Forever 29

Without a doubt, my favorite birthday party was my fabulous 29th birthday extravaganza! As far as I am concerned, I will forever be 29. Alas, as I am approaching my 34th birthday, I am looking back on my past favorite birthday. I planned my 29th for months and had one of my best friends help organize the amazing dinner, gift bags, and decor while my husband hosted my amazing night for around 20 of my closest friends at the Ritz Carlton. 

To start off the special day on the right foot, a few of my best friends (they flew in just for my birthday) and their husbands spent the day sunning and drinking mimosas in our own private cabana at the Ritz Carlton. We began my birthday night with fruit and cheese and a champagne toast overlooking the Atlantic Ocean in our private cabana. My husband is a toast master and gave such a memorable speech. Likewise, I was touched as my friends followed up with their own kind remarks. I was definitely feeling the love and was ready for the night to last forever! 

Now between the 3 course menu and the many bottles of wine and champagne, everyone seemed to be in good spirits. After an incredible dinner filled with laughter and good friends, my beautiful cake and  individual desserts were served. Feeling the love and super thankful for such a thoughtful husband!

After dinner we headed onwards to the Samba Room on Las Olas, for an evening of dancing, more champagne, and celebrating until the wee hours of the morning. Fast forward to mommy hood and my focus seems to be on having babies, baby showers, and fabulous children's birthday parties. Hopefully this year, my 34th birthday will be just as memorable as my favorite 29th birthday party!
