Birthday Planning: Part 1

In just a month and 2 weeks from now my sweet Chloe will be turning 1 years old!! I honestly cant believe how quickly this year went by, a part of me doesn't want to believe it but there is no denying it, my baby is turning 1! Time to do some serious birthday planning!

The overall theme of Chloe's party is a garden party so lots of flowers, bright colors, balloons ect... We would love to have the party in my Grandma's gorgeous backyard so hopefully the weather will be perfect and sunny for an outside party.

 Here is what I have planned so far!

When: Saturday, June 16th 

Where: Grandma's house

Theme: Garden party

Time: Afternoon

Menu: Small sandwiches, fruit, crackers, chocolate covered strawberries, different kinds of candy, lemonade, homemade punch, water with lemons, coffee and tea.

Invitation: I will either try to make one on PicMonkey using a picture similar to this

Cake: I am so excited about Chloe's cake because I found the most beautiful one on Pinterest. I am hoping to have one made very similar to these two - 

On this cake I love the colors and how they go from light to dark on both the inside and out!

So these are my ideas so far for Chloe's first birthday, I still have a lots to plan but I'm getting there! I will be sure to keep you all updated along the way!

  3. The first year really does go by so fast (it goes even faster with the second!) It looks like Chloe's party is going to be absolutely divine - pretty, festive and wonderfully whimsical x
