I think the world of Loralee Lewis, her manager, Wayne, and the party magic they create–and so I was thrilled when they shared this absolutely precious party with me! Loralee planned the party for her nephew’s 1st birthday- I love the idea of a birthday breakfast for a first birthday celebration! Take a look at all of the ANIMALS ON PARADE! The table was set up to mimic the invitation…
Party hats for everyone~they look so great with rosettes and labels by Loralee!
The breakfast foods were kept kid-friendly and were perfectly displayed~
The vibrant backdrop of balloons is so cute and colorful against the wooden letters and the sweet white cake!
The amazing little cut out animals are by one of Loralee’s favorite’s, Rhino Design Lab . She even had a cut out hedgehog dangling from a balloon to match the invitation! I love those kinds of details!
The party favors were adorable pails with customized labels and tags by Loralee~
Isn’t the Birthday Boy a doll?
HOORAY for MAX and his fabulous first birthday celebration!
Here is the invitation~ it is double-sided so that you can add a first year timeline!
Precious!
Thank you for sharing your nephew’s party, Loralee! Your sister’s idea for an animal parade is such a great one for a first birthday!

LILLY PULITZER CAKE DECORATING FLAMINGO BIRTHDAY PARTY IDEAS
There is nothing like the bright colors and happy prints of Lilly Pulitzer to make every day feel like a party! For my daughter’s 12th birthday party, she wanted to decorate cakes~ Lilly-style! So, in order to decide how to mesh the two, I kept thinking “if Lilly had a cake shop instead of a juice stand”… I have to admit, this was one fun party to plan! It is a blast to see where ideas go in the hands of a TWEEN! Enjoy and remember, “…being happy never goes out of style!”.

Celebrating your birthday with a Mexican Fiesta is a sure way to have a great time! My daughter and several of her friends had a ball with all of the bright colors and (hopefully) vivid memories of a beautiful party day full of fun! Planning all of the party ideas and details was loads of fun- although we don’t claim to have everything authentically perfect- this is our take on a party that combines Mexican birthday party ideas with a young girl’s likes and wishes! For instance, we know hedgehogs don’t hail from Mexico- but when she fell in love with a festive-looking hedgehog at a local shop, we decided the hedgehog would make a perfectly fun party favor! So read on and enjoy- and hopefully you will find an idea or two that you can use for a Mexican-themed party or even a Cinco de Mayo celebration, too- and inspiration to incorporate ideas that make your party perfectly-suited for the birthday child!
LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE PARTY
What began as a simple gesture to introduce my daughter to a wonderful book series has become a special evening ritual for us- reading Laura Ingalls Wilder’s Little House books! I must admit, I didn’t realize quite how interesting these books would be to her, but she cannot wait to read all nine in the series. It was only fitting that her birthday party focus around Little House on the Prairie! Together, we had a ball planning all of the details of her party that related to the books in some way. At Camille’s request, we focused on some of her favorite parts of the stories… prairie flowers, covered wagons, tee pees, the colors in the drawings of the books, and “pretty”…because “Ma” liked things to be pretty!
