Alice Tea Party for under $300!

So lately there has been a SWELL in the number of repins of all my Abbey in Wonderland ideas and so I figured it was about time to share my Alice in Wonderland themed birthday party on a $300 budget.

The lovely pictures were taken by my adorable friend Holly at Artistic Anthology Photography. Thanks Holly!

I focused on more the Disney cartoon than the Tim Burton remake as it was a one year old party, but a lot of these ideas can work for both, or even just a backyard tea party. I hope some of this inspires you to create your own Wonderland. I'd love to hear about it and see the pictures! If you have any questions, feel free to ask and I'll do my best to help you out!

Abbey in Wonderland - Our first birthday!

So over the past 6 months, I have been feverishly planning a birthday party for my baby. Her first birthday! To me, it was a huge deal and needed to be celebrated properly. Everyone, including Charlie, tells me the first birthday is more about the parents than the kid, but honestly I think this day is going to be just as much about her as it will about me and our first year together as a family.
