Name: Bruna (2)
Location: Brasilia, Brazil
Party 'B as in... Bruna' (the birthday girl) was all decorated and embellished with objects starting with the letter B: ballerinas, balloons, bycicles, [soap] bubbles, biscuits, and bonbons, to the sound of bossa-nova (a style of Brazilian music developed and popularized in the 1950s and 1960s).
A Save the Date video was sent to all guests by e-mail; invitations were a pack of biscuits wrapped as a bonbon; and many crafts (in fabric and in scrapbooking format) were designed exclusively for this party (tagged #festabdebruna at Instagram).
Pink vintage furniture and delicate shades of pink, yellow, blue and turquoise were chosen to embellish everything I had imagined to impress our guests. Cotton-candy, small spoons with decorations, colored popcorn, butterfly-shaped cookies inside cages, waffle biscuits (so hard to resist!) wrapped in fabric were some of the different details of this party.
A giant balloon, inspired by the movie Up!, surprised all guests, who were encouraged to take fun photos simulating balloon rides.

Ooh, I love seeing this because we are going to do a B-themed party for my son Bennett's 2nd birthday in February. So many of his favorite things start with B: bubbles, balloons, blue, Brobee, baseballs, blueberries, buckets, basketball, bicycles, bounce houses. . . This is a very sweet and feminine take on the version I had in mind for our family.
Dear Carrie,
Thank you for your interest in # festabdebruna, I prepared with so much love for my daughter, family and friends.
Thanks, also, for the kind words used to describe the party.
You filled me with pride and emotion.
I enjoy and follow your site often.
Even more,
Iza Garcia
