In October (gasp!!) my partner turned thirty and my son turned two. Today I'm FINALLY sharing with you all of the details of the party-talk about procrastinating!!!
Because their birthdays are two weeks apart it made more sense to do a joint celebration than to do two separate parties. The hardest part was picking a theme that wasn't too babyish or too grown up. After much deliberation we decided on a Mr Man Theme with moustaches and neckties. "Mr Man" seemed to confuse people so we decided to call it a Moustashe Bash instead.
The Invitation:
I love the color scheme of aqua and red with black and white accents so I designed the invitation to match.
The Decor:
We had the party at a park near our house that we loved and was perfect for both toddlers and adults to enjoy. I hung up clusters of red, blue and white balloons on the pillars and then hung string between them. I then attached ties with pegs and cut outs of the numbers two and thirty. Can you believe that we were able to find all of these ties at S's parents house?
The table was covered in an aqua table cloth and red with white polka dotted wrapping paper as the table runner. Both were purchased from the dollar store for two dollars a piece.
I drew moustaches on the cups with a sharpie and attached paper moustaches to red and blue straws. The moustache template was a freebie from The Inspired Bride that I shrunk to fit and the straws and cups were also purchased from the dollar store.
