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!

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:

Mint Green + Gold Wedding {Inspiration}

Posted in Party Inspiration, Wedding Inspiration by uniquepasticheevents

When I was getting this week’s inspiration board ready to share with you, I ran into some trouble.

I KNEW I wanted to share an inspiration board with mint green, white, and light gold’s. Naturally, the first thing that came to my mind was a wedding, because I love wedding design. But as I was working on the inspiration board more and more, I knew this week’s post could be for more than just weddings.

I’ve been envisioning spring baby showers, perhaps an afternoon luncheon or even a birthday party with aspects of this week’s inspiration. Maybe even a bridal shower party?

So with that in mind, enjoy this week’s inspiration board:

Snowman Birthday Party Ideas

Posted in Party Inspiration by uniquepasticheevents

Are you nice and cozy and warm? As I write this I am, but I know January in Florida is some of our coldest time of the year. In fact, I’m pretty sure it is colder now then it was around Christmas.

Unfortunately, we don’t have the “snow cold”, just “Florida cold” here, so we don’t get to make snowmen any time of the year, much less after Christmas. One of my wishes as a kid was to have a snowman birthday party. I thought that should be the inspiration for this week’s idea board. So without further ado:

Christmas Morning Brunch Ideas {with an ornament theme}

Posted in Holiday Inspiratoin by uniquepasticheevents

Merry Christmas!

Are you a morning person usually? Or do you just make the exception one day out of the year? If you can pull yourself out of bed before noon, you’re likely able to handle hosting a Christmas brunch.

To me, Christmas brunch is supposed to be relaxed and laid back. Nothing too stressful, just enjoying the company of family and friends. But there are a few things that you can do to make you Christmas brunch EXTRA special, especially if you have children.

Here is my idea for a Christmas morning brunch, with an ornament theme to it:
