Pink Lemonade 1st Birthday Party!

This is a review of my little girl’s first birthday.  It was a Pink Lemonade Birthday Party! Get ready for a picture-heavy post because there were just too many photos to choose from!

 

Pink Lemonade Party Invite

Isn’t this invite adorable? I can’t take any credit for it though;  this is the

creativity from Lemonade Design Studio.

 Pink Lemonade Party

Here is the sweet table.

 

Pink Lemonade Party Decorations

Outside I hung fluffy pink decorations with pink ribbon.

 

Pink Lemonade Banner

This banner came from Target’s Big Honkin’ Sumer promotion.

 

Pink Lemonade Cupcakes

Some of the cupcakes I made and some I bought and embellished.

 

Pink Lemonade Candy

Here is an up close picture of some of the candy.

 

 

Pink Lemonade Birthday Cake

I made the cakes myself but the gorgeous pennant banner is from

the etsy shop, AFeteBeckons.

 

Pink Lemonade Smash Cake

This is my daughter’s “smash cake” on top of a cake stand I made myself.

 

Pink Lemonade Party Food

Here’s a picture of the full spread.  We also had grilled hamburgers with all the fixings.  Our lemonade was from Chick-fil-A and we had fun pink twisty straws for the kids.

 

 

Pink Lemonade Birthday Girl

This is my sweet birthday girl! Her outfit came from Gymboree.  I couldn’t find the perfect pink lemonade outfit so I bought a lemonade outfit for the first half of the party and a pink outfit for after her smash cake.  She didn’t love her cake so while it was nice that there was no mess to clean up I was sad that we didn’t get to debut her second outfit either.

 

 

Pink Lemonade Smash Cake Crying

This is her after everyone sang to her and her Daddy tried to help feed her some.

She would have none of it.

 

Pink Lemonade Cake Layers

Last but not least we cut the cake!  There is a lemon layer between two pink lemonade layers and it’s topped with pink lemonade icing.

 

WOW. What a party it was! I love throwing a party that makes little kids’ eyes light up with wonder and amazement. And of course, maybe a few grownups too. Because as you know, pink lemonade is all about fun, pure goodness, and never taking life too seriously.  My little girl was thrilled to pieces, besides the cake incident,  and that’s what it was all about. Thank you to EVERYBODY who came and made this day such a success! We love you!

    What a GORGEOUS party! I can tell you worked super, super hard- it was so worth it!

    • I had been planning it for months and gathering supplies on sale as I went so it wasn’t too hard to put everything together at the end. Thank you; I’m glad you liked it! : )

  7. HOW beautiful! I especially love the rosettes on the cakes! What a great theme i have never seen that one for a baby before – LOVE IT!

    • Thank you! The little rosettes were SO easy. It was probably the fastest cake I’ve ever decorated. Maybe I should do a tutorial sometime?

  8. You did an amazing job! I love all the pink colored candy/food.

    Okay, first of all – GIRL! I seriously gasped when I saw your table – I thought you were going to say that was your inspiration. IT’S SO BEAUTIFUL! Those cakes are amazing, the decorations – and especially, your sweet little one year old. In a few years, you’ll laugh that she didn’t want any cake together. She’s gorgeous, and happy birthday!!

  12. Wow! Beautifully done and the pictures look amazing!

    That party is so beautiful – it looks like it was straight out of a magazine! My daughter refused to eat any of her cake at her first birthday too. The next day when it was just us she loved munching on a cupcake that was leftover though!

  16. Michelle Horns says

    WOW! You did an awesome job! You should do this for a living (assuming you don’t already) Your daughter is adorable! That cake is out of this world! How creative!
