Dear Planner of a Fabulous Party (aka YOU),

I am not just some paper obsessed, trend seeking lady who runs Treasured Moments, I am also a Future Bride and Mother of Two <3 I've been fortunate enough to find myself in a field that not only allows me to help others make a special day even more special but also allows me the knowledge to help make my family's special days absolutely fabulous.  The past two years have been exhilarating for my family.  We've moved into a new home, started a new business, had a new baby boy, welcomed twin niece & nephew and are planning a much anticipated wedding.

I don't just sell the products on my site to my customers...I find myself incorporating these awesome products into my special occasions.  An extreme amount of research goes into us finding the highest quality, unique and trend setting favors, gifts and stationery designs to add to our site.  We scour the web...reading blogs, articles and even interacting on message boards with other fabulous party planners...all in the name of throwing a fabulous party that includes unique stationery and awesome favors that reflect our style and taste.  I've decided not to keep my findings to myself but to share them with my customers...that's why I'm here...to make sure your Treasured Moments are as special as possible.

So today, I'm sharing with you some of my personal top picks!!! I hope you are as satisfied with these favors, decorations, party invitations and birth announcements as I have been...Also, check back frequently as I will be adding to this blog all of my awesome findings.

My Baby Boy's Photo  Birth Announcement. We are a music loving family and this photo birth announcement was created to reflect our love of music and our sweet little boy.

My Baby Boy's First Personalized Photo Birthday Invitation.  I love combining chocolate brown with baby boy blue or pale pink! I took this contrasting color scheme and added it to our son's royal photo birthday invitation to create the perfect first birthday invite.

Our Baby Boy's First Birthday Party Dubble Bubble Gumball Favors: Verdict is I Love these colorful edible favors!!! And they are much larger than you'd think! The kids absolutely adored receiving these as favors.

Our Niece/Nephew Twin Photo Birth Announcement.  Decent Twin Photo Birth Announcements are hard to come by but we've gone out of are way to provide some chic, unique designs.

Our Niece/Nephew Baptism Personalized Coffee Favor.  My future sister-in-law is a self proclaimed coffee addict and she could not wait for a reason to order these personalized coffee favors.

Disposable Wedding Cameras for Our Summer 2010 Wedding, we ordered 2 wedding cameras per table...I guarantee the most candid photos come from friends and family at your tables. Make sure you've guaranteed a way for them to capture these moments. Our Tip:  Have someone develop the photos at a one hour shop the  day after your wedding so on honeymoon you can enjoy looking back on all the special moments!

I didn't want to do your normal plain jane wedding bubbles for our Ceremony so I've found these super unique "Bubbly" Champagne Bubbles to hand out to our guest's so we can be showered in an environmentally friendly, glistening cascade of bubbles! I cannot wait to see the photos of the sun shining down on these bubbles, creating that amazing rainbow effect!!

Our Wedding Favors: This was an almost impossible decision. How do you decide between 1000 unique and fabulous favors? You let the fiance choose!!! My fiance chose to go with our Custom Champagne Flute With Twisted Stem.  He really wanted a favor that would be used again & again and would be a reminder of our guest's special role in our wedding day!

And I am in love with the idea of hanging these stunning  "Sounds Like Love" Heart Wind Chimes in our outdoor cocktail hour <3 Wind chimes are a HOT favor item for 2010.  These would also make an incredibly unique favor for your guests.

Best Wishes For All Your Special Occassions!
