Sarah, Elli & Luqman Birthday Bash!!

In my last entry somewhere in early March 2010, i was babbling on how excited i was to organized my own daughter's 3rd birthday bash together with my eldest bro's daughter and son on 27th March 2010.

The theme was actually a mixed theme, combo between Dora The Explorer (Sarah's), Princess Disney (Elli's) and Transformer (Luqman's)...but the main idea that striked me last minute during the chinese new year break...was actually a "Splish Splash Pool Party" :)

The kids love to swim, but when the party is held at the actual pool, most parent will worry in their kids' safety. I am one of the concerned parent too and decided why not we bring the pool to my mom's own backyard near the Zoo Negara housing area.

In organizing this type of party, you must have a large backyard,garden or space...i'm lucky because my parent fight for a bigger space for all of us to play at our own garden during the 80's (within their eye sights) hahaha...we even had camp fire among cousins when we were small! Talk about another ideas.."A camp fire" party perhaps for the boys in future during their early teens?? LOL! With the tents and camping gadgets..it would be fun to try!! Okay...i'm off the track again....

Another factor to consider is the weather. I was damn worried during that month, almost every day at 3pm it would rained. You should always have a PLAN B! Crucial in your checklist.

GREEN PARTY For KK

It's our big boss birthday 1st June 2010, we planned something boring and something thrilling!
Morning we begin with syiokk sendiri pot luck, breakfast and then nothing....the best part begin petang 6pm sharp after office hours.

The normal Tuesday Jog around Bukit Damansara were joined by everyone and including our MD Dato' Seri Z'. KK was really surprised that 99% joined the jog. Normally we can see only 40% LOL!! He didn't know that the CBG Club, organized a surprise thingy for him petang.

So we all warmed up and took a lot of group pictures, when they left the starting point which is our HQ, i and the rest of the secret agent start working. Me as usual the party supplier, and we are happy to use this space between Prokhas and our HQ. The mini jungle is totally ideal for relax mode theme!

So we start to hang the banners and the ruffles...then we know our boss hated sweet cake, so we ordered Pulut Kuning with Kari daging! Isrun's wife cook it. and design the 'KK" on the cake.

Pn Shahrul brought along her "ceremonial army sword" and he was pleased to use it to cut the pulut kuning.
My friend said, he was really surprise, he thought the boring pot luck in the morning,,,was just it! Hmmm guessed next year we really need to think of something more challenging!

Happy 37th Birthday Mr KK!.

The Coolest Boss in Town! :)

Clients!

I just started this business and i have decided to design a special form for my so-called "clients" to fill in the form and submit. The crucial part in this party planning is all about the budget and of course the duration that is given to us to plan. Preferential duration to plan at least 2 months in advance!

I need to talk to them one to one before proceeding with the quotation.
I have a collection of potential caterers with me, especially for this one particular who caters Birthday Parties! I just need to have a peek into my so called "party dictino"

Looking at niche of "kids market", but i think i shall take one step at a time. Being a banker on a full time basis hardly give us an oppotunity to ponder and clear your mind. I am determine to make this happen. Besides juggling between my very busy family commitments and social networking among others. :)

Pray for my success! I'll need to look ahead!!


Oh yes, if you are interested to get some consultation do not hesitate to email me...or fill in the form. For a start i am able to organize for a function with 100-150 crowd.

XOXO

March = Sarah's Birthday Month!

PINK & PURPLE 3rd Birthday POOL Party!!


I guess every year, i and sarah will look foward for March to arrive. My planning for sarah's birthday did start from March 2009! (theme :Dora) Haha...but this time i'll tone down and share the party with my nephew and niece-Luqman & Elly.

Sarah with her Dora The Explorer Theme - Pink & Purple
Elly with her Princess Disney Theme - Pink & Purple
Luqman with his Transformer Theme - Blue & Red

The pool party idea occured to me somewhere late Feb, where sarah & ilhan mandi at Tok Ma's house. I wanted to host it somewhere with a real pool...but fear of the kids safety and of course would be easier for the parents to monitor the kids nearby.

so...there..that's the idea. But i must make sure that my guests knows that its not a real pool! LoL! one of my colleague dah berangan nak mandi sekali gan anak!

