First Birthday Party Planner: 1st Birthday Checklist, 6-Week Countdown + Keepsake. A day, not a wedding.
A twenty-page planning kit for the first birthday. A 6-week countdown, low-effort theme ideas that are brand-aligned, guest planning, food and cake decisions, the smash-cake-or-not page, a photo shot list with non-cliché options, memory-keeper pages (a letter to baby at one, a family quote-book), and the day-of timeline. Designed so the birthday feels like a milestone, not a stress-induced production.
Instant download. Print at home on A4 or US Letter. Your receipt and re-download link arrive by email.
Look inside
Pages from the file you'll download, not a mock-up.
The first birthday on the internet looks like a wedding. It is not a wedding. It is the kid turning one, with cake on their face and a few people who love them in the room.
This kit is for the version where the day feels like a milestone without you turning into a logistics manager. Six-week countdown. Theme ideas that take an afternoon. Guest planning. Food. Photos that are not the same Instagram shot everyone else takes.
What’s inside
Twenty pages, fillable:
- A note before you start. Permission to keep it small.
- 6-week countdown. One page per week with the right amount of planning for that point.
- Theme ideas. Five low-effort, brand-aligned options. Pick one. Stop.
- Guest list + invite tracker.
- Food + cake. The standard “what we serve” list, with allergy notes.
- Smash-cake-or-not. A decision page.
- Photo shot list. With non-cliché options.
- Memory keepers. A letter to baby at one, a family quote-book template.
- Day-of timeline. So no one has to ask “when is X.”
- A final note.
