Party Preps: Superhero Party

This is just a sample table centerpiece we made for Jacob Marthy's upcoming Superhero Party (and mind you, it's overseas!).
We always try to make it unique for every party we prepare for each client. And Jacob Marthy is special to us, too! (Aside from the fact my son and him carries both first name (lol))

Do you like it?

Post-Party: Jacob's 3rd Birthday Loots and Giveaways

I'm caught up with load of works for the past few days and week, pardon me for giving you partial details of what we had last Jacob's 3rd Birthday Bash.. 

Anyways, starting with the entrance loots.. 

These loots are provided upon entry to the venue. I personally asked Shakey's staffs to set me up a separate table for this. 

I posted previously how I visually wanted it.. Though didn't achieved the exact peg due to time constraint, still I'm happy --- it's still an A++ (for me! well biased!) for super AAA--eeffort.. :)

Review: Limphots Photography

Since Jakey's 3rd birthday party isn't as grand as the first 2 parties we had (1st Birthday and 2nd birthday), I was looking for a cheaper yet somewhat could meet my expectations. 

I dont want to reply with guests and friends' camera for photos, I really allot budget for Photo Coverage. Luckily, I saw Limphots photos from previous events in SP Forum. (I later find out it was owned by one of SP Moms!) 

So, I sent PM to them inquiring for Jacob's party and if they are still free on said date. And luckily, they were! They even know me (I think, since I'm a SP Mom, too) and didn't asked for downpayment. 

Service fee: P2500 plus Transportation charge (I gave P3000 during our event)

I love their shots! He's so into taking photos of every guests and never gets tired running and following Jacob around the party area! 

All decors and details I prepared had photos, too! 

And most of all, I'm really impressed, the next day, I get to view most of the party pics on their Facebook page!

Rating: 4.5/5(There's always room for improvement, but really, they're impressive!)

Here are some shots from Limphots for Jacob's 3rd Birthday Party!

Review: Jacob's Party - Shakey's Shopwise Sucat

OVERALL RATING:4/5

For Jacob’s 3^rd Birthday Party, we decided to avail Shakey’s Party Package. SP Forum helped me in preparing and deciding where to celebrate a simpler party for my Jakey.

Since Shakey’s Shopwise Sucat is the most convenient location for most of our guests, I asked my husband to inquire first thru phone regarding details of the party. They only require P1000 for reservation/blocking of time and date and settlement of half 1-2 weeks before the event.(We settled 90% of the total amount 2 weeks before the event). They gave Official Receipt (always ask, in case problem may arise). 

Time of the Party: 3-5 o'clock in the afternoon

I called up hours before the party to advise them I'll be dropping by some of the prizes, loots and table centerpieces for the party (which I prepared at home and ahead of time). They were very attentive (naman) when I came, and temporarily store the items on the 2nd floor and locked it. 

Since our party will start by 3pm, we arrive ahead of time, around 2:20-2:30 pm to prepare the things needed for party. Unfortunately, the 1st party (though theirs was already done) haven't left the venue yet! Ugghh.. They just left when we (me and my relatives went it to prepare the things). 

This problem was common for party with only an hour allowance for egress. 

So, when you book with them, be clear on what you really wanted regarding this matter. Jacob's party started around 3:30 pm (30minutes late) and most of our guests were already inside waiting for the program. 

Party Preps: Jacob's 3rd Party Table Centerpiece

I posted this on my Facebook account (my personal account). I just made this within minutes!

#proudmama #achievement #partypreps #cantwaitforsunday #excitedmuch #jakeysbday

Table centerpiece base was from Handicrafts,atbp 
It's approx 14-15inches height, front design only with a dowel at the back for the balloons. 
Shoutout sayin' "Jacob's League" instead of Justice League. 
I had it made for 10pcs (2 each design) 

Party Preps: Entrance Table

For Jacob's 3rd party, since Shakey's only allows 2-hour party, we decided not to setup candy station/dessert station.
So, instead of setting up candy Station, I came up with an idea wherein all guests would still enjoy and take home party favors like chocolates, candies and or lollipops (even if they won't participate on the games prepared by the host). I ask our staffs to make penholders (box type) for Jacob's party -- well, it's still Justice League theme/design.

Below is the peg I'm planning to do and follow for the party. I already informed Shakey's staff regarding this table.

Party Preps: Loot Prizes

Giveaways and Prizes for Jacob's Party are always BIG THING to me -- I always try to find time to personalize it or put my own touch especially with our party themes!
I thought it would be easier for me to find Justice League themed items and prizes in Divilandia - but I was ssooo wrong! So, genetic designed items are always big catch to me -- It's just that it requires a lot of effort to make these prizes and loots special.

Here's a photo of from my Instagram account (IG: SASHABELLE_GARCIA) of what I did on ,y 1st night doing Jacob's Party Prizes.

Since I'm on a budget (well, I don't know how much budget! haha) I used the black ribbon from Jacob's Last Backyardigans Pirate Party (it's a left over!)

Whatcha think, guys?

PARTY PREPS: Invitations and Party Printables

Since we’re only planning for a simpler 3^rd birthday party for Jacob, I decided to make a simple Justice League Invitation (which won’t be printed) and only be posted in my personal account in Fb page ( it’s only a simple party in a restaurant with approx 60-70 guests).

I got the template from “Mr. Google” J and look up for captions on the web that’s related to our theme – Superhero Party!

INVITATION:

Size: 5x7 inches

Program used: I’m fond of playing/using MS Publisher for editing, doing layouts, etc (I’m not good with Adobe L)

Fonts used (for party details):   EA FONT (this is the closest font I could find only for Justice League) and Breezed Caps (for FLASH)

Party Preps: Shakey's Party Package

Since now I'm still on party planning stage, I cannot post anything regarding feedback or reviews for the party. However, I hope this will help you in choosing venue, queries you may ask regarding the package you are availing.

We (me and my husband) dropped to Shakey's Shopwise Sucat last weekend to clear things up regarding Jacob's upcoming party. We already made a reservation on time and date (they just required P1000 for this).
