{Featured Parties} A Candy Land Party

We ALL love Candy Land, right?

Just wait until you see some of the great ideas that Crystal, a party planning mama, shared with us.

She recently shared photos from the sweetest

Candy Land party that she recently planned for her daughter, Paisley! (PUN intended!)

Crystal sent out super cute invitations.... Check them out!

The party event was a life size version of Candy Land! Literally!

The kids looked like they had so much fun!

Each part of the Candy Land Party/Game had an activity (or treat) associated with it. SO Creative!

Crystal used our Sweet Celebration Collection to decorate and accessorize throughout the party.

At the start of the party, they got their treat bags to carry throughout the game.

They did everything from decorating cupcakes at Cupcake Commons.

:) LOL

At Gummy Hills - the kids got a little bag of gummy bears that were packaged by making a bag topper using the printable package from our collection.

The kids made candy necklaces at Lolly Pop Woods.

The kids did a cake walk and Crystal gave away little prizes for the child that landed on the particular pink candy card when the music stopped.

The final prize was the actual Candy Land game!

The kids got to grab a Candy Cane for their treat bag at the Candy Cane Forrest.

At the Candy Castle, the kids got to jump out a little of the sugar!

The kids got to eat an ice cream treat at Ice Cream Slopes.... (of course!)

The kids had there choice of different flavored ice at the Ice Palace...

If that wasn't enough sweets, check out the treat table!

Crystal decorated with our printable "Sweet Celebration" banner and other printable graphics.

I LOVE the cake! So SWEET!

Adorable centerpieces....

Paisley looks so "sweet!"

At the end, Crystal gave away toothbrushes with a printable tag that said "Thank you for making my birthday so sweet". (Crystal was hoping to get back on the moms' good sides after all that sugar!)

I am blown away by all of the details!

Congrats on a very beautiful party!

The Sweet Celebration package is available in the shop!

{Featured Clients} Me & Riley - Luau Party from Dubai

Spring is right around the corner and that means fun, festive outdoor parties.
This party is beyond fun and festive!

Emma of Me & Riley, a Dubai U.A.E based event planning company, sent us photos from her gorgeous event that she recently planned.

If you haven't visted Me & Riley's site, you should! They do amazing parties and I love to see the different ways that other countries style their parties. There are lots of similarities to parties in the U.S but some of the details can't go unnoticed! You will see what I mean.... Eye candy below!

Me & Riley also has a very sound ethical policy where they attempt to go the most environmentally friendly route. I love their use of wooden utensils! Definitely check out their site!

Beautiful hanging decor, beautiful seating arrangements and table setup...

Here is the invitation that they sent out to their guests (available in the shop)

Precious totes!

Look at this beautiful cake!

I love the pillows around the table. I think I need to do that at my next party! So festive and colorful. I think this is a gorgeous party setting!

Definitely check out Me & Riley contemporary events site. Loads of inspiration!
We love working with international clients because they inspire us in so many new ways!

Oh, and on a side not - check out this photo from an Airplane themed party that we designed placemats for.

Thank you for sharing, Emma!

{Featured Clients} Mia's Birthday Celebration - A Carnival to Remember!

Jennifer Medina of Petit Delights sent me photos from a party that she was hired to plan and
I am very excited to feature this party on our blog today.

Carnival parties are SO much fun. What is not to love?

Candy, popcorn, clowns, rides, more candy... bright colors!

Jennifer came to us and liked our Vintage Clowning Around printable package, but needed the colors changed to the palette of the party. Well, the whole thing turned out adorable and we now offer the package in the shop (cotton candy colorway)

It is so great to see the final product of a super fantastic party. Jennifer and the Petit Delights team did a wonderful job of coordinating a LOT of details.

We have a lot of eye candy to share as well as info from Jennifer on the planning process.

In Jennifer's words:

"When we were first asked about helping with a carnival party, I didn't know we would be taking care of the entire production but I am sure glad our client trusted us with the details! We had so much fun coordinating every aspect of this party! Here are some of the details:

Inspiration: Our initial inspiration came from our first meeting with our client Tiffany. She wanted to have a carnival party for her daughter Mia but with a pink palette and coordinating colors. This was something really different and we thought it would be really fun! She wanted to include animals and lots of color!

Activities: Our client wanted a true carnival experience for her daughter and all of her guests so we coordinated to have a balloon artist, a face painter to draw on children's faces, cotton candy and popcorn machines, a mini-ferris wheel and a mini-carousel for the little ones, a pony for rides, a carousel-themed bouncy and lastly, a stilt walker! Yes, a stilt walker! It truly was a carnival to remember!

Thank you for sharing, Jennifer!

I can't believe the extent they went to in order to make this a real carnival.
WOW. I wish I were on the guest list ;-)
Beautiful, beautiful job!
