Girly Outer Space Birthday Party

Hello, hello, hello! Girl moms- today’s post is for you! Is your daughter not a super girly girl? Or maybe she is, but you’ve already done the princess and mermaid themes. Or maybe you have twins- a boy and a girl and you need a theme that is friendly for both. Well, friends, I have the solution for you- an outer space birthday party theme!

Outer space birthday parties are becoming super popular these days. In fact, this is not the only one I photographed in 2020. Click here to see this monochrome take on this super popular theme. Also known as a boy friendly version. But, what I love most about this party is that its for a girl!

When designer, blogger and industry friend, Malake Nappi reached out to me about photographing her daughter, Mila’s 3rd birthday party, I knew I couldn’t miss it! The theme and concept was- Mila Girl Out of this World for her space loving future astronaut.

I didn’t really know what to expect out of a space themed birthday party. After all, I’m used to shooting weddings where all the details are flowers, stationery, shoes, etc. But this party definitely blew my mind! It was so pretty and well thought out.

Outer Space Birthday Party Ideas

Malake had the best ideas! Here are a few highlights from the party:

*Outer Space Theme (See a different take on this same theme here)
*Blue, Purple & Iridescent Color Scheme
*Rocket Ship Photo Op
*Countdown Balloons with Emphasis on the #3 Balloon
*Kids Table with Petite Seats
*Dessert Table Featuring Rocketship Cookies
*On Trend Tie Dye Top for Mom
*Future Astronaut Tee for Birthday Girl
*Nasa Space Helmet & Pink Astronaut Jacket
*Balloon Installation
*Space Themed Music (The Final Countdown, Walking on the Moon, Counting Stars, etc!)
*Custom Tattoos
*Outer space Images Displayed on TV
*Bar Decor for Kids & Adults featuring juice boxes, water, wine and mocktails for the pregnant mamas in attendance!

Planning your own Outer Space themed party? Check out this Astronaut’s Playlist complete with songs like Rocket Man, Total Eclipse of the Heart, The Final Countdown and Man on the Moon. This would also work really well for an adult birthday party theme! 

My favorite parts of the day include:

*Photographing the trendiest of guests- especially the little ones. Wait until you see these outfits.

*The Girls Only Guest List (except for a few very special VIP little boys)

*Baby Bumps Everywhere!

*Familiar Faces- My past bride, Gia was there with her daughter, Aviana.

The Birthday Party Details

As I’m sure you will be able to tell from these photos, Mila’s mom, Malake is a talented event and interior designer! She thought of every last detail and the result was a big wow factor!

The Big Party Reveal

3rd birthday countdown

Sweet little Mila was so happy when she saw her party set up. She spent the night with her Grandma so her mom could set up her party. This moment is just after the big reveal. How sweet is that little face?! All that hard work paid off, mama!

Testing out the photo op! Malake thought of ever last detail including little decals and stickers on the chairs. I had to make sure to capture every last detail because so much thought went into this party!

I love how seamlessly Malake integrated the party decor into her her decor. During the party, the kids sat at the table and the mama’s could comfortably sit behind on these chic benches.
