Just days after Poppy turned one year old, we celebrated this milestone birthday with some of our closest family and friends. We moved into our new house just two weeks beforehand, which made the days leading up to the party feel absolutely nuts, ha! But everything went smoothly (except the rainy, freezing weather!), and the girls all had the best time. I rented a soft play package which came with a ball pit and other little toddler play toys – it was such a hit. Poppy loved it and spent most of the time there. With this said, the cake was definitely the highlight of Poppy’s day. That girl crushed it – I was impressed!
We call Poppy ‘Popstar’ most of the time, so doing a star theme party just felt right! Then came the idea of star pop-its, which felt even more right, ha. Since we only invited a handful of people, I was able to hand deliver rainbow pastel star pop-its in custom star bubble mailers – so extra, but we had fun in the process! One of my best friends, Monica, designed the invitations. I love them so much! I knew that I didn’t want a black and gold star party – and I’m so ready for Easter by the time January and February roll around, that a pastel rainbow color scheme was our one and only choice. I have linked all of the party items below! It was not my most over-the-top party, but it was probably the most fun one. The first guests arrived at 11am and the last left at 8:30pm. That is my kind of party! We truly did ‘party like popstars!’ I’ve shared lots of photos below!
