Bumble Bee 1st Birthday Party

On this past Sunday, I decorated a bumble bee themed 1st birthday party for Tatum, the cute lil daughter of two of my friends from college. They had it at the Jelly Bean Jungle in Marlton, NJ so the place is already decorated but mommy wanted to tie in the theme of Tatum's big day!  Since we were doing a bumble bee theme which is traditionally just black and yellow, I wanted to make it a little girly so we decided to tie in a little pink. 

Photog and good friend of the couple, Micheal Derek was there snapping pics of everything and I cant wait to see how great his professional pictures turn out!  He also took the picture of Tatum that I used for the magazine cover.  But for now, you'll have to check out the ones I took on my lil digital camera....which dont really do the party justice....lol
Guest were greeted as they walked in by this cute magazine cover with the birthday girl on it! :)

I had a lot of fun making everything for this party! Everyone had a blast!

VENDOR RECOMMENDATION:  After having the magazine cover created, I used www.posterbrain.com to have it blown up.  I highly recommend them if you ever need to have a picture enlarged to poster size. The site is user friendly, prices are great, delivery is quick, and customer service is awesome!

  2. Words cannot express how grateful I was to have you decorate our baby’s party..she may not realize it now, but this was truly fabulous and befitting for the princess that she is to us, as well as the rest of our family and friends. Your attention to detail, and creativity and innovation is a gift from God, and I am confident that all of your hard work, leap out on faith and vision will be rewarded multiple times in multiple ways..just know that you helped create a memory in my life that I will never forget.

    If you ever need a recommendation for future events or ventures, you know who to come to..

    With Love, Harold, Danielle, and Tatum Booker
