Pretty in Pink, II
I am totally jumping the wedding ship for a few hours to share with you my favorite party ever…my daughter’s first birthday! The only reason that I feel like this is totally allowed is that SO many of the details were inspired by past weddings and events we’ve featured here on SMP. So, without further ado, here is the prettiness in full effect!
the pretty, pretty photographs are by Studio Foto (who I heart big time)
The “theme” (and I use that word really lightly, because I am not big on themes) was Pretty in Pink! We held the party at my in-law’s house so that we could take full advantage of their gorgeous backyard. I had pink balls of every shape and size, HUGE pink balloons, a tin filled with pink water baloons, pink paper poms in every shade and pink lemonade cocktails for the kids to enjoy.

Inside, we decorated with massive pink balloons, cupcakes that took center stage on the table, a GORGEOUS bunting from Daisy and Dots on Etsy and favors for the kiddos…customized bubble tins and bags of homemade chocolate chip cookies. A little later today, Jenn, over at the Hostess Blog is doing a DIY on the bubble favors and is including a template that you can print out at home.

yes! I hope you keep posting more! I think the 1st birthday is for the parents also....you survived the first year of parenthood, right?
Yay! Audrey is one! Hard to believe it. You did a fantastic job with the party Abby. I had my doubts about the water balloons(!). The squishy cupcake shot is priceless.
I just have to comment. Again. I'm at work, but I keep checking back for more pics. I love your blog because I can "steal" ideas that are non-wedding. Can you recommend your favorite sites or blogs for children's parties?
Not only is the party and every single detail amazing, but you are clearly amazing for being able to pull it off with a 1 year old in the house! Congrats, love the blog. Happy birthday Audrey!
With a baby on the way in about 20 days this is exactly what I wanted to peek at today. Thanks for sharing!
can you imagine what Audrey's wedding is gonna look like?!
That's a dream birthday party every little girl wishes for. Sweet Pink Goodness. I love all the extra little touches too. So creative.
This is absolutely gorgeous!!!! The attention to detail is amazing! I came across this in a web search as my 12 year daughter has wanted a pretty in pink party for her next birthday! Such a cute and fabulous theme - it can cover any age or event. Any thoughts or ideas on adapting this theme to a teen party? You did a wonderful job on your daughter's party - I know you all will treasure the memories forever.
You had a GOAT at the party! I'm obsessed with them....the rest of the party was darling, too, of course but a goat just put it over the top! :-)
Too cute! I love the smashing of the cupcake. Priceless! Congrats on your beautiful girls 1st bday!
AMAZING ... Happy Birthday Audrey!!!!
Amazing birthday party for a cute little lady! Everything looks perfect! Balloons and those gorgeous rose cupcakes...And I love the photos! Like magazine photos :)
Happy birthday to your daughter!
So cute!!!! Just wondering, where did you buy that cute little domed stand for the single cupcake?
Hey Clarissa! The dome is from Pottery Barn:)
Your daughter is sooo precious! I LOVE all the pink pretty details....heaven!
Hi Abby!
Just wanted to let you know that I come to your website for my daughter Audrey's first birthday ideas too! I was so excited to see your Audrey's birthday! Planning ours for January~ can't wait to use some of your ideas :D Love the cupcakes!
Abby - Any ideas on how to transfer this party theme to one for a girl turning 13? She loves the Pretty in Pink theme but has outgrown petting zoos, etc. I would LOVE your thoughts on this! Thanks!!!!
What invitations did you use for the party? Did you make them yourself or did you get them from a website? Do you have a picture?
Gorgeous party!

I was wodnering where you found those tubs for the balloons? Also I was wodneriung if you could give any advice regarding the bubble favor, the pipes are not making bubbles as the solution sticks to it :(
This is awesome inspiration - currently planning my daughter's 1st birthday (this summer). Can I ask where you got the tins for the bubbles? Fab idea!!
hello,
I'm from Brazil and I saw this customized bubble tins and I felt in love. I have a trip to USA in the end of december and I'd like to know where can I find it, please. It's for my wedding next year.
Thanks