Joining force with my sister in law, kak nina...is of course a good team work!

Counting down .......26 days to partyyy!!

Denim Smart Part 2
















done!






touching up...







our centerpiece








in progress


Our deco team lead by A2PP :)


I just love the disco balls....intrested with the theme?? We can rent you our discos ball...size s,m and XL..

"Denim Smart" Function Theme


When my office decided to proceed with our Family Day 2010 @ Fraser Hill-Shahzan Inn, i was among those who are happy to be involved in setting it up. As a secretary of the CBG Club, Consumer Banking Headquarters, we worked closely with the dateline given - 30th to 31st Jan 2010. It was a 3 day weekend with the Federal day 1st Feb 2010~Monday.

It was a very challenging theme as for the guest it is quite difficult to find an outfit that is extremely unusual...for a denim..especially for them to win the best dress award!

On our first hunt for the venue @ Fraser Hill (FH),we visited the three proposed venue and decided that Shahzan Inn is the right one! The rooms, the location, the dinner hall and of course the 'grandness' is very important! I love it the moment i saw the cosy-ness of the building and was really glad to found out at last that it was actually Shahzan Inn Hotel which is owned by the Pahang Royalty.

The residential manager, Mr Mokhtar and his assistant; Mr Talib was really helpful and very negotiable with the offer. So from then one we start planning and my main concern is of course the Dinner!! So after our second trip to FH, i started to brainstorm for ideas on the deco and decided that "Bling2 blue denim" would fit it well since we don't have any time to hunt for denim deco items on a very last minute.
The hotel provided the basic deco as requested such as the red carpet,the backdrop letters and bought the blue material to deco each table. I was very happy already with the basic deco and my team to touch up the up lift the "grandness" of hall.
Little disco balls here, medium disco ball there and one big one for the stage..the helium balloon we did it ourself..the tie back mini balloon too...me and isrun did it ourself! I think it turned out well...but of course we have to wait for some feedback..hehe..
Congrats to my deco theme..hoping A2PPL can expand more.




I'm glad that the GM agreed to the 'Smart Denim" night.

Ducky moments!

Cheesseee!

Cheers to the mother to be...for the 2nd time :)
Theme cuppies


The candies

My best friend, Fazilah (Fazz) is expecting her 2nd baby in January 2010. As a part time party planner i am more than happy to host the surprise baby shower. I planned it since i got to know she was pregnant somewhere late June 2009. Precious hours spend to doodle the ideas to make sure all the details are planned and coordinate well.

The most challenging part in event organizing i think for me is to choose the perfect theme and the guests list. If you planned carefully u'll able to start hunting for your items for the party farrrr wayyy advance! which is of course i took advantage of the recent X-mas sale. :)

I shop for the IKEA blue and pink light since Oct 2009..the curtain turned into table covers too from IKEA ..LOL!

My favourite thematic deco is of course the Diaper Cake...i bought the newly born mami poko diapers as a premium choice of pampers recommended to Fazz somewhere in August 2009..and start doing the diaper cake in Oct...walla...everything was ready by the time i managed to get an impromtu date for everyone to gather which was last minutely confirmed on Monday 28th Dec 2009, got 4 days to ensure everything is in order.

At last on 1st January 2009, 9pm...we managed to host this wonderful baby shower :)
Finding a gimmick again...was a bit of last minute idea..where i asked aimi and nina to pretend together with me that we are picking Fazz up to bring her to a restaurant to have our usual casual get together...aimi blindfold her with a used black tudung which i have cut and fold nicely.
It was funny and fun...i had to get Fazz's hubby consent and asked Fazz's sister Angah to assist being the photographer.

So here we are...7 of us...(2 more were outstation)...
