A Masquerade Ball Party

A Masquerade Ball Party

With Mardi Gras 'round the corner, I thought it would be the perfect time to share this gorgeous glitzy and glam Masquerade Party with you! It was styled by my dear friend S arah from Sarah Sofia Productions for a Murder Mystery Party , but I think many of the ideas can be used for a Mardi Gras party too. Sarah asked me to design the printable decor and backdrop banners, and I love how everything turned out! Check out the stunning details below as told by Sarah, to inspire your celebrations, whatever they may be!

This post is in partnership with the new Peter Rabbit movie, but all opinions are my own. Spring is 'round the corner, and if you need a cute party theme for your child's birthday, for a baby shower or Easter celebration, then this PETER RABBIT party will tick all the boxes! I was super excited to be contacted  by Sony to help celebrate the release of the NEW Peter Rabbit movie coming out on February 9th, and decided to style a 'Hop Into Spring' party full of fun and whimsical details that mirror the movie! 😍

Whether you're hosting a Valentine's Day party for your gal pals, a romantic dinner date with your other half or a fun party at home for the whole family, these party crackers are sure to bring a little "bang" to your love day event! 😉 It's a British tradition to have crackers at Christmas. They pop with a loud bang when you pull them apart and make for a fun party game! They're also usually filled with party jokes and trinkets inside, so I thought they would make a super fun Valentine's Day party favor!

Champagne New Year Cake Hey party lovers, are you excited for 2018? I sure am!!  Even though I have high expectations for 2018 and am hoping for a year of prosperity, joy and blessing...I'm not one to really go to town with parties on New Year's Eve, I have to admit.  I think by the time New Year Eve comes 'round, I'm all partied out! 😋 Having said that, we always have nibbles and drinks at our house on the last day of the year. Whether we have company or not.
