Pear Tree Summer Picnic

Posted on by Shelly

We had a blast throwing this fun picnic for our team members and families! There is no better way to spend time with your favorite people than outside on a beautiful day. A trendy striped straw was the inspiration for the Sip Something Cool party invitation as well as the inspiration for our picnic ideas. We used fun and bright colors to make a balloon backdrop for our candy bar (a big hit with the Pear Tree kids) and a fabric backdrop for our photo booth (a big hit with the Pear Tree grownups, as you can see!)

The usual picnic fare of burgers, chips and salads satisfied kids and adults, but the kids especially loved the dessert/candy bar where they could fill a small favor bag with their favorite candies for dessert.

Movie Night Birthday Party

Posted on by Christy

My good friend Marni enlisted my help for her daughter’s 5th birthday party. As the mom of two boys, it was so much fun to be involved in the planning of a GIRL party! Since her birthday is in the summer we wanted to find something fun to do outdoors, and we landed on doing an outdoor movie night. Her daughter loves movies, especially at movie theaters, so we wanted to bring that experience to their backyard.

We found the perfect invitation, Glowing Affair Photo Trifold Party Invitations, which gave us the flexibility to change colors, fonts and text so we could make it fit our theme. We changed the main text to read, “IT’S SHOWTIME!” For the photo we had a little mini photo session with the perfect prop, popcorn. Pretty sure Gwyneth had a great time, and it really helped set the stage for the party! Turns out the invitations inspired a lot of our outdoor movie party ideas, including the decorations, colors and activities.

Even before choosing the invitation we knew we wanted lanterns and lights hanging around the yard. Pinterest had LOTS of ideas for this, some not so realistic, but we threw some up here and there, and it definitely added a little element of ‘party’ to the backyard.

Summer Party Ideas: Try Something New

Posted on by Dani

Most of the time when you think about summer party ideas, you think about food: grilling, eating outdoors, those are the key ingredients. But what if you thought about it in a different way?

One of the moms at Pear Tree wanted to organize an outing for her family reunion, so she came up with a list of activities that they could do as a group that would be something more than the usual picnic. We thought we’d share it, and added a few ideas of our own, in case they sparked some summer party ideas for you!

  • Go to an amusement park.
  • Take the picnic to a local lake or beach. No water? Rent a room at a hotel that has a pool or water park. Continue reading →
