As you probably know Adelina turned 1 in June and we celebrated in a big way on Father’s Day surrounded by close friends and family! Today, I want to share intimate details from the party from the décor to candid moments and all the festivities that went on like a traditional Korean ceremony called Doljabi and Smash Cake which was the highlight of the day! For anyone looking to plan a 1 year birthday  I hope Adelina’s party would bring some magical inspiration!

Hey guys I know a lot of you are looking to have small tasks done around the home especially during summertime, so I want to introduce HeyBryan, a home-services app that connects people with home-service Experts to help you find the best care for your home!  I first learned about the app when I was invited to the launch party in November of 2018 in Vancouver and even got a chance to interview HGTV’s Bryan Baeumler who is the face of the app! After interviewing Bryan, I thought the app was a really great idea and why someone didn’t come up with this earlier? So recently, I was lucky enough to try out the app and was really impressed by the level of service and professionalism the Experts exuded and why the HeyBryan app should be your go-to place to connect with trustworthy home-service Experts so you can spend time with loved ones. ​

It has definitely been awhile since I have fashion blogged but today I want to share with you this outfit because I really love it and also its just perfect for the summer!   It was a bright and beautiful day in the city and I headed downtown for my usual events! Before we went to visit this gorgeous furniture store called Living Space on West 1st we decided to do a small photo shoot around the surrounded area which overlooks false creek and the tourist favourite Granville Island!  I love shooting at these types of locations because you can see the lovely skyline, the water and trees and also unique architectures which offers tons of options for shooting picture and also a great backdrop to illustrate the versatility of this look. 

Over the Victoria Day Long weekend  my whole family was invited by the River Rock Casino Resort for a 2-night staycation.  It was our very first family trip since having Adelina and we couldn't have asked for a better experience than at the River Rock Casino Resort.  What I love most about our stay was how family friendly everything was but also with plenty of things for adults which made for an unforgettable long weekend.   Celebrating its 15th anniversary this year, the River Rock Casino Resort is situated in a picturesque setting with stunning views of Vancouver and the North Shore Mountains! The only Four-Diamond Casino Resort in Western Canada it really is the ultimate staycation destination with great restaurants, an award winning Absolute Spa on-site and a 70 foot water slide for kids and not to mention its conveniently located by the skytrain and the airport with FREE parking, I mean how amazing is that?

Now that summer is fast approaching people are getting ready to host summer parties! A fun fact about me is that I LOVE to host parties for my friends but since pregnancy till now, I haven’t been on my top of my hosting game! However, with Adelina almost turning one years old soon (June 20th) I am getting ready to be my hostess with the mostest self again! To host a great summer get together you only really need FOUR things: Great food, good company, some good games and of course WINE! Sumac Ridge makes that task so simple because they have the best selection of wine to make your hosting gig that much easier!
