Party Feature: Magical unicorn party

There’s nothing quite as enchanting as a magical Unicorn Party and we have an amazing one to share with you today by one of our members!

This gorgeous collaboration shoot involved some amazing vendors including Glamacamp. Lisa from Glamacamp shares all the details with us today: “We are all involved in creating spectacular events for special occasions. It was so lovely to get together to create this gorgeous children’s package. The ideas and inspiration conceived from an inspirational post put out by “Your Mane Event” on Instagram. I was sure with the immense talent of people involved we could create a fanciful package that the kids would adore.

As the children arrived, they were greeted with the spectacular sight of the set-up. The tent with the golden unicorn head emerged from the natural wildness of the bush in our backyard. “The Frame” photography led the girls in a fanciful direction, guiding them through the adventure, capturing their reactions along the way.

I wanted the shoot to be as close to a real party as possible. The invitation was sent out, specially personalised to the guest. I asked the girls to be in their own choice of special dress, to come as they would to a party to celebrate. No special effort was required, no make-up, no hair, just the natural raw beauty of the children experiencing the magical set up for the first time.

“This is what dreams are made of” the parents said as the children rushed forward to meet our star of the show “Cherry” the Unicorn from the Sunshine Coasts premier horse modelling agency “Your Mane Event.” She emerged elegantly crowned and adorned in fresh cut flowers specially made for her that morning by Rambling Rose Cooroy.

As a backdrop Glamacamp’s slumber tent opened up exposing the 5 luxury beds. All with comfy spring mattress and cloud like tops. Sleeping under the stars in a Glamacamp bell tent is a truly memorable experience for any child. Beautiful pink and golden starred bed linen sparkled in the afternoon sun. Calling for any child to jump on and test it out which they did. Extra cushions, blankets and rugs, each bed with a little side table and lantern. Draped organza sheer and pretty waved blissfully in the breeze with the hanging festoons. Country style floral arrangements soft pinks, peonies, roses, lisianthus, gerberas for inside and out. The love of floristry evident in each vase from Rambling Rose Cooroy. There was the addition of scattered planters and my prize standard hibiscus that had decided on the day to close all its flowers but one. It’s a small but none the less, an impressive and very intimate setting to be enjoyed with only the closest of friends and buddies.

The package is styled to create a glamorous exploratory playground for the children to enjoy. Furnished with luxury details that are for a celebration to remember. Our Glamacamp style has an adventurous spirit, layered with textures and fabrics in soft colours for a magical experience. Peachy pinks and cotton candy with detailed highlights in brass and gold. .

The picnic table was set up on a gorgeous vintage aqua Turkish rug. The solid wooden French country style table with large marshmallow cushions as seats. Vintage English fine bone china laid on an antique French country kitchen table cloth. The napkins held with childhood memories for me, wrapped with the edible necklaces I can remember enjoying as a kid. Personalised name tags for each place setting designed together with invitations, thank you, food tags and signage as part of the signature stationary set for the package

Delicious sweet treats for all the children to enjoy. Unicorn biscuits, Unicorn donuts and that Magical Unicorn cake front and centre in the middle of the table, all created by the fabulous SweetP Cakes and Cookies. A true visionary delight that you would say are almost too good to eat.

I asked Journey Street food to create a presentation delight as adventurous as our own set ups. An exotic, fresh and healthy 3 tier tower of creative yumminess to be shared by all. Fruit skewers, cheeses, crackers, dips, rice paper rolls with decorative edible flowers, bliss balls, with a few extra little treats.

The children’s celebration was captured by one of the best.  The photographer from “The Frame” worked her own magic with the children, they were as fascinated as captivated.

Unicorn party supplies & inspiration!

It was THE most popular kids party theme of 2017 and I haven’t seen any decline in love for a unicorn party even as we have hit 2018 so I knew it was time to do an updated round up of some enchanting unicorn party finds for you all!

Now this blog post could have gone on…forever! So I’ve just had to curate a selection so please do click over to browse the various businesses below as on their websites you will often find more items for a unicorn party to match with what I’ve featured here!

