Summer Wedding Ideas in Turquoise and Silver

Posted in Color Palette, Wedding Inspiration by uniquepasticheevents

When I saw this great art print by IkeStudio on Etsy, I knew it would be such a cute print to have framed and put on a wedding table, maybe near the desserts, or even near the cocktail station! It said, “Today is a perfect day to be happy”. What better quote for a wedding day is there than that?

I loved it so much I decided to use it as the main inspiration for this week’s inspiration and idea board. I’m channeling a beach or destination wedding, with bright blues and a hint of sparkle.

Luxurious Dark Purple + Gold Wedding {Inspiration}

Posted in Color Palette, Wedding Inspiration by uniquepasticheevents

I’m mixing things up a little today and will be introducing a color palette section in today’s inspiration board. Having set colors goes a long way in insuring cohesion and clarity in wedding or party planning, and makes the design process a lot smoother. It only made sense to add one to color inspired inspiration and idea boards.

To kick off this new plan, I really wanted to share a palette that I am fond of: dark purple and gold. It is such a regal combination, and easily brings luxurious, rich qualities to any event it is incorporated into.

Posted in Party Inspiration by uniquepasticheevents

Are you ready for Mother’s Day?

It’s this weekend! I hope so!

Are you treating your mom out to dinner? Or does she prefer to do something quiet at home?

A great idea for avoiding the crowds at restaurants is to have your mother’s day celebration at home. A brunch can be a fun meal to praise and thank your mom. Plus, there are lots of delicious foods that easier than you would think to make that are perfect for a brunch party with the family. Here’s what I had in mind:

High Tea Lunch {With the Girls}

Posted in Party Inspiration by uniquepasticheevents

First there were the holidays, then New Years, back to work, back to school, Easter…you’ve probably been running around like crazy keeping busy! When was the last time you had a great lunch with you girlfriends where you could just nibble on some great food and chat and catch up?

I bet it has been too long!

Why not get them together over at your place, and have a cute high tea luncheon! You only need to invite a handful of ladies. Make sure to have a selection of teas and sandwiches, and some pretty sweets to nibble on. Oh, and don’t forget to pick up some lovely fresh flowers for the table!

Don’t worry, if you don’t have enough tea cups, a quick trip to your local thrift shop can fix that problem.

So pencil in a date with your girlfriends and start searching tea sandwich recipes. Here’s my inspiration board for a high tea lunch with the girls:

Sweet Lamb Baby Shower {Ideas}

Posted in Baby Shower Ideas by uniquepasticheevents

Did you know I have another blog? I do! It’s my other blog that was actually my inspiration for starting THIS blog here. My original blog is The Sparkle Queen, and that’s where I started sharing my event and wedding design boards.

And you may be asking yourself, “why is she telling us this?”, and hang with me. I’m telling you because on The Sparkle Queen, I’ve have a series called “Etsy Treasury Tuesday” where I share some of beautiful items I find on Etsy in a curated treasury collection. And the other day, the theme was “Decorating a Lamb Nursery for a Baby Girl.” You can check out the post here.

I found SO MANY adorable and just flat out sweet lamb themed items; I just had to turn them into a baby shower inspiration board. I cannot remember the last time I said “Awwww” so many times in an hour!

So without further ado:

You’re Invited: Easter Peeps Birthday Party for Kids

Posted in Birthday Party, Childrens Party by uniquepasticheevents

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:
