🧒 Kids’ Birthday Party Trends for 2025
Evite’s kids’ trends are all about hands-on fun, customization, and memorable experiences:
-
Customization stations where kids decorate their own gear like tote bags or denim jackets
-
Animal-centric fun (think puppy pens or zoo-inspired themes)
-
The whole vibe is playful and interactive to make parties feel more personal and unforgettable.
🍒 Adult Birthday Party (and General) Trends for 2025
-
Mon Cheri / Fruit-Forward Themes – cherries and vibrant fruit motifs bringing fresh colour and flavor to décor and invites.
-
Soda, or in Canada, Pop Soirees – retro soda/Pop-shop (remember those stores?) nostalgia with classic pop fountains and playful style.
-
Garden Dinner Parties – alfresco vibes with fairy lights, gingham, and nature-inspired tablescapes.
-
Cake-Centred Celebrations – making the cake the main event, from edible florals to artistic abstracts.

At-Home Café Gatherings – cozy coffee and pastry hangouts instead of big blowouts.

For big birthdays (30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80., 90, 100), from retro throwbacks to personalised milestones.
