Birthday Party Details

As promised here are my daughter's third birthday party pictures. Her birthday party went very well except for a few hickups, but everyone had a real fun day and I guess in the end thats all that matters.

Since we had over 70 guests we had a formal sit down dinner at a restaurant. The place was huge so decorating it wasn't very easy. We set up the candy buffet and the cake cutting tables outside under fairy lights, lanterns and pom-poms and it looked beautiful, but sadly it started to rain and we had to move and setup everything (in 15 minutes) inside just before the guests arrived. Never trusting Melbourne weather again. So the tables couldn't be set up exactly like I had planned and the pom-poms couldnt be hung exactly on top of the candy buffet but all in all the place looked pretty amazing and the kids just loved the candy buffet.

I used Cristina Re's paper for the invites and went along with the same design for the rest of the decorations too. I also used personalised stamps and printed Cristina Re's design on the envelopes. I asked the guests to come dressed in the theme colours (green and blue) and almost all of them did and it looked great.

Here are some details:

Candy Buffet

We are celebrating our daughter's third birthday in a couple of weeks. She is already three, but we didn't celebrate at that time as my mum was planning to visit us, she lives overseas and is finally here now. Miss 3 had some amazing suggestions--not (like having a dora themed party) but we finally agreed on a colour-themed (a bit of me) butterfly(a bit of her) party. The colours are green and blue (pastels). We would be having a candy buffet and these are the images I'm using as inspiration.
