Hendrix’s 2nd Birthday Party at Stacy’s

For Hendrix’s second birthday, we opted for a low key and intimate gathering with just our immediate family and Hendrix’s friends. Yup, he has a group of friends already. These are families of Hendrix’s fellow babies in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) during his 3.5 months stay there. Up until now we still have playdates for the kids. It is great seeing our kids grow together.

Going back to the party, despite being a small one, I was very picky when it comes to the venue. I have several considerations and everything must be met. I wanted it to be exclusive but has a homey feel. Since most of the guest kids are below 2 years old, I want the venue to have a play area. Of course, food must be good. Hendrix has a guest list of 25 and I wanted all of us to have a chance to interact to each other while playing with the kids.


I took my time in choosing a venue because I do not want to compromise. In the end I found the perfect, as in the ideal location. All my considerations were met, plus it has very good reviews. We chose Stacy’s at Capitol Greenstreet. I was initially worried because aside from being a known restaurant for its comfort food, Stacy’s is also  a popular party venue and our date might be reserved already. I’ d like to believe that Stacy’s was meant for Hendrix because the date and time that we want is free. Best of all, we get to occupy the entire restaurant! Pretty cool, right?

When I booked Stacy’s almost everything is taken cared of. They covered the decors, food, and sound system. The restaurant is homey and cozy by itself so there are minimal things I wanted for the decor; just the color palette of blue, green and yellow. They got everything right!

For the souvenir, I just bought sand bucket sets for the kids which is in time for summer at the beach.

Hendrix was all smiles at his party. Since there just a few of us and the guests were all familiar faces to him, he was not stressed out. He is at his element.

What I like most with intimate gatherings is that we get to talk and catch up with all our guests. And since  everyone knew each other, it is easy to bring the party to life. And who needs a party program when you have toddlers running around? It was so much fun just trying to chase them around.

In the end, we got what we wanted and more. A big thank you to Stacy’s for the beautiful party. I will not be surprised if we will have more parties with them in the future. And to our family and friends, thank you for gracing Hendrix’s birthday!

      Hi Lara. Thank you for dropping by my blog. Reservation fee at Stacy’s is P5,000. I reserved for 40pax although actual guests are only 25 just so we can have the restaurant exclusively for us and the kids can move around freely which costs around 26k exlusive of the cake which I bought outside and the giveaways.

    Hi Mommy,

    I’m considering stacy’s too! Do you mind sharing the menu you had for your baby? Though I already asked them for the package.

    Thanks

        Hi Nikki. thanks for dropping by my blog. I suggest you give them a call to ask for the package. Check their FB site too and leave a comment. Just want to be sure that you will get the most updated version of their package so I think it is better to get it directly from them.

      Hi Krystle! First of all thank you for dropping by my blog! My apologies for not responding to your query right away. it has been a hectic December, right? Blogging has always been an outlet to me since year 2004. I was still single at that time. This is like my online journal.
      About Stacy’s, as far as a I can recall, the food they served are good. If i recall correctly, they served meatball pasta, breaded porkchop, salad, braised beef, among others. Cupcakes are also part of the package. But the cakes, we bought outside (with no corkage fee at that time). Although I wish to make a disclaimer since my son’s party was held four years ago so I suggest that you go try out some of their dishes before booking a party. For an intimate gathering, Stacy’s is really a good venue. Our guestlist is just around 30 people so kids have the space to move around the play area and the restaurant.
      I hope your son’s party will turn out will! i would love to hear about it! Thank you and Happy Holidays!
