As the light of their lives, it’s only right that these parents hosted a ‘You are my sunshine’ first birthday party for their adorable twins! As you would expect, it is bright and sunny and we love every last bit of it! For a funny anecdote on how they came up with the theme, and all the incredible, bright, and balloon-filled details of the day, scroll on. Oh! And don’t miss the Beyonce moment…
Dad and designer at Gromeza, Ozzie, shares…
Over two years ago, my husband and I started the journey to become parents; an emotional journey that brought us two beautiful miracles. Our inspiration for their first birthday celebration was influenced by my younger sister. When my sister had her daughter, I always remembered her singing “You are my sunshine” to her. As we were getting ready to welcome our babes, we practiced this song over and over, because we wanted to be those parents that soothe their children with song.
Well, we did sing the song to them over and over and over to soothe them when they cried, or felt uncomfortable. Guess what? It didn’t work! We switched to the alphabet song quickly, which apparently has a better melody to compliment our angelic-like voices – Ha! Either way, the song has a special place in our hearts, even if the kids think we sound like banshees.
I combined our love of the song, my infatuation with Beyonce, and the kids’ love of fruit and Mexican popsicles to create a fun and bright celebration for this special milestone.
I’m obsessed with this whole setup!! Congrats to the lovely couple!!
So adorable. Love that balloon installation!
I love this – already looking for twin birthday party ideas!
