Parisian Patisserie

Bienvenue chéri! Renée Marguerite’s baptism and celebration was nothing short of magnifique! We’re actually not surprised because with a mommy that has her own event styling company called Little Matters, we’re most definitely sure it’s going to be a grand day! Plus the fact that Den Llanos Dee Photography is part of this fête makes us even more excited! So go ahead, enjoy this pretty patisserie!

What we’re digging:

  • That dessert set up! We could almost feel like we’re on an actual small parisian town singing, “Bon jour! There goes that baker with his tray like always!”
  • Those mini Eiffel Towers all over the place! Definitely saying “oui” over and over again!
  • The baptism candles were not only cute in design but function as well!
  • And all the cakes and sweets! We can never have enough desserts and in this case, we won’t have a problem! Oh the meringue tower and macaron overload!

    Rainbow Rush

    Have you ever really seen what’s at the end of the rainbow, or even wondered what you’ll find there? Well, thanks to La Belle Fete Weddings & Events and Shutter Panda, we have! It’s not exactly a pot of gold, but prepare your sparkly eyes because what we’re about to show you is much better–so much better!!! Remember Sage’s super cute pre-birthday shoot? Now we have her unicorn-themed first birthday that is all sorts of dainty and adorable, and we could probably daydream about it for hours! The colors, the clouds, the sparkles, oooh come join us as we dream, dream away!

    What we’re digging:

    • The rainbow arc on the stage! Were you able to see it up close? Lovin’ that pastel ruffled color combo! Snaps for Amante Fleurs!
    • That too-pretty-to-eat cake made by Regine’s Home-baked Goodies! Come to think of it, we love all those sweet unicorn treats–from the cookies and cake pops, to the cupcakes!
    • We are also floating in rainbow land because of that dreamy dessert bar set up by La Belle Fete Weddings & Events complete with a unicorn floral frame! Well, how about that!

      The Wilderness Explorer

      A wilderness explorer is a friend to all, be a plant or fish or tiny mole! Sound familiar? Why, yes! That line is the motto of The Wilderness Explorers from the movie Up! Almost everyone loved that animated film and chubby little cutiepie Russel that we’re not surprised that Drake’s birthday party was patterned after it! Who wouldn’t want to float away in a balloon-carried house? Anyway! Thank you, Happy Folks Studio for taking these snaps and Design Avenue for making us extra smiley today with this little treat! Happy Wednesday, folks!

      What we’re digging:

      • That aaaaadorable cartoon cake! All the pieces are so accurate to the characters in the movie!
      • “Drake Soda” cookies instead of grape soda like the one from the movie? Kudos for wordplay!
      • That photo of Drake’s parents squishing him with love and kisses! We’re sure Drake will be posting that for a Throwback Thursday post soon enough!

      Bakerella Stella

      Guess what, folks? Stella Hanalei just turned one, and we’re on an extreme sugar rush from all the sweet details of her big birthday blowout! We adore pretty much everything about this baking-themed party, so trying to compress them into words will probably take us days (maybe even weeks) to finish! This yummy feast that J Lucas Reyes& sent our way has really just left us at a loss for words!!! Let’s just make all the lovely photos do all the talking, shall we?

      What we’re digging:

      • Those mega-adorable customized aprons that all the little guests got to wear. We’re sure that it made all the kids feel extra special and chef-y!
      • Stella’s birthday dress specially made for her by Veluz. Yes ladies, at a year old, Stella was able to rock a Veluz frock!
      • The super creative and innovative decorations of Gideon Hermosa Cupcake liners used multiple ways in the designs? Genius!
      • Everything else. We. Love. Everything.
