Tea with the Queen

Miss Lo turned ONE on Friday the 19th of February and so we had a special tea party in honor of her majesty. This was something I have been waiting for since she was born. My only daughter's 1st Birthday party and I was determined to go overboard for her special day. It was so fun to have something NON work related to put some thought into and I wanted it to be fun for all who attended. Every detail was thought out and planned.

Her sweet cousins and friends brought her the most adorable gifts and she has had soooo much fun playing with her girly toys ever since. I wanted to thank everyone who came and especially for all of your help setting up! It was the sweetest of days. Thank you.

Ok you do everything SO cute, but I can't help but think about how expensive. How do you do it?! I can't even imagine how much it was just for the party favors. I need secrets.
