mom life : Odette’s 1st Birthday Party

Posted on Leave a Comment

Our little girl is 1 years old! We had a lovely party with family and friends at Island Park in Williamsville. They have a cute good size pavilion and you pretty much have the whole park, a little island before Glen Falls, to yourself. Going along with her name we decided on a swan theme. I went with pale pink, white, and gold for the colors as they are the colors of her room and colors I always dress her in but added in teal for some fun and to pair with the blue and green colors of the pavilion.

This year I decided I’d do the photos in our living room. It was cold out by the time I was ready to do the portraits and something cozy and warm was in order to keep Odette from freezing outside in her holiday dress. Next year I think I’ll plan our outfits to be outdoor appropriate. With a tripod and lots of help from my husband, we captured some photos of Odette and our family!

Fixtures such as the personalized wooden ceremony backdrop, DIYed by the bride, and the huge white reception tent made this backyard wedding feel grander. Yet DIY details let the couple’s carefree and fun personalities and their unique styles show through. All together it created the exact blend the bride desired of traditional elements, like her dream wedding dress, and rustic elements of being outdoors and laid back.

The day was filled with laughter and smiles and it was a wonderful capturing sincere moments all day long. It was clear everyone was having a good time, it really showed.
