When your birthday celebrations are hailed as the most glamorous and decadent society event of the year, it's easy to imagine they were the result of a lifetime's preparations.
But it really seems the case for aristocratic model Lady Lola Bute after she revealed she started planning for her memorable 25th birthday bash when she was still a child.
Lady Lola hosted the extravagant shindig in April last year at Mount Stuart House, the family seat since the 18th Century.
Society guests including Sienna Miller, Poppy Delevingne and Princess Olympia of Greece joined her for an outrageous festival-themed party.
Lady Lola, who wore a 90s-inspired silver micro-dress and was pictured dancing seductively with Dutch actor boyfriend Parker Van Noord, tells the May issue of ELLE magazine: ‘I've literally been planning this party since I was five. My mum would dread getting stuck on a ski lift with me because it's all I talk about. Most girls are thinking about their wedding. I was like, "I don't want to share the attention with anyone".'
The theme was ‘How Lola Can You Go?' and she must had had a vivid childhood imagination judging by the pictures Lady Lola later posted on social media which immediately caused a viral sensation.
Giant inflatable mushrooms and tepees implausibly sprouted throughout the vast baronial mansion on the Isle of Bute.
There was techno music and flashing lights, dining tables groaning with lobsters, oysters and local beef, a marching band of pipers and fireworks lighting up the skies above the Firth of Clyde.
Lady Lola had planned her outrageous 25th birthday bash for many years.

Hollywood stars mingled with fashion icons and royalty sipping champagne through straws straight from the bottle with the whole weekend extravaganza described as Ibiza colliding with Saltburn, the arch movie satire about the debauchery of the upper classes.
‘I love an occasion,' she told the magazine, admitting that she has always loved to play a character rather than herself ‘because I think I wasn't quite sure who I was, honestly, until recently'.
She recalls telling her headmaster on her first day at school that she wanted to be Cinderella rather than Lola.
Nevertheless, she was surprised with the media frenzy the bash received: ‘My mum was like, "I think we should say no Instagram or social media over the weekend". I was like, "Don't be ridiculous. No one cares". I don't know what happened, but I went to sleep on Sunday night and woke up on Monday, and it was everywhere.'
The party's hedonism was in stark contrast to recent tragedies which have befallen her family.
In 2019, Lady Lola's then-boyfriend died by suicide when she was 19: ‘I was completely broken.
I just remember thinking to myself, "I can either better myself and my life and other people's lives by going on this journey as a healing process, or I can completely let it ruin my life and destroy me, which I know he wouldn't have wanted".'
She started to heal by founding her charity, Eternity Movement, to address the stigma around suicide, mental health issues, and addiction.
