A Modern Hello Kitty Birthday Party
Regardless of whether you're a Hello Kitty fan or not, we're betting you're going to love this birthday party, thrown by wedding and event planner Gloria Wong for her daughter Taylor's second birthday.
Although the famed cat features heavily at this party on top of the cake, on cookies, and through the use of her iconic bows (guests were each given one to wear as a headband or bow tie; can you say "adorable?"), Gloria's stylish take on the theme feels totally modern — think of it as kiddie minimalism.

A Brave Birthday Party
Inspired by her daughter Ella's love of Disney film Brave, Hana Lynch — a mom, blogger, and photographer — created a whimsical fifth birthday party that appeals to the inner rebel-princess in all of us. "I wanted the party table to evoke a sense of being within the enchanting forest that Merida encounters during her adventure," Hana says. "I created this feeling using natural elements like moss and tree stumps to display the food. The light-up 'wisps' gave it a magical touch." Add in an incredible cake; gender-neutral activities including a "haggis" toss, archery, and design-your-own coats of arms; and one adorable birthday girl — and you have one adventurous birthday bash!

A Pink and Blue Sleeping Beauty Party
We've seen our fair share of princess parties inspired by Disney. But while Sleeping Beauty — aka Briar Rose, aka Princess Aurora — is one of our favorite classic Disney princesses, she hasn't popped up on the kid party circuit much . . . until now (though we're guessing she'll get more popular with next year's release of Maleficent)! Suzanne Olvey of Fanciful Events used the cursed princess as an inspiration for her daughter's lovely birthday party, full of rose-topped sweets, a cake fit for royalty, and an awesome design-your-own-tutu station. "I wanted to incorporate the famous pink vs. blue fight between the fairies," Suzanne says. "The party turned out really special and so magical." Click here for all the princess-perfect details!

A Safari Birthday Party For an Animal-Lovin' Little Lady
We see a lot of adventurous birthday party themes for little boys, but who says girls can't also get in on the action? For little Reese's first birthday bash, her parents decided a safari theme was the only way to go.
"Reese loves animals," says Kelly McLeskey-Dolata of A Little Savvy Event, the party planners hired to execute the kiddie event. "The greatest activity of the day had to be the live safari animals. Reese loved seeing the snakes and baby alligators, and it added an unexpected and lively aspect to the day." Click here to see all the sweet safari details!

A Strawberry Shortcake Birthday Party
For her daughter Lou's fourth birthday party, Krista Salmon of popular design blog Kiki's List was faced with a challenge: how to make Lou's requested theme — Strawberry Shortcake — appeal to both the birthday girl and her own superchic design sense. "I tried to incorporate as many tasteful strawberries as possible, but the overall theme tying everything together was pink. Perfect for a party full of 4-year-old girls," Krista says.

A Gorgeous Glamping Party
The Bachelorette's Emily Maynard is a supermom, and she didn't let her suddenly extremely public persona stop her from throwing an incredible, girlie camping birthday bash for her daughter, Ricki. The talented gals of Anders Ruff got together with Emily to create a creative, sweet glamping (that's glam-camping for those of you who haven't caught on to the trend yet) party. Complete with a gorgeous cake and on-theme sweets (the individual trail-mix containers and take-home s'mores are just two of many standout components), girlie paper goods from Anders Ruff's printable collection, and lots of stylish details (including, of course, an awesome tent), Ricki's party is positively lovely — and nope, there wasn't a rose in sight.

Sweet and Saucy! A Bow-Filled First Birthday Party
Pastry chef Melody Brandon of Sweet & Saucy Shop has been the sugar-loving mind behind some of our favorite parties ever, so when Melody's little lady Blake celebrated her first birthday, of course she had to do it with sweet and saucy style!
"I have always loved putting bows and headbands on Blake since the day she was born, so I thought the 'Bows for Blake' theme would be fitting and lots of fun," Melody says.
Melody went big with the bow theme, enlisting her sister to help create an incredible bow backdrop, dressing up almost all of the amazing dessert selections with bows and, of course, putting a bow on Blake! Add in the pink-and-gold color scheme, a gorgeous photo display of Blake's first year, and one happy birthday girl, and you have one sweet party. Click here to check out all the details.

