Selected as Party of the Day on December 24th!
Be Merry - Have a Merry Perry Christmas!
ByParty Recap
Only in California can you have Christmas at the Park!
It was a cool December day, quite cloudy, but perfect for that little Christmas-y touch. It's California, after all.
I was so pleased with how my Rustic Thanksgiving party turned out, and my family just loved it. I then decided to use some of the items again, such as the farm tables and benches, as it is also quite convenient than having to carry multiple chairs.
Red and gold are not your typical rustic colors, but I decided to give it that rustic glam look. The vendors provided equally stunning items to pull this event off.
My family loved the 2 photo areas: the vintage couch seating area, and the photo booth and props.
It is my husband and I's first married Christmas together, and both sides of our family adored our little Merry Perry Christmas =)

The best Filipino desserts with a twist! My parents craved non-chocolate desserts and they were VERY pleased with her Ube-Macapuno Pie. It was gone in seconds! The haupia bars and mochi were not overly sweet that it seemed like you were eating healthy and would be wrong not to have 2 (of each!)
