From day one I began a little Sweetheart theme with Josephine… from her newborn shoot to her birth announcement… and since she arrived 2 days after Valentine’s Day… it was fitting.
So I carried that theme on into her 1st Birthday celebration… but, with a little twist. I decided to not go with the classic pink and red color scheme, bu with a springy aqua/mint, peach/coral, and grey scheme. I was beyond blessed by the talented and wonderful friends in the industry who came on board to make her party truly amazing! From vintage rentals, to a ridiculous dessert display, to gorgeous florals, and perfectly crafted tags and banners… it came out better than I had even envisioned it!
First the guest of honor… our lovely little girl!

Great appetizer idea…

Pinterest!
Sandee did such a fabulous job of pulling everything together! We had amazing vintage tables and props from
Found, some of my own jars and platters, along with her Apothecary Jars, platters, and accessories.
Paper poms which now hang in a cute cluster above Josephine’s crib were purchased off Etsy

I LOVED how the little ruffle cake turned out!

I will be taking all the sweet words and notes people wrote for JoJo and making a “Subway” style word art poster for her room.
And…cake time!
Yeah, she tried to pick up the whole cake…
Love this shot Derek captured.
It was such a great day spent with family and friends celebrating our little sweetheart! Thank you SO much to the wonderful women who helped me make this happen, and to our awesome family and friends for helping clean it all up!