A Tween-Tastic Instagram-Themed Birthday Party
Like you, we're pretty obsessed with Instagram, so when we spotted this Insta-party from Anders Ruff, we knew we had to share. Designed for 11-year-old Brynne, the daughter of Anders Ruff designer Adria Ruff (who threw the party together in two days!), this tween bash took the famous Instagram icon and made it girlie in shades of pink, lime green, and baby blue. A cute store-bought cake was jazzed up with ribbon, gumballs, and printable Instagram icons, and voilà, you have one enviable, tween-approved Instagram party! Click here for all the details.

A Too-Too Cute Tutus and Teacups Birthday Party
"I am a planner by nature and knew the day after my daughter’s first birthday that I wanted to do a teacups and tutu theme using soft pinks and oranges for her second," says Johanna Saucier, mom to 2-year-old Presley.
"I incorporated teacups in the cake balls and printables and in real teacups purchased from the flea market and used for floral arrangements," she continues. "I also wanted subtle and sweet touches of tulle, including the pom garland, tutus for each little girl, and tulle wands." But the details don't stop there. From a DIY dress-up closet and shabby-chic doily accents to a framed photo dessert table backdrop, the many ideas at this party made us want to steal them. Our favorite, though, has to be the tulle-topped ombré cakes that lined the party table. Simply "tutu" chic! Click here to check out all the details of this inspired party.

A Lovely, Whimsical Pink Circus Birthday Party
"The pink circus came to town for my daughter Marguerite's second birthday!" says Anne Ligeard Murat of New York-based children's party, paper, and gift site Clafoutis. "My daughter is very mischievous. She is full of energy and always trying bold acrobatics at the playground. In French, we use the expression 'Marguerite fait le cirque,' meaning she is creating her own circus. She also loves pink, so voilà — we had our theme!"
While undoubtedly a kiddie affair, Anne put her stylish, sophisticated spin on the party, incorporating designer fabrics, a custom artwork, a beautiful cake topper, and vintagey tutus. Click here to see all the chic circus details.

A Sweet, Sprinkles-Inspired Party
Piper Jane has a notorious love of sweets, so her mom — Kirstin Gentry of Kojo Designs — wasn't surprised when the 2-year-old requested "sprinkles" as the theme of her birthday party. "Her sweet tooth is renowned in these parts (second only to her mama's), so a sprinkle party is perfectly suited for her second birthday celebration," Kirstin says. What could have turned into a pretty straightforward party became super creative in Kirstin's hands.

"Ripley absolutely loves pigs and bunnies, so a country fair for the ladies felt like the perfect theme," Jenni says of her daughter's second birthday party. "Not knowing exactly what my version of a country fair looked like, I was inspired by the different parties that I found on Pinterest and ran with it." Wildflower arrangements, homemade pies and cakes, fair games like a ringtoss and sack races, and of course, Ripley's much-adored farm animals all made an appearance at this old-fashioned party.

An Over-the-Top Project Runway Party
When her almost-4-year-old daughter, Charlotte, requested yet another princess birthday party, Nicole of Million Dollar Smile Celebrations decided the old theme needed a new spin. "We watch Project Runway together, and she has quite the eye for fashion," Nicole says. "So when I suggested Charlotte's Royal Project Runway fashion show, I had her attention. When I told her the 'challenge' would be to create a look inspired by a princess to walk the runway, I had the judges' approval!" This inspirational Project Runway party is so detailed and over the top that we're guessing little Charlotte will be talking about it for many birthdays to come. Make it work, birthday girl!

"It was important to us that anyone could replicate this party," Louise says of the printable party collection.

A Cute Doc McStuffins Party
Just because you're basing a party on a cartoon character, that doesn't mean it has to look like you stepped into a Disney animation studio. Jenny Keller, the baker and event designer behind Seattle-based Jenny Cookies, proves that time and time again.
So when Bill Horn and Scout Masterson, aka the Guncles, started working with Jenny to plan their daughter Simone's birthday party around her favorite animated character, Jenny knew they could do it in a sophisticated way. "For [Simone's] third birthday, Bill and Scout chose a Doc Simone party theme based around Disney’s hit show Doc McStuffins," Jenny said. "I'm normally not a huge fan of licensed character parties, but I knew we could pull this one off without too much of the cheesy character look. Doc and her gang are actually pretty adorable characters."
With a make-your-own-ID-tag crafting station and a fill-your-own candy prescription counter, not to mention a menu packed with items inspired by the show's characters, you have to see all of the sweet details Jenny, Bill, and Scout worked into this beautiful party! Click here to check them all out.
