Isla + Siena turn one!













Last month I had the pleasure of attending a very special (and very stylish) 1st Birthday party.  The party was in celebration of a year of adorable twins Isla and Siena.  The girls' mum is the talented Emma of Your Wedding Flowers, so there was no doubt this would be an impressive event.  The brief Emma gave for the girls invitations was simply 'pink and sparkly'.

I created pink and gold confetti invites that introduced the occasion with the line 'sparkle and shine its' birthday time!'  Each invite was double wrapped in fine gold twine and finished with a sparkly number 1.  To add extra sparkle to the occasion, pink envelopes were lined with gold glitter paper.  This set the theme perfectly and it was followed through with some Piccolo Studio glitter crowns, a two tiered glitter and pink cake, amazing cookies, cupcakes, meringues and chocolate coated oreos.

The cake table Emma decorated was nothing short of spectacular, large marquee letters of the girls initials made a huge impact, and it was all framed by the beautiful ivy that climbs on the outside of the building.  Of course pretty posies of pale pink flowers were scattered amongst the 
sweet treats to complete the picture.

The food was the highest standard party food for a children's party I've ever been to!  The event was held inside Cronulla's Old Library Restaurant, which never disappoints.  The champagne flowed, the food was abundant and the children were entertained by a beautiful birthday fairy!
