“Mommy, You’re the Best!” @PearTreeGreet #sp

Disclosure: I received a coupon for the purchase of the products.
All opinions are 100% my own.

For me, planning parties are stressful. The anxiety lies completely around whether people will come and if they’ll enjoy themselves. Thankfully, Pear Tree Greetings makes choosing your invitations, decorations and Thank You cards easy.

When I had the opportunity to review their products and service, I couldn’t wait! I mean, this is the first birthday party I’m throwing in Florida, and I have my in-laws looking over my shoulder. I have to make it perfect!

When entering Pear Tree Greetings‘ site, I was so excited to see that their invitations are not the average invitation. You can upload your own photo, then depending on the design choice, you can add an overlay, like the crown pictured to the left.

All of the colors are fully customizable, so Bee’s party was “All Princesses + Strawberry Shortcake”. So the colors we chose were the blue of Cinderella, and the pink of Strawberry Shortcake’s hair. Pear Tree Greetings allows you to mix and match ALL colors! You can completely make it your own!

Next came the decorations! Granted, I had no idea what I wanted for decorations, I’m a pretty simplistic when it comes to things like that, so choosing decorations was a new space for me.

So what’s a girl to do? Start shopping! Since I chose the Crown Me invitation, I figured I should stick with the Crown Me decorations.

I wasn’t even sure what to do with these. These decorations are flat cards that are fully editable, being able to change the color and the wording. Again, I had to think about it for a while, but I settled on “We Love You”, a capital “B” and Princess Bee’s Third Birthday. Super creative, right?

When we got to the party, we I had these circles to use around the party. I decided to put some on the table, and some on the window between the gymnasium and the lobby (where the eating was going to take place).

 

Bee (and everyone else) LOVED the party. The decorations were just the right touch. I added a Happy Birthday banner, a few balloons and table stands to bring the princesses to Bee’s party.

Finally I chose the Simply Green Thank You cards, I wanted something super simple so I could do what I’d like. I’ll be putting pictures of Bee and each friend in the card to send as a thank you for attending!

Now for where Mommy (aka me) is the best! I took the decorations from the party and put them in her room. Since she went to her grandmother’s right after the party, I was able to spend a few minutes dressing up her room. With the circle decorations on the wall, she walked into her room and came out almost immediately with a

“Thank You Mommy, You’re the Best!” I melted immediately and I knew that I had made the right choices. Thank you Pear Tree Greetings!

Don’t worry! If you want to get your Christmas cards out before December 25th, they can do it! Check them out today!

    • She had a blast. She (and a couple of friends) thought it was going to be a daily occurrence!

    • The ordering process (and saving process) was great. I know I had to come back several times to figure out exactly what I wanted, and you could save mid project.

    • Oh, it was so nice to not have to think about the invitations. I was able to get them out on time and everyone LOVED them.

    • Thanks. They have such a great selection. I was so happy to be able to choose something different, since Bee didn't want her party in the box.

  5. Hi April! Aw. Princess Bee is adorable and it sounds like she had a blast at her party and afterward too. It was very sweet that you decorated her room and even sweeter that she recognized it and showed appreciation for your efforts. I think simple always works best for small kids. Great job!

    • I completely melted when she said it. She's a hard girl to crack and sometimes can be outright mean. It was so nice to see her softer and appreciative side.

    • They were great and easy to work with. Thank you! She's a handful, but adorable!

  6. What a great lookin party! We don't do parties anymore. I spent way too much on my oldest 5 bday and it was a nightmare now we just do family!

    • We don't do many, and the ones we have haven't cost us that much, thankfully. I'm a bargain shopper.

  8. I could get on board with this! I do get major anxiety when it comes to throwing parties. Whatever makes it better I am for it

    • I loved that I could save the project instead of having to start over since I don't always make up my mind immediately.
