Joyce Bea

7th Birthday Party

August 23, 2008

Garden Dine Restaurant

Balibago, Angeles City, PHILIPPINES

Filipinos are very known as people who loves merry-making, & with their hospitality who are very accommodating to their guests. For moms, it is always an exciting part to prepare a feast for their daughters' 1st, 3rd, 7th, 13th, & 18th birthday. Very significant for kids to celebrate how they passed their infancy, childhood, teen-age lives, and in facing their early adulthood. Not mentioning how is the preparation for wedding... well, not all women receives this blessing for matrimony.

Almost 3 months preparation, it was truly stressful and exhausting. From booking the venue, choosing the dishes to serve for the guests, contracting a photographer/videographer, the perfect designer/maker/couturier for the gowns, choreographer for the dance numbers, down to the cake design & its maker, give-aways, slide presentation, flower arranger, to the smallest things of the invitation, give-away photos, guests' sign boards, and the tarpaulin.

My Princess Joyce Bea turned 7 on August 27, 2008 but I have prepared a birthday party for her on August 23, 2008 as this date falls on a Saturday, which also marked the date of my pretty young lady's (Jobenne) 11th birthday.

A big thanks to my cousin; Elle, who had Bea's pictorial for her give-away photos, guests' sign boards, invitations, & tarpaulin, she designed them too. She was also the very artistic designer behind the special gowns which Bea wore that evening. Designs which then were made by Tita Rachel; also Bea's Cotillion dance choreographer & her make-up artist for that special night.

Since these pictures were from our digicam brought by our super Tita Rachel coz' our photographer/videographer haven't released any picture yet, some selected pictures are hereto attached for public viewing:

Alethea Erin; Bea's flower girl & balloon bearer that night.

Blooper: She doesn't want to hold the candles & distribute them to the candle sponsors because she was afraid that those candles will be burnt on her hands... oh! sorry little darling if we scared you...






Among Bea's 7 Roses sponsors, Tito Ding gracefully danced our celebrant as they both smiled to the audience.

After the 7 Roses, comes the 7 Balloons Wishers where Kuya Renzo; Bea's 3rd cousin wished her good health.
