We had a lovely little communion party for our daughter. I planned on giving our guests lovely communion favors to mark this special party. So, I checked out a lot of religious shops and even book stores but still couldn’t find anything that seemed just right. So I decided to check online and see what items they may have for our communion party. There were a lot of religious themed items that I chose for the tables, like these beautiful cross decorated votive candles. I chose decorative tins filled with candy for the grown ups and the children received candies packaged in adorable little teddy bear containers as their first holy communion favors. I decided to get each guest an extra gift and ordered religious photo frames too. I also ordered a couple extra of them for our house, to put my childrens pictures in.

It was almost like we were looking for her wedding dress, instead of a dress for her communion. It scares me a little to know that day will get here a lot sooner than I want it to. She looked like a little bride now with the lovely white dress and veil she was wearing. I guess a wedding reception and communion party isn’t all that much different. Just like at a reception, there was the decorated cake, a band for dancing and foods of all kinds to enjoy. We tried to keep things as simple as possible but at the same time show her how proud we were of her and make this a day she’ll never forget. With all the pictures we took at her communion party, I’m so glad we decided to make the pink photo album an extra little communion gift for her. I did go to a bakery for her cake, but as far as the food, we didn’t use caterers, some of the ladies helped me out by preparing some dishes of their own to bring. We had fried chicken, potato salad, vegetables and a few different types of salads. We had a fantastic dinner to share with our family and our best friends. It turned out to be a very nice evening and everyone seemed to have a good time, including our daughter. She got a lot of very nice gifts from everyone and her father and I bought her a lovely gold cross with her name engraved on the back.

All through the party I couldn’t shake the feeling that I was practicing for the day she grows up and gets married. I know that day is not so far away and we will be sitting down checking out the online selection for wedding favors and accessories. When that day comes, at least I’ll have a heads up on where to find the supplies and accessories she’ll need. Not only do they have a fantastic first communion favor section, but they have pretty nice wedding supplies too. There is quite a selection of wedding supplies and decorations for both ceremony and reception. They carry a lot more than communion favors and accessories for weddings. I hung onto this website because I can use their accessories and decoration selections for birthdays and graduations I’ll be planning in the future. You can plan a great bridal or baby shower, or have a fantastic girls night out party with all the super accessories and suggestions they have to offer. You can choose from many themed ceremonies and receptions like oceanside weddings, or seasonal ones like winter wonderland and my particular favorite, western themed receptions. There is also accessories for themed showers, birthday parties and more. I am sure this online store will come in handy many times over in my household.
