Red's 1st Birthday

Being a new mom is really pretty exciting. We prepare for lots of things for our babies including their birthdays. For moms like us, we always want what's best for our babies; yet in this fast-paced environment, there seems to be lots of things to be done in a very short span of time. Working moms can surely relate to this. Well, this blog will somehow give you an insight on how to conveniently prepare for your kids first birthday. Now, let's start!

Since we do not have enough space at home, my husband and I decided to just have our son's birthday in a typical fast food chain since it's pretty convenient and cheap. We researched on birthday packages from Jollibee, McDonalds, KFC, and Shakey's. We weigh our choices and decided to have the party in Shakey's. It may be a bit pricey as compared to the other 3 options, but considering the food, Shakey's would somehow be suitable to the taste of both adults and children. We availed their party package inclusive of the loot bags, prizes for the games, and balloons worth P3,900. 


For the food, we availed 6 Monster Meal Deal (unit price - P2,320) inclusive of pizza, pasta, mojos, and chicken.




For the cake + 12 pcs. of cupcakes, we got them from the Shakey's supplier (cost: P1,799). Then we added 12 more pieces (cost: P300).



And of course, no birthday parties would be complete without the mascot - Captain Shakeys (cost: P900).


All of the mentioned above were c/o Shakey's, Makati Cinema Square. As for me, this is what I personally prepared - my DIY candy bar.




As a result, it was a success. The children and even our adult guests had fun.
