I always tell my husband that if I am not doing what I'm doing now, my dream job is to be a party planner or events stylist. I love entertaining people and making things pretty. Throwing dinner parties and brunches at home really excite me. This entry is dedicated to this passion turned hobby. My challenge now is my daughter Sofia's first birthday party.
The first task is to finalize the basic details : Date, Venue, Time, Number of Invitees. - CHECK! I already decided on all this. I can share that the venue will be in (where else?) Cintai Corito's Garden, Balete, Batangas. I just think it's the most practical thing to do so I can focus my budget on other things like food, decorations, etc.
The next task is to decide on a THEME. I love this part. It took me awhile to decide on what theme would best fit Sofia's celebration. I want it to be feminine, fancy and dainty just like her :) After a lot of research and consultation (party blogs/magazines), I chose to go with a SHABBY CHIC AFTERNOON TEA PARTY! Here are my pegs:
The chalkboard menu is brilliant for the theme
I love the bubbles on glass with ribbons and antique keys
I love how the setting is very shabby and uncoordinated yet stylish and classy at the same time
Dainty table setting
I love the different fabric strips made into a nice, feminine backdrop. I can't wait to go to Divisoria (wholesale fabric market) and go shopping for Fabric scraps
