I’ve been working hard on the first big Bum Bum & Button children’s event of 2012 and ever really; it’s a Kool Kids Dance Party with a graffiti grunge feel as you can tell from the flyer. It’s a drop off event for tots and tweens ages 5 to 12 and at the great location of the Charlotte Trolley Museum, which is conveniently located off of the Lynx light rail for any parents who will be attending

A super cute alternative to flower petals and baskets for your flower girl, or even your junior bridesmaids, are the ever adorable flower girl fairy wands. They can be made with real, dried, or fake flowers, but for our tutorial we simply used fake ones in our chosen color.You’ll needFlowers & ribbon in your chosen colorsStyrofoam ballDowelGlue gunGlueRemove the stems from your flowers and push

I recently came across a bride wishing to have only a select number of close children at her wedding, but she wasn't sure how to tactfully exclude others.I think a great way to handle this situation would be to give the children you hold close to you a role in your wedding (if possible) perhaps as junior bridesmaids, pages, etc ... With this you accomplish two things at once ... you've found a

I had written this very lenghty blog post when my computer decided to update on its own and restart ... WHY????? Of course I don't recall what I typed other than I was talking about my journey into wedding sitting and saying how I'm going to start blogging more regularly, though my now gone post certainly didn't get me off to a good start, so I'll try this again ...My son was invited to be the

With the start of a new calendar year, it’s time to start thinking about celebrating another birth year.Aw the joy of an excited child waiting in anticipation of yet another birthday and if they’re anything like mine, they start announcing their age by saying they’re “4 ½” even as their birthday is only 5 days away, but of course that addition of a fraction makes them feel special and more like a

Unfortunately RSVPing has gone by the wayside. Some parents think it's only for giving a "yes" response or only for a "no" response ... it's not, unless otherwise stated on the invitation. Even a "maybe" is extremely helpful because it allows for planning and lets the parent/planner know there's a 50% chance your child may be in attendance.Whether inviting a small playgroup or large class of 24,

I've been working on Bum Bum's December custom themed birthday party since late October and luckily it's almost here. She wanted a Paris themed party because she thought girls would really like it, but of course I'm planning it to include boys as well so Button isn't excluded from the excitement.After much back and forth, the party is going to be held at Cafe Monte in Philips Place and though
