Now, I don’t expect all of you to go punching holes and creating custom backdrops…after all, that’s why I’m here :). BUT, definitely let your imagination run wild and celebrate all that you’ve achieved as a parent in your child’s first year of life and of course their incredible milestones too.

For our daughter Logan’s first birthday, I decided to celebrate with a “Bubbles & Bones” theme which was inspired by a champagne barbecue themed event I had the pleasure of working on a decade before. The kids had tons of bubbles to pop with an automated bubble machine that ran most of the day and the parents popped bottles of bubbly :). After all, adults need bubbles too!

The “bones” was a cute homage to BBQ which was the theme of the menu and despite a downpour of rain all throughout the day, the kids had a blast and the parents survived and left with full bellies! 

Just remember, no matter how big or small, moments are meant to be shared & cherished so celebrate every chance you get! 

Cheers to the BIG One!This backdrop included handmade paper flowers from a local paper artist, pinwheels ordered online and DIY photo frames & banners made by me. I repurposed her name banner and her photos for her room. Don’t waste those DIY efforts!What’s a party without lots of desserts! These cupcake markers were handmade and if you look closely, those decorative balls were made with hundreds of paper flowers and pearl pins. Yes, I had a lot of time on my hands back then! Custom signs designed by the amazing Dwayne Jureidini (friend & super talented graphic artist) were placed at the different stations throughout the day. Every guest left with a goodie box filled with sweet treats, bubbles (of course), note pads and crayons for the kids. Every month of Logan’s first year was captured with a custom sticker and her monthly photos were used on the backdrop.

May we always be bubbly!
