The stunning cake Conrad had made especially for May May

Each table was named after a different precious stone or metal, with a treasure map showing Meggie as our treasure!
The stunning lanterns Mom created with a treasure box filled with treasure in each one, i think it really looked lovely!
The glass mom had specially engraved and then adorned with jewels for Megs - you can see in the glass to the right that each person got a bag of chocolate money to complete the treasure theme!
The room completed !
Our scrap book page to Meggie with a list of all our favorite memories
Our gift to Megs was a scrapbook filled with messages,memories and photos that i collected from all our family and friends!was so lovely to do and to read everyones favorite memories and stories of Megs!
SURPRISE!!! now i can divulge one of the reasons i was SO VERY BUSY the last month especially! Mom, Conrad and I have been arranging a surprise 30th birthday party for Megs! For months we have managed to keep it a surprise from her - we were delighted that she was genuinely surprised when arriving on Saturday to be greeted by more then 70 family and friends !
We had the party at the Royal Elephant hotel - which has a stunning Moroccan flavour down to the smallest details- it was really a stunning venue and the food, out of this world!
We used this as the start of our theme and we eventually had the them centred around Megs being our treasure . We really enjoyed every single minute of putting the ideas together and were delighted when realised on Saturday when all came together!
Even the kids were entertained in every possible way - jumping castle, wii, playstation, sweets! They loved it!
Thank you to you all for making it a wonderful day for Megs, thank you for all your help with the photos and messages for the slideshow and the book!
Unfortunately my camera didnt co operate so some of my photos blury, trusting Megs will put hers up on her blog soon for you to enjoy!
Happy Happy Megs, glad you loved your special day!
