When it comes to meticulous party and event planning, I always look up to my former Nursing School classmate and very good friend, Diana Grace Santos-Perlas. She wouldn't settle for anything else when it comes to suppliers and party venue. She is a wise spender and she knows exactly whom to contact. She is the right person to ask about suppliers that are affordable but offer the best services.

We were invited to the birthday party of her daughter, Chloe, last December. As expected. It was a blast!
I consider it as one of the best birthday parties I've attended!

I asked permission from Grace if I could share the event on my blog and she agreed. She willingly gave me the list of her suppliers.
Grace said that she was hands-on in booking the party organizer and suppliers including the magician, photographer, videographer, and cake. The organizer was the one in charge in styling, photo booth, and other details because she was in Dubai during the party planning.
Here are the list of suppliers she contacted:

VENUE DECORATIONS, KIDDIE SOUVENIRS, INVITATIONS, PRINTABLES, STYLING, & COORDINATION: The Party Studio
All the details that Grace couldn't do, Miss Pinky Santos-Franscisco of The Party Studio was there on the rescue!
Grace trusts Miss Pinky and her team when it comes to party styling and other party details for years. She's very easy to transact with and what makes her more special is that she treats her clients like family.

CAKE and CAKE POPS: Sugarplum Pastries
Grace chose fondant cake instead of the one with butter icing due to aesthetic purposes. Sugarplum Pastries offer rotating cakes and other yummy treats!
This rotating cake was one of the highlights of the party. |
These flower cake pops were pleasing to the eyes and taste buds. |
ICE CREAM CART: Nestle
Booking and choosing of flavors was done online and the payment was done at the day of the event.

MAGICIAN/HOST: Alex Lagula
He was chosen due to raves and good reviews about him. He was the magician of most of the birthday videos that Grace watched. He could win the hearts of both kids and adults. His antics were unique and something fresh! The sound system was included on his package too.
Here is his Facebook Account: https://www.facebook.com/alexander.lagula.

VENUE: DML Tent
The party was supposed to be held at Camp Crame Multipurpose Hall. It was December and peak season. The management couldn't assure the time slot that Grace wanted. She chose DML Tent instead because the place was accessible and spacious. There was also a mini playgound outside for kids to play while waiting for the party to start.

Grace liked Bea Caisip's works. The photographer could capture candid moments spectacularly.
