Ella Birthday Party
Hi Lovelies. Happy Monday. I am finally getting around to the big 5th birthday party. Lo decided she really wanted an Ella party. No, it could not be Cinderella. It had to be Ella. In her mind they are two different people. So, I said ok. I came up with my plan and my budget. I wanted to be all in no more than $250 and we came in just at that mark. Food, drinks decorations and everything. Here is our fancy 5 year old Ella Birthday Party.
I love putting together parties like this. Coming up with unique ways to incorporate the theme into the menu and the decorations without buying the typical store bought decor. I love the simple blue and silver with added touch of the butterflies and small details with the carriage and glass slipper.
