60th Birthday Party Ideas

Celebrations· Parties

If you are looking for some fun and fabulous 60th birthday party ideas, look no further. On July 9th we celebrated my mom’s 60th Birthday! Just because you are celebrating someone’s 60th birthday, doesn’t mean you have to compromise in style and sparkle!

60th Birthday Party Ideas

My mom is fabulous and so I knew we wanted to celebrate her in an elegant yet fun and sassy way. So, we did! Here’s how:

60th birthday party ideas: The Where

60th Birthday Party Ideas

Find out your special birthday person’s favorite restaurant or style of food and book it. My mom loves Seasons 52. The location by us had several party rooms. So we had our party there, while the fantastic chef’s prepared a delicious meal.

I loved the wall full of deep cherry red cabinets and wine racks full of all kinds of wine. It just added to the beauty of the space.

60th Birthday Party Ideas

To make a party fabulous and full of love you’ve got to pay attention to the details. After all, love is in the details!

Above you’ll see a picture of a beautiful jar. It is gold with clear spots where you can see inside just barely. I found these at Michaels, tied a black and white ribbon I had in my own collection (also from Michaels) and threw the birthday girls favorite flower in there, in the color of my color scheme. Viola! You’ve got a super easy 60th birthday party idea with glitter and gold. Or maybe just the gold… that glitters. 😉

60th Birthday Party Ideas

Add some chic and festive elements in the color scheme of your party and you can help a place feel more like a party than just a dinner. So cute!

These fun signs were so inspirational and communicated the fabulousness of my mom in this time of her life. It was the best touch the set the tone for this celebration.

60th Birthday Party Ideas

While I was thinking of more 60th birthday party ideas I came across these cake pops on Etsy.

I loved them! They were gorgeous and super tasty. You can get these Rustic Poppy Flower Cake Pops at The New York Cake Poppery on Etsy.

Another great 60th birthday party idea is to set up a photo booth. This one was pretty easy to set up. The banner I found as a free download online. I printed it at home on thick card stock paper and cut them out. I dug into my stash of ribbons from Michaels and threaded it through the slots I carved in the paper.

The sign with my moms name I made at home with my Cricut machine. I am a total novice when it comes to this machine. So it took me forever to make it so that it came our right. Ugh! There was probably an easier way to do it and I probably could’ve just asked my local Cricut guru, Brendaliz. But It was a late night session and couldn’t bring myself to waker her in the wee hours of the morning. 🙂

The gold shimmer sequin fabric photography backdrop is my absolute favorite and I got it from dropstudios on Etsy.

60th Birthday Party Ideas

A perfect 60th birthday party idea is this Chalkboard 60th Birthday Poster personalized for my mom’s birth year. It was so cool to take a step back in time and present it in such an elegant way. You can find this poster and posters like it at the Esty shop called invitefull.

Now if I had to be really honest with you, this was sort of the first thing I purchased for the party and was the main inspiration for this party. My mom really enjoys Moscatos and so I found this pink one in mini bottle size and I thought, “What a perfect party favor!” I purchased these in bulk (because that’s the only way they sell them) at a local warehouse here on Long Island. I designed the cute favor tags you see with my Cricut and attached a black and white straw to the bottle with a slim black ribbon, you guessed it, from my ribbon collection.

Love them!

60th Birthday Party Ideas

Now can we talk about this cake. What can I say about this cake but… Wow & Yum! Not only was this cake beautiful but it was sooooooo delicious! The artistry was flawless and the flavor heavenly. I ordered this cake from a local baker in Queens, NYC. Sabine from A Love for Cakes, baked and decorated this cake and we couldn’t get enough of it! The bottom cake was a chocolate cake with raspberry mousse filling and the top tier was Almond cake with Dulce de Leche Mousse. Oh. Em. Gee! I can’t even…  Get your cakes from her. I have been dreaming of this cake since the party! The cake topper I had purchased at an online small shop that is no longer in business. But it is an acrylic cake topper that you can find almost anywhere now.

The 60 year old birthday girl loved her party and so did I. It came out great. Just because you are celebrating someone’s 60th birthday, doesn’t mean you have to compromise in style and sparkle!

I hope these 60th Birthday Party Ideas inspire you to throw your own fabulous party soon. Enjoy!

UPDATE: This group is now full! 🥰 I’ve receiv UPDATE: This group is now full! 🥰 I’ve received so many messages from people interested. If you’ve already messaged me, I have your name and I will be in touch with you soon to let you know if there is space in the group. Unfortunately, not everyone will fit but perhaps you’d consider leading a group?⁣
⁣
If you are interested in leading a group, let me know. I’d hate for folks to not have a group. It’s super easy and I can send you more info.⁣

One of the areas I’m looking to grow in is creating regular rhythms of reflection and paying closer attention to myself and how God is moving within me and around me.⁣
⁣
If you would like to join me on the journey to create regular rhythms of reflection I’d love for you to join me!⁣
⁣
I’m starting a group for people who’d like to come together (via Zoom) to encourage, challenge and inspire one another once a month.⁣
⁣
Here’s what we will do:⁣
- We will start in January! 🎉⁣
- We will utilize Emily P. Freeman’s guided journal as a tool to create a format/structure of reflection. 📝⁣
- We will meet every month to encourage one another to keep going via Zoom.👩🏽‍💻⁣
- We will share what we are learning, what’s been challenging and what’s been working as we continue to practice rhythms of reflection.🗣⁣
- We will be gentle, generous and patient with ourselves and one another. 💖⁣
- We will inspire one another to keep going even if we’ve slacked off on our reflection time. ✨⁣
- We will have fun doing it! (This is my enneagram 7 wing talking) 😂⁣
- We will be limiting the group to a small # of people, just to keep it intimate. 👥⁣
⁣
I’ve had @emilypfreeman ’s guided journal “The Next Right Thing Guided Journal” for over a year and haven’t had the chance to start it. Now is a great time.⁣
⁣
THE JOURNAL: It isn’t a daily reflection tool. It helps you create Monthly & Weekly rhythms of reflection. It is a tool to help us pay attention or our lives, our selves and how God is moving in them.⁣
⁣
If you are interested in joining me OR would like more info send me a DM. I’d love for you to join me. ✨💕✨⁣

⁣
I’m learning there is great beauty and love to be experienced in the slow quiet work of God. That God doesn’t need bigger, better for others to experience the love of God.⁣
⁣
People need to encounter people who have encountered the Living God.⁣
⁣
May my life draw others to Christ through his great love. Starting with my first “neighbor,” my family.⁣

Love you @richvillodas Karis & Nathan! 💕⁣

Hope. 🕯⁣ ⁣ “One of the essential paradoxe Hope. 🕯⁣
⁣
“One of the essential paradoxes of Advent: that while we wait for God, we are with God all along, that while we need to be reassured of God’s arrival, of the arrival of our Homecoming, we are already at home. While we wait, we have to trust, to have faith, but it is God’s grace that gives us that faith. As with all spiritual knowledge, two things are true, and equally true, at once. The mind can’t grasp paradox; it’s the knowledge of the soul.” -Michelle Blake, The Tentmaker⁣
