Spring Time Picnic

Spring is here and after the spring of 2020, the Spring of 2021 is actually full of hope and optimism. I am here for all of that!

Sally of Pretty Little Events and Amy from White Blossom Events threw together this Spring party and just blew everyone away. They are so ridiculously talented, and very inspiring.

This gorgeous spring picnic was adorable and whimsical. Everything Spring should be. The soft muted palette under that gorgeous willow tree, it’s just perfection. I just want to sit here with a charcuterie board and a glass of wine and feel the warm sun and light wind on me. So inviting!

Erin, from Erin J Saldana Photography, did a gorgeous job of capturing all the little details while also really providing the sweet and delicate tone of this picnic.

As one of the biggest animal lovers I know, I was so giddy when I saw they had real bunnies from Fable Farm Events. I mean, what else screams Spring more than fluffy bunnies?! Plus, it’s a great activity for the little ones to stay busy and to also get some one on one experiences with animals they may not experience in their everyday life.

The soft florals, which might have been an enticing dessert for those bunnies since they are just so gorgeous looking, were from LV Floral Events. The florals are really the main attribute to the softened mood for this picnic. They remind me of just more fluffy and inviting pillows.

I absolutely love anytime I get to work with Pretty Little Events or White Blossom Events, but when they work together…it’s just that much more reason to get excited! They always round up the most amazing vendors as well. Salt Paper Co. is a talent that I’ve been wanting to work with. I love her notepads and use them around the house but her custom work is even more to die for. Look how cute these casual invites are?! Who could say no to that invitation?!

We were so excited to do these carrot gift tags/place cards for this picnic! This picnic was the perfect way to showcase them and it meant so much to me that we were asked to be a part of it.

This stunning cake was just perfect for this little picnic afternoon. It tied everything in exquisitely. Miso Bakes designed this whimsical cake with flowers and mushrooms.

They used our custom engraved carrot name tags on personal milk bottles for each guest. They turned out so cute! We’ve also used them on Easter baskets and even gift tags.

My favorite, e2beauty gave all these girls an adorable mini spring makeover with some animal face painting. Not only is that a great activity for a group of girls, but it just completely adds to that whimsical mood for this picnic. Those little faces are just too cute!

I am so ready for Spring and all the warmer weather. I’m ready for a fresh new season and more gatherings, more reasons to celebrate, and even more reasons to smile.

Harper's First Birthday

Be prepared to see one of the prettiest first birthday parties I have ever seen! Sally of Pretty Little Events outdoes herself yet again. This gorgeous palette is just perfect for a girlie soiree. Every single detail of this first birthday is just ::chef’s kiss:: perfect! The florals and balloon garlands keep it elegant yet fun. The sweets and treats look mouthwatering. And the bar, I must say, is just next level with some Delovely Details!

We were so grateful to have been able to help celebrate this little beauty with our personalized stir sticks for their guests. It is just a small way to elevate the whole party and customize it for the birthday girl! The exquisite rice cakes from Sweet Florie Cakes are more of a piece of art than a treat! All of the details were gorgeously captured by Erin J Saldana Photography.

We loved getting to work with this amazing group of vendors to help celebrate this pretty little girl and wish her all the best in her life. There are those who say a first birthday is a waste of time, money, and energy…however I see absolutely no waste in celebrating a beautiful soul and getting together to wish them all the best in life.

Isn’t she just precious! The world better be ready for Harper James! Sally did an amazing job styling and planning this beautiful event for such a deserving little girl.

Speaking of first birthdays, we are at the half way mark for Hazel’s first birthday! We’ve played around with some ideas…but still have no clue what direction to go in! Any suggestions?
