Everybody Loves A Ginger
It’s the holiday season so the calendar is filled up with tree decorating, Christmas light gazing, and of course, gingerbread house decorating!
I was so excited when Sally from Pretty Little Events invited me to be apart of this ADORABLE shoot for a gingerbread house decorating party! Everything she does is always just stunning and gorgeous and I knew she was going to slam this one out of the park as well! And boy did she deliver!
Sally did an amazing job of layering all the details to make this whimsical, lush, and cohesive look that just challenges you to find every single little detail. The placement, colors, textures, they are all so deliberate and intentional. All of these details were gorgeously captured by the ever talented Erin J Saldana Photography. She is so amazing at capturing those smaller details while showing how they all pull together as a whole to create a vibe.
LV Floral Events did all the florals that instantly gave me those “Sugar Plum Fairy” vibes. The pinks and purples just tie in the back drop and the table top perfectly. I love how many textures she uses in her florals too, they are so rich and exquisite. The rentals from Sweet Salvage Rentals just hit everything perfectly as well, like a perfect storm. They have some of the cutest vintage rentals for kid parties I’ve ever seen.
Sweet Deetails created this yummy cake. I love clean cakes like this, that can be such a statement piece. This cake just takes it’s place among all the bright decor and takes command of the scene. I love it! It looks absolutely delicious too!
We were so excited to have a part of this shoot and when we heard the theme, I was even more excited. We did stir sticks, gingerbread tags, name tags, a cake topper, and a personalized hanger. I am ridiculously obsessed with this little gingerbread mascot we’ve got now. I’ve already got ideas for him next year. Do we name him?
It’s been proven by research that a hot chocolate with a gingerbread man stir stick actually tastes better. Come at me.
Sally styled some of our products for gifting. I love how they turned out! Its a nice way to kick up your gift without going crazy. She used the stir sticks with a mug, some ornament hot chocolate bombs, these delicious meringues from Little Meringue and Co and a few of our stir sticks for one gift. Such a cute idea! She also used the gingerbread tags as gift tags and our new Blair gift tags with beautiful ribbon on some simple packages.
Of course, no styled shoot involving Delovely Details would be complete without some hangers, right? I did two hangers for Sally, one with her own logo on it and the other personalized for the star of the party. When you have party dresses as pretty as this one, you have to display it properly. They make great favors as well!
I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait till I can plan a gingerbread house decorating party at this level. This party just gets you in that magical Christmas mood and I am here for it.
Sally once again, knocks it out of the park and does an amazing job of bringing in a range of vendors and making it all cohesive and tied together in a brilliant way.
And with that, here is a gingerbread joke to leave with:
What did the doctor tell the gingerbread man with a sore knee?
Did you try icing it?
