Project 1st Birthday

Project 1st Birthday

First off, I cannot believe how fast time has flown by. I always agreed with people when they said that she will grow  up quickly but it just seems too fast. I mean Saya baby is nearly 1 years old! Well since her 1st birthday is literally right around the corner, I need to get a move on planning her 1st birthday bash. I know it is going to be a bit difficult planning this with a rambunctious 9 month old moving around but I have faith that I can get this party as close to what I want. :)


Here's what I have come up with so far...

Theme: Cupcake


Colors: Multi colors and probably multi patterns


Guests: Immediate family, those with young kids and our closest friends


Food: Finger foods and tons of cupcakes and other handheld snacks




And it all starts with the invitations...


So far I love this invitation from LollipopPrints on Etsy:

The colors are nice and bright and the multiple patterns are exactly what I have envisioned. And of course the cupcake helped too!

Because we have not had pro pictures done of Saya since her 1st week of life, we don't have any "great" pictures to be used for these invitations. To solve that, I have recruited my cousin, a photographer just getting in the business, to take the pictures. Because Miss Saya has to look all cute for her pictures, I decided to buy this cute cupcake themed tu-tu style dress from Carter's:

As of today, I will be pairing this super cute hair bow with a cotton white headband, specially made for us by MorganLaneBoutique from Etsy:

Have you seen any cute cupcake themed items out on the web? How about 1st birthday ideas? Have you recently held a child's birthday party? Share your details, por favor! :)


This is a work in progress so stayed tuned as I "build" this party!