Oh but before I share the gorgeous finds….a quick reminder if you’re a small business owner that you’re invited to the Celebrate conference day and you can find out all about it here!

Now let’s get started with some inspiration sharing these gorgeous unicorn kids parties:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Unicorn Party Invitations

What’s better than a dream filled with unicorn magic? A dream with all your friends of course!

Invitations with illustrations of unicorns in any colour you choose, personalised with the names of all your friends make a beautiful choice for this party theme. Dream in water colour, pastels, rainbows and gold – a unicorn’s favourite colours!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Unicorn Party Decorations

So what does the land of unicorns look like in your dream?

White makes a great base to any colour palette you choose, then it’s simply a matter of adding LOTS of unicorns and colour accents to complete your dream. Lucky for you we know where to find all these and more!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A unicorn party is the perfect excuse to have fun with decorations and we love these colourful setups with balloons and honeycomb balls:

 

 

Unicorn Party Tableware

Continue your colour palette to the unicorn party table where the prettiest of tea parties can be had, sitting amongst the clouds with the unicorns and your friends.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Unicorn Party Desserts and Bakeware

Rumor has it that the unicorns’ preferred food of choice is cake. So won’t they be flattered with a buffet of sweet treats dedicated entirely to them?

and we can’t finish the blog post without sharing THE amazing hand-made unicorn headbands from Arabella’s  Vintage wardrobe. These are truly divine and come in a range of designs or they can be custom made!

 

An enchanting unicorn theme has to be one of our favourites! Sweet dreams.

 

 

Unicorn Kids Party Feature

There’s no doubt that the most loved kids party theme of 2017 (and still so popular heading into 2018!) is a Unicorn party theme.

It was this theme that was the inspiration behind our Life’s Little Celebrations collaboration photoshoot put together especially for the launch issue of Confetti Fair magazine.

This shoot was styled and coordinated beautifully by Saffy & May in Brisbane who coordinated and sourced items from Life’s Little Celebration members to put together the most prettiest of settings in pastels with a touch of gold!

The tulle tablecloths used throughout created such a dreamy feel and the balloon arch (another popular party item lately!) added stunning pops of colour along with the gorgeous backdrop and fun unicorn pinata!

The desserts surounding the gorgeous unicorn cake included vanilla and strawberry mousse, donuts, cupcakes and cookies.

The sweet children’s table decor included mini balloon pops and adorable star and cloud rainbow wands. At each place setting was a unicorn themed cookie mix bottle and each chair was adorned with unicorn hats and pastel tassels.

Unicorn themed partyware was used with stunning unicorn plates and napkins mixed with gold plates and ombre pink and gold cups.

In addition to the dreamy unicorn favour boxes and wands each guest took home a beautiful unicorn crown headband!

This setup truly showcases the quality and variety of items you can find from members of Life’s Little Celebrations and I credit Saffy and May for pulling it all together perfectly!

Sleepy Unicorn party

One of the biggest kids party trends over the last year has been the Unicorn party theme – so it was a must have party inclusion in the first issue of “Celebrating Little Ones” magazine!

Perfectly Sweet came up with the bright vision for this Sleepy Unicorn birthday party and collaborated with a range of vendors from the LLC Children’ party directory to put together this gorgeous setup for the magazine beautifully photographed by Rachel Richter Photography.

It started with the amazing invitation by Eve and Co:

 

 

Which then came alive in this amazing setup:

 

This cake by Velvetier (who also created all the desserts) is a stand out – with this theme being hugely popular and sleepy unicorn cakes flooding Instagram, this unique take on this theme blew me away!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The balloons and partyware from Favor Lane added a wow factor and stylish touch with the gorgeous rose gold balloons and tableware mixed in with the bright decorations:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What cuter favour boxes could there be for a Sleepy Unicorn party than these by Glitter and Glue Designs?!:

 

 

I love this unique idea of having the kids make their own unicorn horn by filling up a pyramid container with lollies:

 

 

 

 

 

Of course another fun activity for any kids party is the pinata with this colourful custom pinata made by Party Pony Designer Pinata’s:
