Pretty Perfect

I haven't been able to stop thinking about these parties all week.  I am so happy to share them with you.

Pink & Gold Guest Dessert Feature on Amy Atlas

This just took my breath away.  It is so perfectly lovely.  It's my favorite shade of pink and just whispers beauty to me.  It's elegant, classy, perfect for any wedding shower, baby shower or girly girl birthday (especially mine:))

Love the floral detail on the back of the chair.  Make sure to check out the entire feature by clicking here.

The second party that had me thinking was

Little Peach Party on Kara's Party Ideas.  

I love the theme of this party.  The themes for all the parties I have planned this year are based on phrases (apple of my eye).  This one would fit in perfectly.  I may have to add something like it to my summer entertainment line up.

It also caught my eye because of this stamp.  I love personalized stamps!  We'll talk more about those tomorrow when we return to our party planning series.  The topic: invitations.

P.S. Huge milestone today- 50,000 page views.  In January, I though it would be months before I reached 10,000:). 

More Eat, PINK, and Be Married

When my sister was getting married, I wanted to create the perfect bridal shower for her. She is such a girlie girl and the pink princess theme fit her perfectly. To set the mood for the party, my mom helped me make tons of pink pillows to put on the furniture around the pool. On some of them, I took the crown image from the invitation and transferred it to fabric to make princess pillow. I hung 100 pink paper lanterns around the yard and added tons of pink flowers in vases with my sisters new monogram. On each table, I placed a different famed quote about pink or princesses; one by Audrey Hepburn, Sara in the Little Princess, Elle Wood from Legally Blonde, and Shelby from Steele Magnolias. The invitation asked guests to wear pink which added to the mood of the party. When guest arrived, they sipped on kir royals with pink sugar around the rim of the glass and snack on pink salmon canapes. The centerpiece of the dessert table was a pink ombre cake and all the rest of the sweet treats were in shades of pink except the mini banana creme pies which are my sister's favorite. Over the table was a banner that read eat, pink and be married. Guest left with a mercury glass votive with a crown on it. 

I had a local printer cut the words for Bride to Be out of vinyl and made the sign on the chair that may sister sat in while opening her gift which most of the guest had wrapped in pink paper:) It turned out to be the perfect girlie girl shower fit for the princess that my sister is. 

Eat, PINK and Be Married on HWTM

Today was a huge mile stone for me.  I am so humbled and honored to have the Eat, PINK and Be Married Bridal Shower that I hosted for my sweet sister featured on Hostess With The Mostess, the be all, end all of party planning site- the queen of all party planners.  I have been holding my breathe for the past month waiting for this to post and it is really a professional high for me.  THANKS to Jenn, Amber and the entire Hostess With The Mostess Team.  That's all- I'm overwhelmed and speechless.  I can retire happy, professionally complete;)  Hop on over to HWTM and check it out.

I am happy to send you the file for these adorable pink party quote that were on each table if you

2. Post a comment with your email address or send me an email with your email address so I can send it to you.

I keep the one about princesses in a small silver frame over the dryer to read as I'm folding laundry- makes me smile.  The rest of the printables from the party are available in my Etsy store.  I think they would also work great for a baby shower or birthday party.  If you haven't had a chance to see the milk and cookies dessert table I did for my sisters engagement party, check it out here.
