A few months before my oldest daughter turned three years old, she sat down to watch her first ever movie. One viewing of “Finding Nemo” later and an obsession quickly grew. In no time, she began to call herself, “Dory” (the larger fish) and her baby sister, “Nemo” (the baby sized fish). Fast forward a few months later when it came time to plan their joint birthday party (birthdays only two weeks apart)… and the Nemo\/Dory theme was a no-brainer!<\/p>\n

Wanting to host your own Nemo & Dory inspired children’s party? Here is how I did it!<\/p>\n

I wanted it clear the minute my guests opened their invitation that a Nemo & Dory party was in the works. A quick Etsy search brought me to an adorable digital invitation that I was able to customize to my liking. (Be sure to check out “MaluhiaPrints<\/a>” if you desire to create one for yourself!)<\/p>\n

ATTIRE<\/h3>\n

Trying my best to incorporate the Nemo and Dory theme whenever feasible, I decided to quickly make my girls some matching dresses.

Not only can you make them totally customizable to your party theme, but the entire project took all of 20 minutes per dress).<\/p>\n

MENU<\/h3>\n

When planning my menu, I wanted to make sure that catchy phrases could be connected to the theme. I’d be lying if I said I patented these cute phrases all on my own. In fact, just like with every one of my parties, I scoured Pinterest<\/a> to aid in my planning.<\/p>\n
