  1. Let's celebrate in paradise! For Mila's 11th birthday, she wanted a lush tropical paradise party - complete with toucans, flamingos, LARGE flowers, and LIVE tropical animals, oh my! I designed a line of colorful party accessories with bright color tones, and exciting props to help bring in the tropical vibe. Paradise Awaits!Picture

  35. I always have a dessert/snack table that is separate than the food/dinner buffet. This is great for large parties, as guests can "snack" on the dessert table before the meal.

  45. I love to have a separate beverage station with a variety of refreshing beverages. I always include water as an option, as the South Texas heat can be so oppressive! I also include sprite bottles so you can mix them with the fruit drinks for a "fancy" drink that the kids LOVE!

  57. Everyone knows I LOVE party straws! I personalized them with Mila's name and age 11 in colorful pink and green colors. The gold straws are the perfect "bling" to add to the rustic nature of an outdoor party. Completed the effect with fun mini drink umbrellas - Cheers!

  61. I got fabric from JoAnn Fabrics® for the tables, and combined color tones of pink, green, and gold to complete the look. It also helps to have a mix of textures to the fabric, to really give it a layered effect. Faux leaves and branches help achieve the rustic aesthetic and dramatic outdoor look.

    Water Balloon Toss
  68.  
  69. "Toucan Party Better Than One!" Water Balloon Toss was a BIG hit! It was a very hot and humid day, so the toss quickly turned into a water balloon frenzy of water "fighting". It was a great way to cool off!
