Another 1derful ONE!!

On the 5th of July, a day and many years after his father's birthday, our Munchkin turned one. As the 5th fell on a Thursday, we celebrated on Saturday, the 7th of July. 07.07 nice right... Well, we went for the Prince theme as he is our little prince..

As we did for my daughter, we celebrated his 1st birthday @ Subang National Golf Club or KGNS (Kelab Golf Negara Subang) located in SS7, Kelana Jaya. We are not members at this club but their hall/ballroom can be rented at a non member rate. They've added off white cloth blinds for the windows and it's a nice touch. We chose the President Hall as it suited all our needs. You can look them up at http://www.subanggolf.com/.

We went back to Choffles because as far as I am concerned Mr. David and his crew are the best. They are at the Sunway outlet. Not only do they deliver what they promise, they give you more than that and it's to your liking.. Check them out at http://www.choffles.com

As always, when you are looking for something you can't find it. We searched for my boy's outfit at Wonder Tots but did not find anything suitable. This was where we found my daughter's dress for her birthday.  In the end, to cut a really long search short, we bought his shirt, vest, bow tie and little black shiny shoes at Lovely Lace. We went to the branch at Empire Shopping Gallery. As for our little girl, we got her dress at Party Princess.

Hmmm...what else? Invitations? It was difficult to get ready made invitations that I liked so once again my husband created our son's invitation card. Because we had limited time- we were flying back to Sandakan, the people at the printers, charged us double the price. Unfortunately, we had no choice but to accept. The best part was they took 3 days. A rip off? Maybe but like I said we just didn't want to prolong the whole thing. 

Balloon Buzz at Section 14 is THE place to go for decorations. They were fabulous. They even came and fixed the deco for us at the hall. We spent more than RM1000 at their shop. A bit on the excessive side some may say, but the next time our little munchkin will celebrate this grandly will be when he's 21! Ask for Mr Hugh or Hew not sure of the spelling, he was great.

As our little Cupcake is bigger, we decided to get a clown. We hired through Balloon Buzz. They have different packages. You can choose either a clown or a magician. RM45o for 2 hours. You do not get to speak to the clown beforehand, you can only liaise through Balloon Buzz.  

We chose the Big Rajah Caterers. (http://www.thebigrajah.com.my/) The person we liased with for our daughter's birthday function was Mr. Paul  but he has left the company. Mr Kuldip was in charge this time round. I have to say, he was very efficient and if you told him you needed something he would somehow make it happen. The food as usual was tasty. This time, we made sure we ate. I think that it's important to taste the food you spent a fortune on. ha,ha

We used the invitation card design as the cover for the bulletin. The bulletin was for songs, the bible passage, and a short poem dedicated to our son.

We also hires a professional photographer from JAC Photography. They are a group of photographer's who specialise in all areas of photography. Our photographer's name was Jonathan and I would definitely recommend him. Their basic package starts at RM850 for four hours and includes a session of portraiture. Check them out here.

We loved the outcome of our efforts as we were with our daughter's party. We're glad however that we don't have to plan anymore grand birthday parties soon..I hope. Our wallets are too : )
