Come on girls, we’re off to the galaxy!
When Olivia’s seventh birthday rolled around, she was certain she didn’t want anything too ‘girly’. And when your mum is Marissa, the director of event planning company, Konfetti Love, you know your birthday is going to nail the brief!
It was only natural for the birthday girl to have a Star Wars themed party. Marissa tells us, ‘Olivia has been on the Star Wars trend for quite a while. Anything Star Wars catches her eye!’
Take a look at how Marissa of Konfetti Love, was able to bring her intergalactic vision to life!
Everything sparkled at this party! Think: metallic silver here, there and everywhere! Foiled streamers, balloons and tinsel were used throughout the decor to give the space an intergalactic feel. Hints of black paired with blush pink added a feminine touch, without being too soft for Olivia’s liking.
We love the black and silver swirl milky way-inspired balloons and the marble cake balls that look like little planets! Marissa even carried the colour scheme through to the floral arrangements by Nouvelle Floral. These bunches consisted of black-eyed anemones, blush pink astilbes, white scabiosa, and pink bunny tails.
The dress code? Princess Leia inspired, of course! Each mini partygoer was gifted a costume to wear—and Princess Leia’s iconic hairstyle and white robe were the perfect choice to set the scene! The focus on one character kept the decor simple and effective.
Olivia’s grandma was so kind to make the robes and braided bun headbands for each of the party guests to dress up in. The look was complete with a gold sash for the waistband. Masks of popular characters Darth Vader and Chewbacca were also handed out as a novelty to take fun photos!
May the force be with you!
