Celebrate You Events (2024)

Happy October 1st! This is the perfect day to wrap up this fabulous Oktoberfest party, so I’m finishing with all the treats. We had a delicious and stunning cake. It included florals and feathers which were a nod to the “Trachten Hut” (the Bavarian hat with the feather worn by men). Amazing macarons in navy, and to-go boxes of soft pretzels because what’s a German beer party without pretzels!! We even had a beer shaped acrylic puzzle as a favor and memento. What would you reach for first?

Oktoberfest, but make it demure. I’m still in love with the rich, earthy colors of this tablescape and all the details of this party! From the personalized hanging Labkuchenhertzen (heart cookies) on the chairs to the hops in the florals - this one was “so viel Spaß”!

Happy Friday everyone - I think it’s time for a beer! 🍻

You know I have a soft spot for flowers. I mean, I would literally have a giant cutting garden with fresh cut flowers in every room of my house if I could. Some day!

When I gave Tara the color palette and design idea I had no idea she would create these stunning arrangements. The vases made them pop even more, and if you look closely she incorporated pencils and crayons in tonal colors. So fun!!

For those of you wondering, no I’m not planning on continuing my event business here in Germany. Although I sure do miss bringing talented women together to create. Hope all your kiddos are off to a great start to the school year!

An Olympic-inspired spread fit for champions! I chose foods in the 5 Olympic colors and even added custom acrylic flames to torch cupcakes. I reused yogurt jars for a handheld snack of hummus and veggie sticks, and simply raided the Trader Joe’s mini appetizers to fill in. Entertaining doesn’t have to be hard, and it’s even more fun with the food is in theme too! What would you add to this spread?

Who’s excited for the Olympics?! 🙋‍♀️ I cannot wait! Gymnastics, track and field and swimming are my favorite to watch. Let me know in the comments below what yours are!

I created this Olympic inspired party for the last Olympics, had to include a signature cocktail. With custom stir sticks and colored rims these glasses added a festive touch. I even created a game testing everyone’s flag knowledge! It was a lot of fun. More to come, so stay tuned!

This entire Independence Day party was inspired by The Beach Boys. You know their song Surfing USA, right? Well, this is my take on it. Patriotic colors complimented with natural dried flowers, shells and light wood details. So much fun! 🇺🇸

Abigail, the 1952 Chevy truck all dolled up for a fabulously patriotic party, new wheels and all! I had so much fun working with Krista chatting about my vision for the truck and building the whole party around it. This is one of many events we did together, and Krista’s kindness, collaborative mindset and positivity always shone through. I’m blessed to have met her.

Memorial Day is coming up in the US, so I thought I’d share this retro ice cream social party for inspiration. As well as give my memory with Krista another place on my feed. A special woman loved by so many.

It’s May!! With Cinco de Mayo coming this weekend, I’m just over here reminiscing this fabulous Mexican themed party I helped plan with my mother-in-law. I designed the Hunter Cantina logo and menu, and continued the color palette in the plate colors, napkins, flowers, banner. Custom stir sticks were a fun addition!

Do you have any plans to celebrate?

If you know Bode, you know he’s a pretty cool guy. From his long blonde hair to his black belt pushups. But more than that, he’s just a guy you want to hang out with. He’s ALWAYS down to play games, so we put together some fun activities to complete (with a playful spin) before tie-dying tshirts and ending up in the pool.

I have lots of tips for throwing a tie dye party, and when I get things sorted here I’ll finally find time to write a blog post about it, but for now:

🎉 Hire help because it’s messy! You’ll be busy entertaining, so have someone else man that activity. I hired the kid’s babysitter.
🎉 Buy to-go food containers. I prepped these for each kid, so their name & correct size tshirt was in their box ready for them along with latex gloves and rubber bands.
🎉 Disposable tablecloth. Go for plastic because you don’t want to damage your table.
🎉 Paper towels and lots of them! Put them under the kid’s shirt as they dye.
🎉 Aprons I’d say are optional depending on the age group. I didn’t for these guys, but I did mention on the invite to come prepared for tie dying.
🎉 Care card. I created a small care card for the kids to give their parents with easy instructions on what to do next.

Jumping back in time (because I have had a lot on my plate these past couple months 😅) to my youngest son’s 7th birthday!! His birthday is the beginning of December which is when Florida has its best weather. He chose the theme (he LOVES rainbows), so I ran with it! Honestly, I was thrilled it wasn’t a video game theme!

I had a ton of fun making that fringe backdrop. I love the added texture it brings. And guys - I did my own balloons. Obviously not as good as the professionals (especially because I didn’t order enough 😂), but it worked.

I’ll be sharing more from this super fun party this week, so stay tuned!
