Under the Stars 15th Birthday party

I am absolutely in LOVE with how our Under the Stars 15th Birthday party turned out! From the lighted backdrop to the gold rimmed dishes, everything was just perfect. And that even includes the teenagers that came to celebrate together!

The time comes in every mom’s life, when you have to plan a birthday party for your 15 year old daughter. And while you might shed a tear or two, while drowning your sorrows in a glass or two of wine, you know it has to be stellar (see what I did there?) so you dig in deep, and do it! So, for my sweet daughter’s fifteenth birthday, she and I chose an Under the Star theme with a galaxy look to the graphics. It was SO much fun to design, and so much fun to decorate! From the deep blue table covers, to the gorgeous black cake pedestals, to the matching everything, it turned out better than we could have imagined.

For the dessert table, underneath it all is a gorgeous fitted Tablevogue cover. Three black cake pedestals were accented with gold wire “baskets”, and acrylic risers and boxes added lots of level changes. White cake pedestals and white and gold trophy style compotes were set on top of a gold netting runner, while a white light “curtain” sparkled behind a printed themed poster. And the desserts? OH those desserts! Cake pops, rice krispie treats and chocolate caramels were total show stoppers! And because the birthday girl requested a home made (by me) carrot cake, I HAD to add a little chocolate sprinkles cake topper bark detail (check out the video at the end of this post).

.Now, these girls had to eat somewhere, so why not make it a fabulous place to eat! We set up our round table with a matching blue table cover, and some seriously sparkly place settings. Black and white striped plates, a darling white and gold star trinket tray, a charger made from the patterned sheets in our printable kit, a personalized printable popcorn box, Arnold Palmer bottled drinks wrapped and topped with a paper straw and flag, real cloth napkins and gold trimmed flatware (my wedding flatware!). We also made the centerpiece out of the party favors! Little travel size containers of glittery hand sanitizer. Now, after we took a few pics, they were served a very fancy dinner of burgers and fries – it was totally hilarious.

These girls are so cute! And such great friends. I have to tell you, after dinner they headed straight out to the garage (too much rain here in southern California made our backyard into a mud pit) to watch movies and send each other snapchats. Some comfy beach chairs, lots more popcorn, a white sheet and a pretty phenomenal digital projector kept these girls (and a few more) busy for the rest of the night!
