Some Bunny Is One is the sweetest spring first birthday — bunnies, carrots, and garden pastels.

This guide walks you through it step by step, from picking the time to the last goodie bag.

Follow the steps in order and the party practically plans itself.

Some Bunny is One Birthday Party Planning

Nine steps, one adorable party.

Step 1: Start with the Basics

The basics first — when and where.

Pick the Perfect Time

Pick a two-hour window around her best mood — usually right after the morning nap.

Late morning into lunch is the sweet spot for one-year-olds.

Where’s the Party?

Home and backyard keep it cosy and affordable; a hall buys space and easy cleanup.

Decide early — the venue decides how much décor you need.

Step 2: Make It Magical with Bunny Details

Now the bunny magic.

Invitations

A bunny invitation with “Some Bunny Is One” and her name sets the garden tone.

Send them three to four weeks ahead.

Decorations

Think garden party: gingham, carrot-orange pops, bunny cutouts, and jars of spring flowers.

A bunny-ear garland over the main table is the signature piece.

Step 3: Fun Bunny Snacks & Activities

Feed them, then keep them busy.

Food & Drinks

Bunny snacks: carrot-shaped treats, “garden veggie” cups, lemonade, and bunny-tail cotton candy.

Label everything with little garden signs — the names do half the theming.

Activities

A bubble patch, “pin the tail on the bunny” for the grown-ups, and a soft play corner for the babies.

Keep the schedule loose — at one, wandering IS the program.

Step 4: Dress the Part – Adorable Bunny-Themed Outfits

Outfits — the photos depend on them.

For the Birthday Bunny

The birthday girl wears bunny ears with a tutu, or a “Some Bunny Is One” onesie — comfort first, cute second.

Bring a backup outfit for after the smash cake.

For the Guests

Bunny-ear headbands for guests make every photo instantly on-theme.

Put a basket of ears by the entrance.

For the Family

Matching family tees or soft pastels keep the group photos coordinated.

Step 5: Final Touches to Hop into Fun

The details that make it feel finished.

Set the Scene

Do the big scene-setting the day before: backdrop, garland, table settings.

Morning-of should be food and photos only.

Wrap Up the Details

Final sweep: balloons inflated, playlist queued, camera charged, wipes everywhere.

Then pour yourself a coffee — you are ready.

Step 6: Last-Minute Prep

Last-minute prep, the calm kind.

Get Everything Ready

Lay out the outfits, pack what the venue needs, and put the cakes where little hands cannot reach.

Goodie Bags

Assemble goodie bags two days ahead: bunny cookies, bubbles, and a carrot-shaped treat.

Tie with gingham ribbon and a thank-you tag.

Step 7: Sweet Bunny Treats: Cake and Smash Cake

The cakes — plural, because she gets her own.

Main Cake

The main cake is for the guests and the photos: white frosting, a bunny topper, maybe carrots piped around the edge.

Design Inspiration:

Garden cakes, carrot cakes with cream-cheese frosting, and bunny-face cakes all work — pick the one your baker does best.

Smash Cake for the Birthday Girl

Her smash cake is a small, soft version — light on sugar, heavy on photo potential.

Design Tips:

Keep the smash cake’s colours pale so her outfit (and face) survive the photos; add bunny ears as the topper.

Step 8: Hop Into Action: Party Setup Time

Setup time — start about two hours before.

Setting the Stage

Backdrop first, then tables, then the small stuff — in that order, always.

Snack & Drink Prep

Chill the drinks, set out the shelf-stable snacks, and keep perishables for the last 30 minutes.

Step 9: Let’s Hop to It! Day-of Fun

Party day — hop to it!

Welcoming Your Guests

Music on, the ears basket by the door, and someone assigned to opening it — you will be holding the birthday bunny.

Party Flow

Play, eat, cake, smash, wind down. Two hours, no rushing — that is the whole flow.

Pro Tips for Seamless Party Planning

Photograph the setup before guests arrive, put one adult on photo duty, and freeze a slice of cake for her second birthday.
