Pretty in Pink


In the Fall of 2009 I hosted a "Pretty in Pink" Birthday Party for my Goddaughter and her sister. 

Me and the Honored Guests

I thought this would be a great opportunity to show them how much they were loved and for them to know how beautiful they are. They were my "clients." Before anything was planned I went over their house for a "party consultation." The look on their eyes when I asked them what they wanted for their party was PRICELESS! They wanted a color themed party rather than the usual character themed party.

The girls enjoyed a butterfly craft activity, dancing, a soul train line, and great food by a local caterer. I baked sugar cookies and cupcakes sprinkled with pink sprinkles. Those sweets went my FAST!


My Brother aka Party Crasher...At least he wore Pink lol
 It was supposed to be an all girl party, but a party would not be a party without party crashers lol.

Every child deserves to feel special every day, but on this one day I made sure they felt extra special. 

I can't wait to plan my son's 1st Birthday Party this year.

Pearl Themed Wedding

In August, we had the opportunity to be the Day Coordinator for a Pearl Themed Wedding. This couple planned their entire wedding and asked for a few ways to continue to tie in their theme throughout their big day. Using both design elements we recommended and wedding accessories they purchased the pearl theme was seen throughout the entire wedding day.

Her bouquet had accents of faux pearls and diamonds.


The Guest Book and Pen was from the Lenox Jubilee Pearl Collection.



The pearl theme was also incorporated in their centerpiece.


My favorite theme element was the cake. The cake had "pearl" accents from top to bottom. It was both beautiful and delicious! The couple had a cheesecake wedding cake. They LOVE Cheesecake!


Here are more pearl elements they used: 

Jubilee Pearl Dessert Set

Jubilee Pearl Flute Pair




There are so many ways you can incorporate a theme into your wedding without it looking cheesy. In this wedding it was done with such subtlety and elegance.
