Birthday? Baby Shower? Hens Party? At Katie J Design & Events, we have everything you need to throw an amazing celebration for any occasion. We print in Australia and ship Australia wide, plus to the US and New Zealand.
Here is our ultimate guide to throwing a party, with tips and tricks for every part of planning, from picking your theme to decorations, food, games and saving those special memories.
If you’re ready to host a celebration, the first step is choosing a party theme. Your theme ties together food, favours and decorations.
At Katie J Design & Events, we have over 300 party themes to choose from. They’re perfect for any occasion, including children’s birthday parties, 18th, 21st & 50th milestone birthdays, baby showers & naming ceremonies, christenings & baptisms, engagements & anniversaries, and hens parties & bridal showers.
When you’re browsing our themes, think about the celebrant. For kids, consider favourite characters or hobbies. For adults, lean into personal style, glamorous, rustic, cheeky, we have a theme for everyone. You can also explore simple styling wins with our balloon and banner styling ideas to level up your party look.
Here are a few examples:
Our Boys Campout Party Theme is perfect for a kid who loves the outdoors.
This Rustic Timber & Baby’s Breath theme is beautiful for a baby shower.

Once you have your theme, look at your party space and pick two or three key colours to repeat. Tablecloths and balloons are quick wins that make a big impact.
Our party themes come with banners, posters & bunting you can use for decorating a party space. All are printed on high quality, durable, waterproof material. They handle spills and messes and can be used outside.
They’re also customisable with the celebrant’s name and details like the occasion, age or date.
See our guide to decorating and hanging party banners for hanging tips and a simple banner and balloon stand.

Party banners also make brilliant photo backdrops. Here’s our guide to capturing amazing memories with DIY birthday photo backgrounds.
Flag bunting is super versatile. See our tips for decorating with flag bunting around doorways, across entrances, along the front of a dessert table or layered on tabletops to frame the cake.
