  2. Wow this post is fabulous and these themed birthday bash ideas seem just perfect to me for hosting a chic party for my own son’s first birthday party in one of these styles. But instead of a house party, I would prefer booking the best outdoor rental Los Angeles venues. Can’t wait to start the planning!
