A "bbq baby shower" is a popular thing and maybe those kinds of invitations will give you ideas. There are also "baby is brewing" type shower invitation that could give you ideas too!! Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-1st-birthday-party-theme#post-2529863 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 14:01:22 +0000 Mrsbells 2529863@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like the first invite! I dont think you need to have an actual theme though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-1st-birthday-party-theme#post-2529860 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 13:59:04 +0000 hocuspocus 2529860@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love the first one also but I may be partial...we're planning an outdoor picnic bbq theme for DD also. Yay for June babies! ❤️ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-1st-birthday-party-theme#post-2529835 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 13:40:37 +0000 snowjewelz 2529835@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like the red checkers + burlap/lace. Not liking the cowgirl stuff though but that's just me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-1st-birthday-party-theme#post-2529828 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 13:30:25 +0000 MrsLonghorn 2529828@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like the check and burlap a lot. I think it is very picnic/BBQ<br /> Adding the cow print on either the invite or outfit makes it cowgirl to me, but without it I think you're fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-1st-birthday-party-theme#post-2529812 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 13:15:03 +0000 LindsayInNY 2529812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FaithFertility: Oooh that could work! I just don't want people to think it's an actual BBQ since it's just BBQ food? I am SO overthinking this... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-1st-birthday-party-theme#post-2529761 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 12:27:00 +0000 FaithFertility 2529761@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: Yes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-1st-birthday-party-theme#post-2529756 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 12:25:04 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2529756@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FaithFertility: Very cute! I think even if you used her full first name with a large letter Q that is really cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-1st-birthday-party-theme#post-2529751 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 12:22:35 +0000 FaithFertility 2529751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Q is turning One, join us for some BBQ FUN?!?!?!? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-1st-birthday-party-theme#post-2529697 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 11:48:32 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2529697@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayInNY: What if you just used the letter Q as your theme? Like a big monogram Q and on the invites make the BB small and then a large Q? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-1st-birthday-party-theme#post-2529680 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 11:43:29 +0000 LindsayInNY 2529680@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: I would love to work in BBQ for Q but don't know how! We don't really call her Q, we use her actual name LOL. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-1st-birthday-party-theme#post-2529653 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 11:26:18 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2529653@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayInNY: I wouldn't worry about a "theme" For my daughters first, we just did lime green and hot pink and lots of polka dots. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-1st-birthday-party-theme#post-2529610 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 10:48:22 +0000 Kimberlybee 2529610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: I vote for this design too! So cute. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-1st-birthday-party-theme#post-2529599 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 10:37:15 +0000 LindsayInNY 2529599@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: I like red over pink because pink isn't realistic? It's like pink sports clothing. No sports team has pink colors! I'm weird about that, I guess. The burlap/kraft paper would be inexpensive too!</p> <p>@T.H.O.U.: Do you think I need a "theme"? Or is a color/pattern themed invite enough? So no mention of cowgirl, BBQ, etc.? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-1st-birthday-party-theme#post-2529577 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 10:22:59 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2529577@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the idea of lace and checkers! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-1st-birthday-party-theme#post-2529576 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 10:21:45 +0000 Mamaof2 2529576@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like the top one but this a little more girly if you want that - by same shop </p> [attach=4342/16/o5xuo9.570x570.il_570xN_754672288_4044.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-1st-birthday-party-theme#post-2529573 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 10:19:56 +0000 regberadaisy 2529573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really like that top invite. The red checker with the burlap. I think it's plenty girly!</p> <p>What about red checkered with burlap/Kraft paper and some white doilies? Burlap can be easily found at Michaels and dollar tree has white doilies cheap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-1st-birthday-party-theme#post-2529568 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 10:14:39 +0000 LindsayInNY 2529568@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I need brainstorming help for a "theme" DD's 1st birthday party. We're doing it at a local brewery that allows outside food to be brought out. We were going to have BBQ catered. So BBQ and beer. I was thinking a red check or bandana print since decorations are limited, we can easily have it in a tablecloth. I don't want pink just because she's a girl though. So red with a eyelet sort of lace to girlify it? But I don't know whether to make it cowgirl or rodeo or BBQ theme since it's not outdoors, has nothing to do with horses, etc. So I'm a bit lost. These are some sample images I've found for what I have in mind. Thoughts on a theme or how to focus this a bit better? </p> [attach=2229/16/o5xucf.570x570.-bbq-1st-2-3-cowgirl-cowboy-bridal-baby-shower-invitation-1-.jpg] [attach=2229/16/o5xucg.600x428.cowboy3-1-.jpg] [attach=2229/16/o5xuch.577x600.il_fullxfull.789764908_d78b-1-.jpg]
