The Sweetest Occasion

Lately I have been finding myself endlessly inspired by beautiful birthday parties, and this pretty vintage puppy themed birthday party photographed by Jeremy Harwell is no exception. Jeremy’s wife planned and designed the party in celebration of their daughter Kitty’s eighth birthday and I absolutely adore all of the handmade vintage-inspired elements. As a dog [...]

My oh my. I am so excited to share Tova’s owl-themed first birthday party with you, because it’s far and away the prettiest party I’ve seen in a long time. All of the details were thoughtfully pulled together from the owl pinata to the world’s cutest cake topper, from the peachy pink color palette to [...]

I am popping in quickly this morning to share some photos from last night’s Oscars party, as promised last week. I will, however, be taking a short break from blogging this week, at least for a few days. Something happened over the weekend that has completely rocked me to my core, made me think long [...]

I’m excited to have another cute birthday party to share with you today – this one is a yellow bumble bee themed first birthday party and all the little details are just so cute!

I really can’t think of a better excuse to plan a fabulous party than to celebrate a loved one’s birthday, be that loved one small or all grown up. Today’s birthday party was held for the small loved one variety – a joint [...]

I think at some point in the lives of most little girls, they dream about being a pretty ballerina, dancing about in skirts made from layers of tulle. Or a figure skater. For me, it was both. And I was also going to be an Olympic gold medalist gymnast. (We can see how well that [...]

This nautical theme first birthday party has me literally hopping up and down with excitement and searching for any excuse I can find to throw an adorable party. (A note to all of my friends – I would love for you to have lots of babies so I can plan fabulous birthday parties, ok?) This [...]

Seeing Erica’s call for ideas via Twitter this weekend, I thought of this anniversary party [...]
