Valentine’s Party

Valentine’s Party

Each year Daniela and I like to host one themed party, aside from her birthday party of course :) Last year it was a Valentine’s party for 10 or so girlfriends. It’s probably one of my favorite parties we’ve hosted thus far. Everything turned out exactly like we planned and the home-made photo booth was too DIE for! The girls had thee best time playing! Daniela has some amazingly awesome girlfriends and anytime we can get them all together is a sure hit. HUGE thank you to my girlfriend Christina for taking these photos! I actually got to enjoy the party without worrying about capturing it. Which is probably why it’s one my favorites :) It’s a super easy party to host too. The printables are from The TomKat Studio and everything else was just around the house or made with construction paper — my kind of party ;)

The plan was to host a Mardi Gras themed party this year, but we’re running a little bit behind that schedule. Dani and I are reading about Marie-Grace from the American Girl series and Dani is begging to go to New Orleans for Mardi Gras. I’m having a hard time explaining that Mardi Gras just ain’t what it used to be :) Maybe we’ll pull a party together before the celebration is over :) Happy Valentine’s Day!

Moroccan Party {sneak peek}

I feel like I’m working on a thousand different projects right now. All of which are amazing (well, except for the spring cleaning which I suppose is now summer cleaning…) but there are some great ideas bouncing around my head! Most of which revolve around my soon to be ten (!!!) year old’s upcoming birthday party. Last year we did a Paris theme and we owned that party! This year, in keeping with the destination motif, Daniela has decided on a Moroccan themed party. My baby has good taste, let me tell you. I tried to rent a camel. true story. Sadly, the camel people weren’t ok with me bedazzling the animal for Moroccan authenticity. They also objected to pimping out the monkey. COME ON!!! whats a girl got to do to get some bling bling on a party animal!!?? We laid to rest the exotic animal show portion of the party in favor of a good old fashion photo booth. 10 year old girls never object to bedazzling ;)

High class photos will come after the party, courtesy of my all time favorite photographer, Jennifer Brancifort who owns myunionhouse photography and design with her equally gorgeous husband, Salvatore. Until then, my instagram prowess will suffice.

 

These are the fantastic scroll invitations. Daniela and I had SO much fun making them and then going door to door to deliver them on doorsteps. Daniela loves anything that will make a friend smile. Exceptionally proud of my little one.

 

 

 

Me + Lowe’s + 80′s Pandora + Liquid Nails = {soon to be} table! Just imagine all the little girls sitting on Moroccan inspired pillows around the pink and fuchsia table! eeeeeek!!!
