How to Throw an Enchanted and Magical Garden Party
A Magical Garden Party
I’m so excited to show you our first ever styled shoot, A Magical Garden Party for Partyora! The theme needed to be Eco friendly and FUN like our brand.
It all started when my eldest son told me “Mum, this year for my birthday I want an Arty Bug Party with a worm pinata”, I loved his creative idea and so the brainstorming began. I researched and reached out to my connections and they loved it, everyone was onboard and a Magical Garden Party was the perfect theme!

There would be fairies, pixies, gnomes, butterflies, bees, lady beetles, mushrooms, flowers– and Magical it was!
I summoned my inner child and got creative.
Together with the wonderful vendors from Partyora and other small businesses involved who were willing to be a part of the shoot, our collective vision came to life!
My boys Orlando, Andre, Roman and Rocco together with their cousin Alexis were our models for the day and were treated to a truly magical and enchanted time.
Captured perfectly by the talented Brittanie from Brittanie Elphick photography, you can view this wonderful collaboration and all that went into creating it here:
Happy Birthday Wall decoration by Rachelle from Honeycomb Living
Designed to be reused and handmade from natural birch plywood, these gorgeous Happy Birthday Wall decorations by Honeycomb Living are a versatile backdrop for everyone in the household to use and we’re a little obsessed!
We used Blu Tack to style it on the brick wall with hand-cut, coloured paper butterflies for the shoot which was so simple. You could decorate using this timber wall sign in so many different ways.
They’re available for purchase at partyora here
Backdrop Design by Tenneal, Bunnies & Bee
One half of Bunnies & Bee, Tenneal, designed this unbelievable custom Backdrop just for our styled shoot! Complete with mystical fairies, flora and fauna, it truly set the tone for the entire event and Tenneal definitely nailed the brief.

Leaf Crowns by Partyora
The outfit wouldn’t have been complete without these adorable custom felt leaf crowns, handmade by our team. One size fits most with these crowns and they can be purchased here in various themed styles soon.

Mushroom Choc mud Cake by Stephanie at Just a spoonful of sugar
The kids were treated to some delightful desserts to feast on like –THAT CAKE! The super talented Stephanie from Just a spoonful of sugar cakes created this Magnificent Mushroom Choc-Mud Cake and I must admit to joining in on the feasting! Stephanie makes custom cakes for all sorts of special occassions and I can personally vouch that they are perfection in each slice!!
Custom Fairy Garden Cupcakes by Cupcakes by Sandra
These delectable Chocolate Fairy Garden Cupcakes with so many tiny details were provided by Cupcakes by Sandra and the kids enjoyed choosing which decorated cupcake they would eat.

A wonderful finishing touch to a cake table or grazing board spread.

Natural Crayons by Courtney from Mikookids
We had Crayons at the table setting and then used them at the activity table. Our little Party goers had time to sit and colour with these natural Hand poured crayons. There were bees, bugs and flowers in so many colours! Setting up a craft or colouring in station helps little ones who may feel anxious or need a quiet space to unwind with all the excitment from a party. You can see them in use in some of the photos below!
