Welcome to Candyfornia - A Hollywood inspired kids birthday

Welcome to Candyfornia

BY MELISSA KALOLO – STYLE VINE EVENTS PHOTOS BY BROOKE TUNBRIDGE

This styled shoot is part of Confetti Fair's United States of Party collaboration; a collection of 23 unique parties and events – all inspired by a US location.

Enter this pastel-laden Hollywood inspired dreamscape, a place where magic, fame and creativity collide!

What inspired you to choose California?

California is a fun state that has many talented and inspirational people within the creative arts industry. We had fun mixing aesthetics from such a diverse place.

What was the inspiration for the theme and styling?

This party is an explosion of Katy Perry versus Michelle Rogers (both CA gals). Candyfornia is a fun, vibrant candyland, with an infusion of gorgeous matte pastels, streamer installations and cute florals that are so familiar in the work of styling babe, Michelle Rogers.

Which DIYs or party trends did you incorporate into your shoot?

We incorporated all the things! This included the colour tones, the ceiling streamer installation, an abundance of balloons, layered acrylics and custom fringe piñata installations. The shag cake was another up and coming trend we included.

What is your favourite thing about the USA?

I haven’t been to the USA yet (gasp), so this was a bit of a challenge for me. I do intend on visiting many states in the USA though, and I think California would be a great place to start.

The California Team
