Such a cute party with so many adorable ideas! Perfect for Easter or any spring soiree! Some of my favorite elements in this Easter party are:
The Easter egg tree
The favor cones filled with fresh fruits and vegetables
The glass egg cups holding chocolate eggs
and MORE!
Here’s what Cris had to say about planning the party- “I always have a blast styling a party using Amanda’s Parties To Go printables! Amanda has the most adorable and colorful designs.
The dessert table was full of easy and colorful treats that were a feast to our tummies and eyes! To create the pallet backdrop, I glued several pieces of scrapbook paper found at Hobby Lobby to a foam board. I attached the Happy Easter Banner from Amanda’s free Easter collection and added mini wreaths to the backdrop. The sweets included Kisses push up pops, Tulip cake pops, Hershey’s chocolate, chocolate eggs, chocolate bunnies, jelly beans and sweet popcorn. I kept the sweets simple and focused on the presentation using a lot of Spring items and took advantage of the huge items included in the printable set to really make the party pop. The party activity was to build and paint your own bird house, and of course we had an Easter Egg Hunt as well! It was a fun and happy way to welcome Spring and celebrate Easter!”

This precious LITTLE DUCKLING EASTER + SPRING PARTY was submitted by Suzanne Olvey of Fanciful Events.
This adorable spring soiree is so adorable! Some of my favorite elements are:
The egg shaped paper lanterns
The burlap “spring” pennant banner
The egg carton party favors
and MORE!
This is what Suzanne said about planning the party- “I did a simple Easter brunch and used a touch of ducklings throughout. I wanted to do this theme a little differently and switch out the pastel color scheme with coral, turquoise, yellow and touches of gold. Since I decided on a duckling theme I wanted there to be lots of “egg” elements throughout the dessert table. I also incorporated eggs in the decor, dessert displays and as take home favors {egg cartoons with candy in them}. There were also fun and festive Easter “Nutcrackers”. The brunch menu was simple but full of wonderful things such as waffles on a stick, powdered donuts, mini cinnamon rolls, mini blueberry muffins, donut holes, mini cupcakes and a couple of sweet treats. I wanted to do something sweet, simple and fun.”
This KIDS’ PASTEL EASTER BUNNY THEMED BRUNCH was submitted by Bird of Bird’s Party.
There are so many cute ideas in this Easter bunny themed party for kids. A few of my favorite elements are:
The yarn-wrapped egg carton favor boxes
The paper rose pomanders and paper potted flowers
The Easter bunny straw toppers and cupcake wrappers
Here’s what Bird had to say about planning the party- “This is year I decided to re-design our original Easter Bunny printables using a pastel color scheme: Pastel pinks, yellow, blue and green. I also added a few more cute printables into the set, like the paper bows, adorable Easter Bunny Cupcake Wrappers in four colors, cute printable bag toppers and brand new invitations. It’s a total of over 18 pages of printables to help style a beautiful Easter Party with ease and without breaking the bank! ;)
This Easter party contains lots of handmade and crafty details like a paper version of my plush fabric flowers! I really wanted to incorporate those in the styling of the mini candy station, but had no time nor the patience to sew 4 new colored flowers, so I tried using paper instead – Guess what? it worked beautifully and took half the time!
For the styling I wanted to keep it simple but cute, so I used a lot of the Easter printables to decorate the candy station and the kid’s table. Large, pastel-colored paper lanterns hung from the tree above the table, which added color, provided shade and looked quite dramatic without too much effort! ;)
Since the printables had a pastel color scheme, I used the same colors in wool yarn to complement the tableware and add a little warmth. I also made a really simple wreath by wrapping the wool yarn around a polystyrene wreath and embellishing it with rolled crepe paper roses. I used napkins to make some of the other pomanders for the desserts/candy station.
The table setting was pretty simple and disposable tableware was used. Each guest had a bunny place-card with their names on and a cute Easter paper basket full of treats!
The centerpiece was an Easter Egg Bouquet. I really love how versatile this centerpiece idea is, especially for a kids’ table – This bouquet doesn’t need watering, it’s child-friendly and edible! can’t ask for better than that!
Each place setting was finished off with a cute bottle wrapped with our printable bottle wrappers and colored straws embellished with printable Easter Bunnies from the collection!
The candy buffet was styled atop a white, distressed dresser (from my daughter’s bedroom). It added height and allowed me to make the best of a small space. The sweet treats on offer are of course chocolate Easter eggs, as well as marshmallows matching the party color scheme, chocolate candy bars, jelly gum eggs inside egg cartons, cream cheese Easter Bunny cupcakes and strawberry meringues.
I guess with any Easter Party you gotta have an Egg Hunt, right? Our printable Egg Hunt signage and cute printable Easter Egg baskets doubled as favor baskets too, and were used by the kids to hunt for chocolate eggs around the garden!
Our printable bunny ears, also make for a really fun activity, where guests can decorate their own head-bands. They make for fun photo props too! My daughter insisted on having her ears pinned to the flower headband she was wearing! Girls will be girls! ;)
For the favors and gifts, I thought it would be really fun to display them onto a mini wooden wheel barrel I have – But you could re-purpose a vegetable box or crate painted white for the same “garden” effect.
Favors included speckled chocolate eggs bags topped with Easter Bunny printable bag toppers, chocolate candy bars wrapped in matching wrappers, and Easter Eggs displayed inside egg cartons. I decorated each carton with scrap-booking papers from the kit, yarn, a printable Easter favor tag and some of those super cute, printable paper bows!”

