A Bright & Colorful 30th: Customizing Milestone Birthdays in Style

Milestone birthdays deserve more than just cake and candles. Turning 30 is about stepping into a new chapter with confidence and joy. When my friend and colleague, renowned wedding photographer Jenny Wagner, asked us to design her 30th birthday, she had one request: make it pink and colorful.

Jenny’s Vision at a Maryland Winery

Jenny chose a beautiful Maryland winery as the backdrop for her milestone and a way to support another local business. She envisioned her closest friends and family coming together to unwind. With hot pink as her star color, we created a playful yet elevated design that reflected her happy and bright personality. Pops of color, custom styling, and thoughtful details transformed the space into a celebration as radiant as she is.

Designing a Custom Celebration

Every element was personalized, from floral accents to the overall atmosphere. The goal was not just to style a party but to create an experience that celebrated Jenny’s creativity and spirit. As a fellow pink lover, I was up for the challenge and more! It was a perfect way to end the Summer and say hello to her 30s.

Captured Through Her Lens

As a wedding photographer, Jenny spends her days capturing life’s most meaningful moments. For her own celebration, she documented the day herself, preserving every detail and every smile in a way only she could. All pictures in this blog are a courtesy of Jenny and will live in our hearts forever! As a fellow artist, my biggest joy is to see another creative truly use their talent for their special moments in life.

Jenny’s bright and bold 30th was more than a party. It was a reflection of her artistry and a reminder that milestone celebrations should tell your story in a way that feels true to you. Life is meant to be lived fully, with your heart reflected in every detail that feels authentically you.
