The Story
A children's birthday is the easiest party to phone in — and the one your child will remember longest. We design every kids' birthday we take on around the child at the centre of it, so the afternoon feels like their world, the photographs stay in the album, and the parents get to be guests at their own party.
01. Children's birthday parties, at editorial level
A children's birthday party doesn't have to look like a party-supply aisle. We design kids' birthdays the way we design every celebration — as one cohesive world built around the child: the book they can't put down, the animal they're obsessed with, the colour they insist on wearing. The result photographs like an editorial spread, feels like a daydream to a five-year-old, and leaves the parents free to actually enjoy the afternoon.
02. Themes we design most often
Princess tea parties with real porcelain and dried-floral crowns. Enchanted garden and woodland parties with moss tables and fairy lights. Dinosaur digs, under-the-sea, hot-air balloon, safari, outer space, unicorn and rainbow worlds. Sleepover salons and spa parties for tweens. Cupcake- and cookie-decorating parties with a pastry chef. We never pull a theme from a catalogue — every design starts from what your child actually loves.
03. First birthdays & toddler parties
A first birthday is as much for the parents and grandparents as for the baby. We design soft, photographable first-birthday celebrations — balloon installations, smash-cake stations, a nap-friendly timeline, shaded play areas — so the day is calm, beautiful and documented. Half-birthdays and sibling joint parties are welcome too.
04. Entertainment, activities & the things kids remember
We book from a closed roster of LA's most-trusted children's entertainers: costumed character actors, magicians, puppeteers, face painters, balloon artists, bubble shows, petting zoos and ponies, craft stations, and cooking and cupcake-decorating classes. Every entertainer is briefed on the design world, the age group, and the run-of-show, so the activities feel like part of the party rather than bolted on.
05. Backyard parties, venues & the San Fernando Valley
Most of our kids' birthdays happen at private homes — backyards in Encino, Sherman Oaks, Studio City, Calabasas and Hidden Hills; gardens in Brentwood, Pacific Palisades and Beverly Hills. We also plan at parks (permits handled), play spaces, private clubs, hotel lawns and restaurants across Los Angeles, Pasadena and the Westside. Wherever the party is, we bring the design, rentals, set-up and full breakdown to you.
06. Investment & packages
Children's birthday parties are custom-quoted to the guest count, venue and design vision. Styled backyard parties with balloons, tablescape and a dessert table typically start around $3,500; fully designed celebrations with entertainment, catering, rentals and on-site coordination generally fall between $5,000 and $25,000. We send a tailored estimate after the discovery call.
