Of course, we had to commemorate the joyous occasion with a par-tay, and what a glorious, magical, amazing and beautiful day it was. Since Reese's birthday landed on a Saturday this year, the actual day was the perfect day to celebrate with our family and friends. And, thank goodness for the beautiful weather we had so that we could enjoy being outside--otherwise we probably would have been a bit cramped in the house.
I enjoyed every minute of planning this soiree and I was just thrilled with the way everything turned out, so of course, I'm going to have to share some of the details.
These adorable invites were an inspired by a design I found online, but I'm totally into doing my own invites because I can do them exactly how I want them and a lot cheaper! So, with a little help from JP, Snapio (and Illustrator, of course!), the end result couldn't have been cuter!
You are probably starting to see a trend here of all things pink (and green). I just think gerbera daisies are the perfect fresh flower for a little girl's day. And I was able to reuse the paper lanterns from our wedding to add a little flare.
I decided to go with cupcakes rather than a cake, because they are just too easy to deal with, and you can't beat the tasty ones SAMs makes. Then I went one more step and ordered these ADORABLE toppers from threekidspartyshop on Etsy. I have to say, I'm a bit obsessed with Etsy right now and it was the perfect go-to spot to put some personalized touches on this party.
Of course, the birthday girl had to have her own little smash cake too, and she loved every minute of it (pics and video to come). Threekidspartyshop did this topper too, and it was just perfect!
