LOVE BIRDS.

post brought to you by Pink Door Design

Oh, love is in the air! We hosted a couples shower this month for our good friends, who are tying the knot in March! In honor of these two lovebirds, I designed a couples shower invitation with a fun gold & sea foam green color scheme...accompanied with a pair of love birds, of course!

The love bird invitation and the bride-to-be's love for shabby chic decor inspired 

the banners, centerpieces and food labels for the shower.

We recently finished our flagstone patio (I promise to post the amazing patio transformation soon!) and we were able to set-up EIGHT tables and seat everyone outside for the delicious dinner - complements of our amazing Chef, Ms. Catherine Wilson!

I had a fabulous time decorating the table centerpieces on our patio with old books, tin cans, vintage bottles and bird cut-outs to match their invitation. I chose craspedias (a.k.a. billy balls) and a succulent called Sedum to tie in with the invitation's gold & sea foam color scheme.

We had such a blast celebrating Josh & Lindsey!  

Their couples shower was an all-around success and we can't wait for these two lovebirds to become Mr. & Mrs. Buis.

C is for CALEB!

I cannot believe my adorable nephew is ONE! My silly (a.k.a. my sister-in-law Katie) is wonderful and always asks me to design her invitations. For Caleb's birthday, she wanted everything to start with the letter C: 

C is for Caleb. C is for Celebrate. C is for cake balls & cookies.  

{I could keep going, but I'm sure you get the idea.}

Katie asked for a fun invite with fall colors and this is what I came up with for Caleb's first celebration.

My favorite part about parties is the decorative details. 

I love designing the invitation, but equally LOVE making the signs, food labels, gift tags, etc. to match the invite!

Katie is clever - everything on the food table started with the letter C! 

C is for....Chips with Chili con Queso, Corn Dogs, Chicken, Cakeballs & Cookies

Caleb's Food Labels

Mr. cutie pie himself! He's a bit uncertain about his cupcake :)

 

 All of Caleb's party people got to leave with a treat.

Continuing with the C theme, Katie handed out candy corn!

  

Here is a close-up of the gift tag I designed for the candy corn -

C you next year! Love, Caleb

Here is sweet Caleb saying, "C you next time" while sporting 

his Mr. ONE-derful glasses. Ugh, I can't get enough of his cuteness.

Happy Birthday Caleb! Your Auntie E & Uncky C love you soooo much!
