Had an awesome weekend celebrating my princess 1st birthday with close to 70 friends and relatives! Clarissa favorite cartoon character got to be Minnie mouse because the first thing she does every morning when she wake up is to hug and kiss her Minnie mouse soft toy! Therefore the theme for her 1st Birthday shall be
"Magical Disney Minnie Party"
The Character
What is Disney without Mickey or Minnie? So off I went to hunt for our Minnie Mouse.. Initially google gives me some overseas website but after narrowing my searches.. I finally chance upon this shop website called "Costumes 'N' Parties" that offer Minnie Mouse oversized mascot rental. The cost for rental over the weekend is about $130 for 3 days.. Quite a good deal ya!! I immediately droved down to the shop at Kampong Bahru to view the mascot first in case it look like some mutated rat instead of Minnie mouse then cannot la.. Look quite good so placed a $30 deposit to reserve a VVIP special appearance by Minnie mouse.. heehee
The Birthday Cake & Princess Outfit
My wife was the main person in-charge of these two items. After comparison with some bakery store online and offline. Considering the expected turnout, our Disney theme and since it's our darling princess first birthday. We decided to splurge a little and order from this online blogshop called "Shiberty Sweets". Cost of cake is around $310.
As for our princess outfit, it was also ordered online.. hahaha.. talk about savvy parent huh?!

The customized Minnie mouse bow is from this seller "Fella*licious from facebook"
