Largely due to lockdown when so many little ones missed out on celebrating a Christening with close family members due to so many restrictions, mums are now making a BIG deal of their little one's religious and birthday parties.

In addition, our social media feeds do not help. It only takes a mummy celebrity to host a big, lavish 'Wild One' party for their little one's big first birthday and then everyone wants to do it.

Whether it's balloon arches, flower walls, sweetie stations, donut ring boards, foamex welcome boards or all of the above, no expense is spared at these events.

Big trends for this year continue to be green jungle leaves and wild animals for the classic 'wild one' as well as cute sea pastel tones such as lilac, pink and powder blue.

Boho chic is still big this year so you're in good company of you're featuring pampas grass or cute feathers.

And let's face it, it is so lovely to have a big family party to celebrate something so special after all those months of not being able to do it, so why hold back?!
