I recognize it, the arrival of the first birthday My little one was a small tsunami of illusion, desire to celebrate and doubts. First things, that justified me, by going round and round during the weeks before how to plan the event, guests, what to do, how, where ... Help! I was heavier than a freighter on the road and the family, especially a couple and grandmother, suffered a woman on the verge of a birthday attack.
How did I resolve the matter?
Small deco
The station, already summer, allowed it to be done outdoors and there was no doubt about this point. Being passionate about fashion and decoration as I am, the decoration of the place and the table was one of the pillars. Searching and searching is always a treasure and in my case were a series of ideas focused on doing something clearly childish but thinking about the guests, mostly adults. I loved the idea of a balloon waterfall under the trees, in my case the choice was in gold color.
Guests
Deciding whether it is a small celebration just for the family or a big party at Great Gatsby is everyone's business. How will the little one have a better time? Well, possibly both ways, he is still very small and whatever happens his smile will park on his lips before the revelry and the company. The age and number of the guests is what should determine the food, the decoration or the invitations. A great idea for the latter is to make some funny montage with a picture of the baby thanks to programs like Picasa or Picnic and send it for mail: a cheap and convenient way to confirm attendance.
If the party is for the family, the sky is the limit! . If children of 1 year will also attend, it is recommended that it does not last more than 2 hours or else they will get tired
Small ideas
Prepare a themed party with the characters of your choice, fairy, princesses, butterflies or flowers if they are girls or superhero or pirates for children. I installed a play corner with blankets, gyms, stuffed animals and other fun for the little ones and another corner for adults with food and drinks.
Small menu
Let's not stress, let's be practical like Arguiñano and opt for a menu of childhood connotations without major complications. My favorite: Individual mini burgers, decorated sandwiches Are they not a great idea? cupcakes and fruits cut and dipped in chocolate.
I also had doubts with this table decoration, don't you love it? In Fiestas y cumpl, my reference website, you will find a thousand more ideas.
And most importantly enjoy the moment with your little one, a year of care and learning that culminates in the twelve most wonderful months of your life has passed.
