I absolutely loved the idea of a refined and more sophisticated take on the flamingo party, and thought what a great theme for a summer time birthday party.

Take a look at where I found this great inspiration from:

I love the extra sparkle the hints of gold bring. Fun tassels really liven up the theme, without going full on tropical flamingo.

What is your summer time cocktail of choice? Hard lemonade? Scotch and soda? How about Sangria?

HOT HOT HOT Pink {wedding inspiration}

Picture yourself in south Florida, where it is still in the 80s, the beach is perfect for an after dinner stroll. It’s cool in the evenings, but nothing a light jacket can’t handle.

This wedding inspiration board is for that couple wanted to say their “I Do’s” in south Florida, and want to embrace the bright and modern trends that go so well there.

Pretty in Pink {wedding inspiration}

Are you a girlie girl?

I generally wouldn’t consider myself to be the traditional girlie girl. I just don’t usually go for those traditional pink and floral-y things that in usually associated with the “girlie girl” persona. But for some reason, I really was inspired by some of the soft pink and floral wedding accents I had stumbled upon while browsing Pinterest the other day.

Normally, I tend to shy away from pink weddings because honestly, it often feels like (at least to me) like the groom had nothing to do with any of the wedding and that is not really how it should be. Weddings are supposed to be about the couple as a team, and cater to both of them, not just the bride.

But sometimes the groom is open to anything and often indifferent about what colors or décor is involved. Each couple is different.

So channel your inner feminine side and enjoy the soft pinks and floral details of this Pretty in Pink wedding idea board:

Lingerie Bridal Shower Ideas {in PINK and BLACK}

Oh-la-la indeed!

Picture all of your girlfriends, champagne, lingerie, pink decor, and fun games. What doesn’t sound good about that? A lingerie bridal shower has all of that, and more!

This type of bridal shower is best for the bride with lots of girlfriends (the more the merrier) because there are so many fun games to be played at this type of shower. I love the ones were each guest brings a pair of panties or lingerie (specifically in the brides size of course!) and they all get hung up on a clothes line. The bride has to try and figure out who picked out which pair. I’ve pinned a few lingerie party games on Pinterest if you are interested in reading more ideas.

While I choose to make this idea board in pink and black, any fun girlie combination will do! Just make sure you get lots of fun décor in coordinating colors to really set the mood.

If a lingerie themed bridal shower isn’t your thing, check out my other idea boards for bridal showers here.

Key elements to this event would be:

  • Color scheme – I went with black and pink, but pink and white, or black and white, or use the brides favorite color.
  • Cute, light snacks and nibbles – we ladies are always trying to watch our figure! Besides, we are there to support the bride, not have a full meal.
  • Décor – go all out girlie! There is likely not going to be any guys there sulking in the corner from pink overload, so bring on the floral, pinks and fluff!
