Carnival Inspiration...

So we're planning a Carnival 21st b-day party. Down the rabbit hole of Google, we found tons of interesting and exciting ideas to inspire us for the event. These are the ones we heart most...

Hats, Crowns & Crystals

This event was for a client's birthday. She asked us for elegant deco for her intimate dinner party. Being her crown birthday, she asked us to tie that into the deco in a fun way. We suggested mini fancy hats, and had one for each guest as they arrived to represent the 'crown' aspect of her birthday. The client's love for the damask print lead us to using it as the focal point of our deco. We also used a black chandelier decal throughout the deco and added some silver rhinestones on it.  We used crystals to add sparkle to the evening. Have a look...

Chandelier Decal

Mini fancy hats for guests as they arrive.

An example of the place setting with place cards for each guest.

Silver patterned balls were suspended above the white rose centrepiece. 

All catering for this event by TCP on the B.

The cake from Nabeela's Bakeshop matched the theme perfectly. Best of all those little hat cake-toppers are edible- they are made from milk chocolate! A fine looking piece of choc! YUM!

 

Belgian chocolate favours packaged to match the deco.

The design of all paper signs, place cards, food labels and menu cards are products of TCP on the B.

Pretty Simple

The Cutest Party on the Block put together a 22nd birthday lunch for a client and a few of her friends. She asked for pretty but simple, and do we know pretty! We used a pink mixed arrangement with a hint of purple as the centre piece and added floral and natural stone elements to the place settings. Little silver watering cans added a garden element to the table. A sweet little afternoon it turned out to be.

Handwritten name tags with tiny pegs. We heart!!

We used bright pink gerberers in fluted glasses at each place setting.

Pink patterned paper buntings added a whimsical touch to the deco. Any excuse for buntings at TCP on the B!

Afternoon tea anyone?

And to go with tea, the client ordered a simple but oh so yummy vanilla sponge from the masters of sweet treats and all things yummy, Nabeela's Bakeshop.
