Aleina's First Birthday Preparation - Where Tos?

Since I've got the idea of what to do, what to decorate, etc it's time for me to know how and where. Of course, with the help of google I am now have the will do execute all of it.

Below are my Where-To List for the party:

1. Where to get the catering?

Before I decide to which caterer I should choose, I've consider reading forums first where I can find good reviews based of the mummies's previous experience; first hand review from your friend is still much better. Anyway, well I can say that all experiences of one mummy to another is not always be the same. Below are the lists of catering I've found out that price is reasonable (for as low as $6, $8 you can find different variety of food from buffet to High Tea, etc)


2. Cake

Cake is one of the most important part of a birthday party where the celebrant can make a wish and blow the candle, well at this young age of course the celebrant cannot make a wish. I've almost opt for a design and customize my own cake according to my selected theme. Below are the list I've found for the list of cake/bake shop:


I've tried Cake Avenue during my baby's baptism last year. Their cake tastes good as well as their design. Most of our guests truly like our cake and got a good review. This time, I would like to try different bake shop and I've made an inquiry whether they do customize a cake according to my (Disney) Minnie Mouse theme, unfortunately they don't do accept orders for Disney theme due to copyright issue.

3. Cupcakes

I first thought of getting a cupcake with Sweetest Moments as I already liked the price and their design ($3.50 each with your desired theme cuztomization). But my friend, suggested that they could help me bake a cupcakes for me so I also agreed with that idea. Then suddently strikes me something like, why I cannot bake my own cupcakes? So I am planning to make it myself but I need to try it myself first lol. Coz I dont have any experience of baking.

4. Decorations

I was really amazed of almost of the designs shared by other mummies at Catch My Party http://catchmyparty.com/blog/free-pink-minnie-mouse-birthday-party-printables-from-printabelle Decoration ideals are almost complete as well as gathering and choosing which materials and crafts should i buy. I bought my paper and other craft materials at Art Friends.

I already gathered some designs and decorations. My to do list are the following:

  • Backdrop of DIY Photobooth
  • Wall Decorations
  • Sign Door Decoration
  • DIY HighChair Decoration
  • DIY Cake Stand Decoration
  • DIY Pinata
  • DIY Shirt Printing
 I'm just asking myself, can I really do all these things? *sigh* Will update most probably after the party on July....
