This beautiful celebration was in honor of a sweet christening. Sent to me by Era Uma Vez, Catarina and Ana are the design force behind this lovely day. After the ceremony, the guests were invited to join the family at a luncheon. The baby’s mother wanted areas for the adults and children to sit and enjoy the outdoors before and after lunch. Ana and Catarina set-up gorgeous spaces and added flowers and fun to the day…
As the guests arrived, they were invited to leave a message for the guest of honor. Catarina and Ana designed this beautiful, vintage space with a typewriter on display to use!
I love the little tags tied on the tree branch!
With inviting spaces outdoors to relax or play, the adults and children could enjoy casual conversation in the “lounge” areas set up for the guests!
While the adults visited with one another, the children had fun playing dress-up at the photo booth!
Next, guests were invited to enjoy a lovely, seated meal…
Guests were seated at a table set with lovely vintage pieces from the family~ and each guest had a place card in a cork at their seats…
And for dessert, cake pops were shared with everyone!
These ideas are so pretty for a lunch, and they are perfect birthday party ideas, too! Enjoy a lovely day for any type of celebrations with Catarina and Ana’s ideas for how to set up gorgeous spaces that guests can enjoy! Thank you for sharing such great party ideas with us! What a beautiful day!!

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!”.

CAMILLE’S FIESTA ~ MEXICAN THEME BIRTHDAY PARTY IDEAS
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!
