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.

Delicious Birthday Cake By Kellie of Sweet Treats


Candy Buffet

Sweet Treats

We are getting cupcakes made from Kellie of Sweet Treats for my daughter's birthday party which is on this weekend. Kellie had us over for sampling of different flavours and boy was I in for a sweet surprise. Not only did the cupcakes look divine, they also tasted great and we had a hard time choosing. My daughter loved the butterfly themed cakes and made us sing "Happy Birthday" as she thought it was her birthday today.

Also a huge thanks to all of you who left sweet (last time I'm using this word in this post, promise) comments and wishes for me, am feeling much better now. I have loads to do for Miss 3's party but will try to update as often as I can!
