While
we absolutely adore doing weddings and corporate events…last year we had sooooo
much fun assisting in the one of the biggest milestones in any family’s life…
the first birthday! We met Ashley
through our membership with the Alamance Chamber at a breakfast before hours
meeting. We quickly begin searching
locations that wouldn’t break the bank because we know their house would host
the number of guests attending.
After
securing the Coleman Barn for the festivities we started looking into catering
companies, entertainment and of course decorations. Creating a “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star”
themed birthday parties for Natalie was a personal highlight of my summer. Seeing this bundle of joy (super happy baby)
attend our monthly planning meetings brightened my day. We got to watch her grow up throughout her
first year.
Traditionally
the first birthday party is really for the parents who survive saying “we
did
it… we made it through the first year and she survived….lol” wasn’t really the
case for this little angel. But that
didn’t mean the parents didn’t celebrate.
We had a fabulous catered meal by Dickie Do’s and an open bar to cheers
to all of the great memories thus far.
They shared stories, laughed, opened gifts and spent time with out of
town family.
One
of the memories that stood out to us that day…was when her dad carried down the
walkway to go and look at the water that we’ve sent several brides down on their
wedding day…I paused and said “wouldn’t it be amazing if this place was still
open and we can hold her wedding here in 30 years when they let her start
dating….”
