You’re Invited: Easter Peeps Birthday Party for Kids

Do you know any kids with birthdays near Easter?

I always wondered if the kids who had birthdays on or around Easter got the short end of the presents-stick, like the kids with Christmas birthdays. But then I got to thinking, the kids with birthdays on or around Easter and Halloween probably have it MADE.

Think about it. During that time, there is literally TONS of yummy candy lining every available store shelf. Those kids can have one heck of an awesome candy party!

That got me thinking about if MY birthday was near Easter, and I was a kid, what kind of party would I want to have? And I immediately thought “PEEPS PARTY”. Naturally I just had to make a party inspiration board for something that cute. Here’s what I came up with:

What Will It Bee? Baby Shower Ideas

Posted in Baby Shower Ideas by uniquepasticheevents

Buzz! Buzz!

Are you a gardener at all? I am, on a very small scale, as there is only so much I can fit on my little apartment porch. But one thing I always make keep in my little garden is a few butterfly friendly plants. Right now they are in FULL bloom and absolutely gorgeous. I’ve been spotting butterflies, bees and lots of little critters near those plants. It’s quite an active little pot!

The other day I was out watering and noticed several of those plump, round, bumble bees. They were so busy zooming here and there, I doubt they even noticed me, but they were my inspiration for this week’s event idea and inspiration board.

This baby shower was inspired by the nature loving mommy to be, that is excited about her baby, but may not be ready to reveal the gender just yet. Yellow is great for gender neutral baby showers, is bright and cheery for spring, but is also different from the normal baby blue or pinks that most baby showers lean towards.

If the mommy to be wanted to announce the gender of the baby at the party, she easily could with this theme!
Let’s take a look shall we:

Love Is Sweet – A Cocktails and Sweets Engagement Party

Posted in Engagement Party by uniquepasticheevents

Have you heard the phrase “Love Is Sweet” before? As the rise of themed candy bars grows, so does the popularity of that saying!

Do a quick search for “Love Is Sweet Take A Treat” and you will get MILLIONS of picture results with every color candy bar imaginable. Crazy isn’t it?

I thought: why not take that theme, and go a little bit further?

This week’s inspiration board was for a young, recently engaged couple who are fun loving and want to celebrate their engagement with their family and friends. They want a relaxed and fun environment where everyone can mingle and chat. So what better way to do that then to have a cocktails and sweet party?

Love Is Sweet – A Cocktails and Sweets Engagement Party

Everyone loves desserts and can’t resist a yummy drink. I went with a light blue, almost turquoise color, paired with a bronze for this idea board, but any color combo you choose would do.

A must have for this type of party is a signature drink, extra points if you can make it match one of your theme colors.

Another must is lots and LOTS of desserts. I tried to get a little of everything in, but the highlight of the evening will undoubtedly be the Ferrero Rocher inspired desserts.

If you REALLY wanted to run with this color scheme, you may want to take a trip to the thrift store. They often have odd mix and match glasses, and I bet you could probably pick up a few blue glasses for your guests to use. Don’t worry, they don’t all have to match, in fact, it’s almost better that way. Everyone will have their own unique glass, and they will help enhance the party’s décor! Win win!

The Beauty of Baby’s Breath at a Wedding

Posted in Wedding Inspiration by uniquepasticheevents

If the words “simple but elegant” describe your wedding aesthetic, then look no further then baby’s breath. This beautiful floral is just that. It can be incorporated into almost any facet of your wedding, is easy to work with, has a great price point, and more importantly: looks fantastic.

This week I decided to challenge myself to pick one flower type, and base an entire wedding around it. I wanted to choose something that I believe to be underused and underestimated. Baby’s breath fit the challenge!

Here is what I came up with for this challenge:

22 Wedding Bouquet Memory Charms Ideas + Inspiration

Posted in Wedding Inspiration, Wedding Tips by uniquepasticheevents

Wedding Bouquet In Memory Of Charms

“The BIG day.”

“The biggest day of your life.”

“The most important day of your life.”

These are often the phrases we hear when talking about weddings. It is such a special day for the couple, their family, and their friends. Though too often there are loved ones who are not able to be there, whether they are unable to attend, or have passed on. Parents, grandparents, family, even Spot the family dog.

One way brides remember their loved ones is by adorning their bouquets with memory charms. There are so many options and styles of memory charms and even more ways to incorporate them that I thought I would put together this roundup post to help inspire brides everywhere.

This kit is sold by Perfect Pendants Plus on Etsy and includes everything you need to make your own charm.

Cute as a Button – Baby Shower Ideas

Posted in Baby Shower Ideas by uniquepasticheevents

Hello again!

This week’s inspiration board is themed “Cute as a Button”. A sweet, baby shower for the crafty soon-to-be momma!

The mommy-to-be I had in mind for this baby shower is sweet, loves simplicity, and is a craft lover. With plenty of ideas for onesie decorating at baby showers, I thought a cute twist on it would be to have all of the guests bring a small portion of baby fabric (since a little goes a long way with a baby) and give it to the crafty mom-to-be to use in her future baby crafts.

I know you are dying to look at the cute baby shower ideas, so here it is:
