Meredith turns one. And in this one year, she's shown me not only how to love unconditionally. But also show me how much love the people around us is capable to shower us with. Thank you guys, for all the fun, love and colours you brought to our life, to Meredith's life. I chose a carnival theme cox i wanted her life to be full of happiness, fun, colours and laughter, where happy people gather, to make fun memories, to be excited with little games and to be excited about little joy in life, like ice cream and candies and pizza and BEER! Hahaha! That's why i chose to celebrate it at Starker Music @ Zhong Shan Park! Starker serves signature roasts and international bar food to further accentuate the true beer drinking experience. And now i call it Starker Music cox they have live bands performing from Tuesday to Saturday. I've been there a few times even with Meredith and Si Jie also brought her family (Yurou and Yuxuan included!) there a few times! So it's really quite kids friendly where the kids can just have fun at the lawn outdoor while the adults chill out with a beer and some tasty snacks. It really is the next IT place to be for an after-work chill with friends and colleagues. You can check it out soon! Must try their freshly brewed beer if you're a beer person okay! If not their food will be equally awesome haha! Now moving on to the party.. It was awesome cox of all the awesome vendors. There will be discounts and promotional code at the end of this post from all the vendors! My party planners/ event stylists @ Assemble Happinest brought in the right vendors for the right things and also cox they did an awfully epic and crazy good job in styling the whole place up T______T Thank you Lydia and Jocelyn!!! I've been sharing so much about my planning journey with them in all the Meredith and mummy updates, now you can finally see the fruit of their labour!!! Before we start, i wanna thank Cino from 50nfifty for all the pictures!!! If you're looking for an awesome photographer for your event, someone who has initiative and knows exactly what he's doing, you know where to look for who! =D Pay an entrance fees and you will enter this carnival party! Entrance fees is paid by kind ; ) HAHA. Paid by flashing your.. Smiles =D Hahaha! Can you believe it, Assemble Happinest hand-drawn ALL the signages!!! =OOO They have different packages, if you don't like hand-drawn stuff they also have digital design and printing! Depending on the scale of the party you have in mind, they can style / plan something just for you! Extravagant, mid-size, cozy little party, they can plan and style everything for you =D They have been doing this for years and they know exactly who to pull in for what, and even if you don't like this, they have a few other contacts in hand haha. This is how resourceful they are. Directory stand handmade by Assemble Happinest. Carousel horse from IM Perfection!!! They provide lotsa many other giant props like light marquees you see at those dreamy perfect weddings! They are the biggest prop-rental company in Singapore so if you wanna level up your parties you know who to look for! Tassels and carnival themed cupcake stands and lollipop stands from GIVE FUN. They provide lots of decorative and party supplies.. AT VERY AFFORDABLE PRICES!!! Really no joke, like from 30 cents........ WHAT IS THIS. Please go check out their website! I just bought a whole lot of party supplies from their online shop for my friend's baby shower and birthday celebration. Really no joke you see, they have all sorts of theme that will be suitable for most party ideas you can think of. They also sell helium balloons in many designs! So long as you need party decorative items, you know who to find~!!! =DDD I arrived a little earlier to just check out the place before everyone else and all i see.. Are my planners from Assemble Happinest and the heroes behind Midnight Sparks running around climbing up and down.. To add the magical sparks to the party when night time comes.. ='))) I am very thankful cox this set up was really no mean feat. It's quite.. Insane. Later then show you all the magic sparks Midnight Sparks added to the party.. So beautiful can die one! Don't see now they look like beehoon LOL. It's major chio when the sun goes down! So this is the lawn right outside Starker Music that was just perfect for the carnival activities. Going indoor to Starker Music, the guests are welcomed by a giant clown balloon sculpture from Little Red Balloon ^.^ It's soooo cute isn't it!!! All the balloons you see at the party are from Little Red Balloon! They are so good at what they do!!! And the treasures are definitely indoor haha! LOOK AT ALL THESE BARRELS OF FRESHLY BREW BEER FROM STARKER (www.starkerfreshbeer.com)!!! Starker Fresh Beer is a German-style fresh beer. Starker's unique identity features the authentic German-style fresh brew experience for all your special occasions. Otherwise it's always perfect as a afternoon or afterwork drink hahahaha! *cheers to those who drinks at the oddest hours, you and me, we got each other* Haha! Starker Fresh Beer is brewed with 7 Days Shelf Life. They are brewed in an unadulterated form using the finest ingredients of hops, malt and yeast from Europe. Whether light or dark; all brews are kegged fresh, unfiltered and unpasteurized. Their beer is served in wooden barrels and has won several awards. Impressive? That's not enough. Wait till you taste it for yourself. No joke one, even non-beer-preferential people told me they really like Starker Fresh Beer that day. Usually they prefer wine / spirits / champagne and don't like usual beer out there. But even they enjoyed Starker Fresh Beer so that says something! Beer-lovers HAVE TO check out Starker Music! Tassel from GIVE FUN! What an awesome corner. Wouldn't you wanna be here!!! Just chilling and enjoying the freshly brew beer, and sometimes going to the lawn for some carnival fun and food! My baby has the coolest first birthday party! =D I call this the adults' happy corner for that day. HAHA. Really one, you can see a lot of happy faces crowd around here, choped as their permanent spot LOL. Onto the second level of Starker Music @ Zhong Shan Park! Popcorn boxes from GIVEFUN! Didn't lie to you hor! They have everything you need to make a party look pretty and fun! Hahaha! Gotta give it to Assemble Happinest to use the fake popcorn as table centrepiece! With balloons from Little Red Balloons! They make the whole place look soooooo happy! The birthday girl and me! Thank you Starker Music for hosting us!!! =DDD Sorry it's Meredith birthday i can post as many pictures of her as i want to hahahaha. As everyone does their final touch ups.. Kind lady from Susucre is also busy doing her final touch up for the main celebratory cake for Meredith!!! You have to check out their website and their work on previous cakes, quite epic one!!!

My baby is sooooo long and tall omg haha. She approves of this horse. Haha. Dessert table in the midst of set up.. But can you please just look at the signage Assemble Happinest hand-drawn!!!!!!

Photobooth by Bobo Shooter! They super duper effort omg, still go and hand-made customized props for this party!!! Even when they already have so many different kinds of interesting props to choose from! Like this fire ring!!! They did this specially to suit the theme of our party! More guests arrived to join in the carnival fun! When Lydia and Jocelyn were discussing with me what kind of food / dessert i want for the party, i said i want carnival food. Meaning pizza, hotdog buns, chicken wings etc. And they went to speak with Starker, they very kindly took care of it! Some snacks for you perhaps! Just wanna show you the kind of effort Assemble Happinest goes through to make my party look special. These are all one of its kind signages in the world cox Assemble Happinest handmade them.
