A Special Way to Celebrate

Funny Story: The Twins' Baby Dedication was cancelled due to a leaky (ok ... a collapsing) ceiling.  The end to the story is that it was rescheduled for their birthday!  Who doesn't want to stand in front of the whole church and show off in pretty dresses ON your birthday?!?!

Breakfast at Tiffany's 1st Birthday Party

I knew I wanted to do a Breakfast at Tiffany's birthday party for the twins pretty much the moment I found out I was pregnant with twin girls.  Ok, after I digested the news of having 2 babies at one time.  But I definitely knew Breakfast at Tiffany's was going to be their 1st birthday theme before they were born.  Then, I randomly was on vacation in NYC over the summer and happened to find the sweetest employee who gave me a bunch of Tiffany's bags and jewelry bags.  Nobody knew the decorations were from Tiffany's in New York ... but I did.  And that made it all the more special.

Party decorations were so fun to put together.  Balloons, diamonds, Tiffany's bags, and pictures of my sweet girls. 

Photo Credit for the pictures we used in decorations (not the pictures we took at the actual party) go to Cory + Casey Photography.  Thank you for capturing our sweet baby girls in their party clothes for their 1 year pictures.

Our cake and cupcakes were provided by Kara Clayton at Sweetly Chic Cake Boutique.
