Rebekah’s 1st Holy Communion
8 years ago when I started Life’s Little Celebrations Rebekah was only 6 months old…so it is surreal to now be sharing her Holy Communion photos! This was featured in Issue 8 of Celebrating Little One’s magazine so you may have seen the feature already but if not I hope you enjoy the photos and may be inspired for your own daughters First Holy Communion.
I really enjoyed planning the post Church Holy Communion Celebration as it was something I had never done before and it was a celebration which was truly special for Rebekah and for our family.
I decided to use the Event Angel services of Sweet Heavenly Events so that they could setup while I was at the Church. This removed a lot of stress and it was SO nice to walk into a room after the Church and be surprised at the beautiful setup which was done while I was at the Mass. Using the Event Angel service meant I could still be involved in deciding on vendors I wanted to use and the setup style – but they could also provide advice and then design a look for the day and set it all up for us.
I decided to go with a beautiful floral theme for her First Holy Communion celebration and this was the design from the Event Angel:
This is how it came to life on the day:
The florals were all inspired by the invitation by Eve and Co!
Jo’s Sign’s by Design created the stunning decals applied to the props from Sweet Heavenly Events.
The amazing Madame Fleur created the beautiful florals on the tables and the dessert setup and they were gorgeous!!
The beautiful cake by The Ultimate Food Co matched perfectly (and tasted delicious!) and was topped by a stylish topper by Communicake It:
The place settings were from Sweet Heavenly Events with place cards by Eve & Co:
The kids were provided also a customised lollipop from Delleicious by Elle:
The adults received either these stunningly detailed cookies from Sweet Eve:
Or these gorgeous magnum pops by Cookie Queen Kitsch’n:
Rebekah felt truly special on the day and it helped her also realise the significance of the event and we hope she remembers this day forever!
Thank you to these wonderful vendors:
