What a MONSTER birthday party!

Every time I travel to Iowa to help out with Averie’s birthday parties, I ask Amber to start a party planning business with me. We make awesomeness happen in these parties and it’s such a fun thing to do!

With Averie’s parties, the research and planning levels are taken off the table for me to a large extent. Amber does most of the foundation work, I turn up and help with the crafting and implementation. This was one of my favourite parties!
