Charlotte's First Birthday Party

Charlotte turned ONE this past Friday, and on Saturday we had a handful of friends, family and neighbors over. We kept this celebration really small compared to Camille's first birthday party (recap HERE) and it was just as enjoyable.


(invitation HERE on Etsy)

The vintage baby party invitation was just perfect for our sweet little Charchi-girl. She is so angelic and darling, just like that cherubic ruffled-bottom baby on it. 


(gold glitter acrylic cake topper HERE)

I used Harris Teeter for the layer cake and her smash cake (they give you this for free for your child's first birthday!) and it was delicious as always. The acrylic cake topper is reusable, so a total deal -- it's around $10. 


Charlotte wore a dress that my mom made and the sweetest little vintage-hued party hat (found HERE). I found she kept it on best if I put it around the back of her head instead of under her chin.




I have a really neat story about that cake topper ... will share it Friday!





She was gentle at first with her cake (it was her first taste of cake ever!) and then she dove RIGHT in. A girl who takes after her mama!



Charlotte, you are a dream come true.
Our whole family just loves you.
Happy first birthday, baby girl!
