1st Birthday Party Planning

Hi all!

I only have a month to go before our little one turns a year old! Where did the time go? I seriously can't believe how fast the time is flying by. Needless to say, I am absolutely enjoying my motherhood!

On the other hand though, the last quarter of 2014 have been stressful to me. I was busy attending to my small online business, then the holiday season came and then we had a last minute decision to fly back here in Singapore to spend the holidays with dear hubby. The latter actually is what's making my birthday party planning a bit more of a challenge. I thought I still had enough time before THE big day but unfortunately, I have to do everything online. Thanks to the wonders of technology specifically Viber! Lol!

As early as September, I have been scouting and searching for party venues in the south. Zeb had his baptismal reception at Gerry's Grill in MOA so I was already iffy about having his first birthday party again in the same mall because not many resto have their private function rooms. I searched and searched and I always end up with nothing. It would be either too expensive or the location is not the ideal one. Finally, the day before our flight, I was able to book a venue which includes the catering as well. I will give you all the deets on my post-birthday party entry.

So far I am about 70% down with the party details. We already have the host/magician booked. The photo/video coverage plus the photobooth (which my dear sisters will be sponsoring) have been reserved as well. Now I'm busy with the loot bags, giveaways and food carts options then I'm done! The venue decor is also included in the package so I don't have to deal with that - yay!

If there are mommies out there who can share tips on a successful party planning, please do share. I wouldn't learning a thing or two so we'll be more prepared for baby number two! (ooh! that sounded great!)

Thanks for dropping by! 

Ciao!
