Project Details
Flowers:As a florist I was fortunate to save cost on doing it my self. However we did do topiaries out of styrofoam covered in moss with butterflies which were much more affordable and looked great. We sourced our tea pots from dollar stores and donation centers.
Linens: To keep the over all look consistent we used black and white with gold. Then when picking vases and details we stuck with that color pallet.
Cake & Cupcakes: For the cake and cupcakes we went with home made! We made the "Eat Me" Cupcake Toppers using a circle template on Word and a circle punch from a local craft store. To Do: You print your circles, cut and decorate and then you glue a skewer between two circles and your done. For the cake on top we just made a small cake and decorated with pre-colored fondant. For the Pop Up Book Topper look we had a comic book illustrator (who is also a great friend) and asked him to make the different portions. We used the same concept as the cupcake toppers by cutting the drawing out and gluing a skewer between the drawing and a back piece. For the Stand we purchased a stand from a local Home Goods and sprayed it hot pink.
Details: We had looks of fun with the details. We saved all the pickle jars I have been eating along the pregnancy and used them for games. We had an Advice Jar, Raffle Jar and other games. For the Seating Chart I used wooden dowels to create scroll like signs and hung these from the centerpiece on the signing table. For the Signing Book I purchase Alice in Wonderland and invited guests to write a special note to Ava.
I love any and all things black and white stripe and fresh flowers! Just gorgeous!
