~ Birthday Party ~ Sarina's SWEET Second Birthday Party

I am so excited to share with you the pictures of my daughter's second birthday party!

I am currently in recovery mode from all the planning; I worked non-stop for the past month doing all the little projects, but it was all worth it because I just love how everything turned out.

THE DECOR...

While browsing Birthday Express for party supplies, I found the most adorable paper plates and cups from Yummi-land.  My daughter loves candies, so I thought the candy theme was perfect for her party.

It was so much fun to plan all the decor:  Lollipops, cupcakes, candies and gumballs.  I made columns of balloons in pink, red, blue and red.  The scenary for the Sweet Table consisted of two giant lollipops and a big cupcake.

THE DESSERT TABLE...

It looked so sweet!  I picked all the candies to coordinate with the party colors. There were swirl lollipops, jelly beans, Smarties, gummies, marshmallows, gumdrops, pink wafer cookies, cupcakes decorated with pink and blue frosting, coordinated the party circles I designed, Dubble Bubble pops wrapped in pink, raspberry and aqua blue tissue and cello paper, chocolate cups with strawberries and whipped cream...


The Cake {I am so proud of my cake; I took a Michaels fondant and gum paste decorating class a couple of weeks ago and this was my first cake and I loved it!} I did all the fondant bows, lollipops and candy decorations for thecake and cupcakes. 





And I can't forget about the little waffle-ice cream house with my baby's name and the number 2 on top, inspired by the Sweetopia logo. Adorable, isn't it?

THE PARTY FAVORS...

They were the most adorable mini-gumball machines. I purchased them at Beau-coup  and decorated them with an organza bow and a guest name tag.


 

THE FOOD TABLE...

At the Food table  there was veal sandwiches, chicken and beef lasagna, caesar salad, mini hot dogs, chicken nuggets, cheese and fruit trays.  I made Jello cups in 3 layers of strawberry, blueberry and raspberry  flavours to match the party colors.  

The clear plastic cutlery was wrapped in aqua blue paper napkins and decorated with napkin rings made with ribbons and the same party circles as the cupcakes. The spoons were also decorated with party circles.{I got a lot of compliments on my lasagna, several friends asked me for the recipe -  I will be posting it soon}

Have you tried this new brand of Water bottles?

 

 ENTERTAINMENT...

I always have to have a Piñata included in all my kids' parties. The kids love them! This time I made a lollipop one and it turned out really cute!  Again I asked Steve to entertain the kids. They love him and always have a lot of fun! I also got a CD especially for the occasion to play the Lollipop Song - It's my party! by the Supertarz Kids.

THE DRESS...

My daughter looked adorable in her pink hand-smocked dress. I had picked this dress last year thinking of her second birthday and everything just came together perfectly because without planning it the dress had the same party colors: pink with aqua blue and raspberry accents.  Most importantly she enjoyed her party, especially when we sang happy birthday to her! She blew the candles and she had lots of fun serving the cake! :)

I hope you enjoyed the pictures. Thanks for reading!

~Birthday Party~ Glamour Girl Ooh La La!! A Pink Poodle in Paris

"Ooh La La!  Julianna invites you to Paris to celebrate her 6^th birthday. Get ready to have your hair and makeup done and participate in a Fashion Show. There will be dancing, cake, pinata and lots of Fun!"

 

All the guests received their Boarding Passes Invitation to fly to Paris

with their itinerary and activities to do during their trip.

Seats were assigned, They just had to confirm their flight.

 The theme for the decor was a "A Pink Poodle in Paris" So Tres Chic! in Pink, Purple and Mint Green.

The Cake was Adorable!! It was made by Cakes by Anna in Woodbridge, Ontario. She did a fabulous job.

The Party Favors for the girls were Fashion Fairytale Barbie dolls, wrapped with clear cello paper, matching colors paper bows and pink poodle in paris name tags.  Since the boys favors didn't match with the theme, they were wrapped with tissue paper first then with clear paper.

Pink Poodle in Paris Party supplies were purchased at Birthday Express.

 I had lots of pink poodles decorating the room and of course tons of Balloons. A Gorgeous Balloon Centerpiece adorned the Sweet Table.  We had tons of sweets, fruits arrangements and the so yummy gummi-pots

To match the theme, I made a huge Eiffel Tower Piñata. I also purchased the Eiffel Tower, the High Heel Shoe and the Little Black Dress cookie cutters  from  Ann Clark Cookie Cutters. I got the sugar cookie recipe from the make more cookies blog. 

 

I had a huge hand-painted mural made to match the pink poodle in Paris theme. This was used as decor and photo backdrop for the little models. It was adorned it with balloon flowers all around.  I also got a directors chair, where the girls sat down to get their hair and make up done before heading to get ready to participate in the fashion show.  We had a clothing rack full of Stylish dresses and accessories, feather boas, hats and other hair accessories the little divas wore on the runway {all the dresses were designed and custom made by my mom and I, and I loved how they turn out}
The girls looked so cute and had much fun!!

Steve from Party with Steve kept the kids entertained with lots of participation games.
 I highly recommend hiring Steve for your kids' party.

~Birthday Party~ Jasmine and Aladdin ~ A Magical party in the Enchanted City of Agrabah

Well since Princess Jasmine couldn't come to my daughter's 4th birthday party, my daughter insisted that she make an appearance at her 5th birthday bash.   And I absolutely loved how this party turned out!   I had so much fun planning everything from the invitations to hiring the right entertainers.

 I used feathers and rhinestones to decorate the invitations, I wanted them to have a magical feel. I wrapped them in clear cello paper and tied with a bow and a tag with

the names of the guests.  

 Jasmine, aladdin, Abu the Monkey, the Genie, jasmine's dad 'The Sultan of Agrabah', her pet Tiger Rajah, and Lago (jafar's parrot); they were all present in the birthday party. 

 

The Party favors were Jasmine and Aladdin mugs that I purchased at the Disney Store, wrapped them in clear cello paper and tied with paper ribbon bows that I made in matching colors. (Instructions on how to make them will be available soon).  

We decorated the room with ballon arches and columns in aqua, purple, orange and gold.

If you read my post about my daughter's 4th Birthday party, you will notice that it is the same castle that I used as Cinderella's Castle, but I transformed it into a Middle Eastern Castle by adding the gold toppers. 

I couldn't find any piñata match the theme so I went ahead and tried to make one myself. I made Aladdin's Magic Lamp. I think it turned out so cute. This was my first piñata; since then I am making them all myself. It was so much fun to make.  And it also worked out as centerpiece for the Sweet Table.

 As for the entertainers, Zan Zar the Magician and Princess Jasmine from fantasy fables were fabulous!

Isn't she cute?

~Birthday Party~ A Precious Party for a Pretty Princess

Since I am in the party planning mood again I thought it would be fun to share some pictures of my oldest daughter 4th birthday party. I think this was when my obsession with pretty parties really started.

My mom helped me to do all the decor for the party.  We did a Balloon Arch over the sweet table with matching satin pastel balloons in pink, blue, yellow and gold.

We had a Castle and life-sized princesses made of Styrofoam that we used for background

 and room decor. 

The Party Favors were adorable princess blankets that I purchased online at the Disney Store, then wrapped with cello paper and tied with bows that we made with matching colors paper ribbon.  

The cake was made by my friend's uncle, and he did an amazing job, I gave him a Cinderella doll and he dressed her up in a beautiful gown made out of cake. 

I did fruit arrangements using skewers and cookie cutters.

Of course Cinderella came to the party as well, she sang, read stories and played with the kids...She was fabulous and she came from Fantasy Fables.



My daughter loved her party and all the kids had blast!