This adorable SEERSUCKER & BOW TIE EASTER PARTY was submitted by Deanna Talwalkar of Mirabelle Creations.
This party is full of charming and darling ideas that could be used for more than just an Easter party. Many of the elements could be used for a baby shower or 1st birthday party, too!
Some of my favorite things about this Easter party are:
The seersucker fabric bow tie wrapped around the cake
This is what Deanna said about planning the party- “This Easter party was inspired by two of my favorite southern spring fashion items — bow ties and seersucker print.
Dessert Table: The inspiration for the table started with pale pink, yellow, and light blue seersucker fabrics. All of the printable paper goods incorporate those colors, along with a pop of coral. The printable paper goods also include a simple stripe, like the seersucker fabric. The dessert table was first topped with pink ruffled seersucker table runners that I made. A fabric flag banner, made from yellow and blue seersucker fabric, decorated the bead board backdrop. A white hobnob vase held blue hydrangeas. Small ceramic bunnies and chicks were placed on the table for a subtle Easter vibe.
Easter, and the onset of Spring, is the perfect time for light, fresh desserts. Angel Food Cake was topped with whipped frosting and toasted coconut. A hand made bow tie was wrapped around the cake. Bow ties also decorated cake stands and candy jars. Strawberry Filled Vanilla Cupcakes with Vanilla buttercream were topped with Easter cupcake toppers from the printable paper goods Collection. The table also included Strawberry Mousse, Assorted Macarons, and Vanilla Meringues.
Drink Station: A small drink station was set up on a vintage vanity table. Sparkling Strawberry Lemonade was served in mason jar glasses adorned with bow ties. Push up pops were filled with macarons for simple take-home favors.”

This is what Mariah said about planning the party- “I planned a colorful celebration and gathered our family for an Easter brunch and egg hunt. For this casual family affair I used the play set in my parent’s backyard as the backdrop and hung a fabric banner and colorful picture frames to add a pop of color. A coffee filter wreath my grandmother made and the Easter Egg Hunt sign from Dimple Prints served as a focal point for the party table.
The food was delicious and everyone pitched in and helped make something. My sister made the coconut egg nest, my dad made the ham and egg nest and I made yogurt parfaits, mini pancakes and cupcakes. We also had fresh fruit, scrambled eggs, bacon and hard boiled eggs.
After brunch, the kids went on an egg hunt and once all the eggs were found they sat down to see what goodies were inside. It was so fun to watch them share with each other and make “trades” for their favorites. One of our favorite Easter traditions is Cascarones Eggs (also known as confetti eggs) so grandma gave each of the kids a box of confetti eggs and let them go wild. This truly is one of my favorite things, the giggles that ensue are simply priceless!”
