Bear-y first birthday
Throw a “bear-y” first birthday party with pastel blue and neutral accents! I found these amazing customizable party napkins along with an invitation from AfterLunaStudio on Etsy. A fun party favor could be giving guests mini teddy bears on their way out!

Hole in one

I also found some cake toppers on Etsy and another great invitation!

For “paw-ty” favors, you can set up an “adoption center” for each child to pick out a stuffed puppy to take home with them, and dog ear headbands are a huge hit and so sweet for a group picture!
Rookie of the year
This is one my favorite first birthday party themes! It’s easy and so cute for a little boy.
If you’re an Athens area local, these custom cookies are from Julie Bean’s Bakeshop. She also designed cookies for my daughter’s second birthday and can match almost any theme! Make sure to check out her Instagram @juliebeansbakeshop.

A more gentle and sweeter theme, a Peter Rabbit first birthday is precious. A mix of pastels and neutrals and paying attention to details will make your party absolutely darling.

Never Grow up
A Peter Pan/never grow up themed party can be as literal or sentimental as you want. A sentimental route with twinkling stars and pastels is so sweet but a more literal take on Peter Pan may be more fun for younger guests.
Shop Never grow up:
First Trip around the sun
It’s time to celebrate because someone has completed their first trip around the sun! Have an out of this world party with space themed invitations, balloons, and mixing purples and blues with sparkles.
