Sweet Sixteen

An industrial space is transformed with modern decor, rich in textures and warm lighting for this all-white super sweet sixteen. Nilda Martin of Phi Design Group wanted her daughter’s special day to reflect her personality. Her team from Reserve Modern Event Rental set up lounge areas featuring modern white couches decorated with faux fur pillows and golden mercury glass vases varying in height which were illuminated by candles. The centerpiece of the event decor was an over-sized disco tile embellished lion, enhancing the already glam vibe. Youthful touches like a photo booth and a candy bar were highlights of this surprise party. “We wanted to create vignettes that would excite guests, reflect Zoë’s personal style, and create a dance party for kids and adults,” explained Nilda. “We layered textures, decorative lighting, and color to create a gorgeous white palette with pops of gold and mirrors that put everyone in the mood to celebrate.”

How cute are these garden party details from Ali and Garrett Wedding Photographers? Love that they wanted something timeless for their daughters first birthday and settled on this sweet, classic theme.  “We were looking for a baby friendly theme for our daughters first birthday party. We were looking at Dr. Seuss, Up, and a storybook theme, but then decided we didn’t want her miss out on a theme like those when she got older, so we decided to go with a secret garden theme. Lots of pink, moss, and garden themed desserts.”  Great idea!

This sweet party has everything a little girl could want, from frilly pom poms to flowers, a tea party complete with crowns, sweets and treats and other good things to eat, along with ballerinas and pinwheels! Thank you Belkis Hull of B. Hull Photography for submitting! And happy birthday Sophia!

This adorable camping themed baby shower comes to us from Kate Noelle Photography.  We just love how simple and sweet the details are and how its totally do-able whether at home or a fun venue like Mt. Hope Farm or Bittersweet Farm! 

From Kate Noelle: "This camping themed baby shower was a labor of love from her closest friends to celebrate the birth of her first born. The delicious foods displayed on wood cuttings and pine branches included homemade chili and corn bread, tossed salad, and homemade s'mores cupcakes. Floral arrangements included sprigs of pine, dandelions, and various naturally found mountain plants pulled together in camping canteens and pitchers. Activities included chatting around a campfire, writing wishes for the new baby, and making custom onesies for the new baby. A special addition of a mini camping tent housed all the wonderful gifts given to the new mother, and various buntings hung from the walls in celebration. As the cherished guests "hit the trail", they took along with them homemade granola in mason jars."
