastel-hued florals arranged in brass vases were a posh pop amongst all the delicious food and drink. The cake table itself was an old, repurposed ivory dresser, and behind it was the perfect backdrop of a shiplap wall. Gold and white roping and miniature wooden pallets made for great serving and accenting décor pieces, while small glass jars in different shapes were fantastic subtle additions for singular bright colored poppy flowers. Wall hangings adorned with simplistic greenery quoted in cursive gold letters sayings like, “With grace in your heart and flowers in your hair” were really spectacular in adding an overall whimsical feeling to the event, too.

Rustic silver pots with little bouquets of flowers were carefully pinned up along the back wall of a serving table, and an activity in which guests got to participate in creating flower crowns was a wonderful and unique idea that served both as something memorable and as a takeaway favor from the party. All in all, this event was streamlined into a crisp melody of colors and aesthetics, which made for a happy, bright atmosphere to celebrate.
