A Coachella-Inspired Party and Community Pantry for Ava’s First Birthday

Wins and milestones, no matter how big or small they may seem, are always worth celebrating—a healthy pregnancy and making it through another year during a pandemic is no exception. Due to the current situation, Ava’s parents decided to throw an intimate celebration and instead of a grand guest list, they shared their blessings to more people through a birthday community pantry. This is an idea that will certainly make the celebration unforgettable and meaningful to many! For Ava’s first birthday dinner celebration, the styling was inspired by Coachella with its bright, pastel colors, rustic lights, and tropical decor. The set-up was complete with a floral entrance installation and mini cactuses lining the tablescape. Even Ava’s cake looked totally in theme!
