Current Children's Birthday Party Trends


As a photo invitation designer one of the perks of my job if being able to witness what the current trends are for photo design. I get many requests for custom work that reflects the trends of the moment. I thought I would share a bit of what I have been seeing lately.

Most of the photo birthday invitations I have done recently have had a more modern feel. Parents are choosing to forgo "character" themed parties in favor of a more simple theme. Some popular ideas are polka dots stripes and using an initial as a common thread. This theme works well is you choose 2-3 colors and use that to tie together your party decor. Your photo invitation sets the tone for the party so be sure to check out some of our newest modern designs.

Some other popular themes include cupcakes, rubber ducky, trains, circus, winter one-derland, luau, flowers, monkeys, dogs or sports themes.

The common thread I have been seeing overall is to use one element as your theme and carry it through the entire party form the invitation, the food, and the decor.

Whatever birthday party theme you choose be sure to check Addie Kate Creations for lots of ideas for unique photo invitations!
