On the 2nd of September my sister will be turning 21, so I decided to plan her a really pretty party. We had to do it a few days earlier so that some of our family and her friends could come down.
I was inspired by my sisters Pinterest board she had created which was all about parties and I tried to incorporate as many of these photos into one party without her knowing. Some of the main inspiring images are below.
In the end I went for a pink lemonade theme, so lots of pink, yellow and pretty cute things.
The decorations were mostly from from Party Delights and Amazon but a few were also from IKEA and local stores.
I'd made a whole load of bunting for her 18th birthday which we reused along side some bunting that said 'Time to drink champagne and dance on the table' across our back doors.
I put together a little ice cream station where you could pick your choice of toppings in cute little tubs and we had cocktails in milk bottles which had our names on little stick-on chalk boards.
I attempted cake pops for the first time which actually went quite well, not perfectly but better than expected. The cupcakes were made by The Cupcake Fairy and the cake was made by Marie Green who are from the Worcestershire area if you want them to make anything for your own party. We did also have savoury food which was pretty much all from M&S in their made to order service.
Overall, it was a great success and my sister was very happy, as well as the guests. What's great about most the decorations is that we can use them again! They'll probably be used for my own 21st!
I'll be popping some of these images on my Pinterest if you want to pin them for some inspiration.

DeleteThis is perfect for anybody her age. I would die with happiness if this was my birthday party at any age. The colors that you have used for the decoration is mind-blowing. It is very soothing and I think I am also going decorate one of the venues in NYC for my sister’s birthday like this.
