I don’t think I’ve ever thrown a party halfway. It’s either all or nothing in this house. When it comes to party planning, I take things very seriously.
That being said, I didn’t go all out for Quinn’s baptism reception. Sometimes less is more. At least that’s what I’m telling myself.
Life is just a little busy in our house right now, and I didn’t have time to bring a lot of pieces together. I grabbed this balloon garland kit on Amazon (and paired it with these small rose gold balloons) to start. That’s the easy part.
We cut a simple dove cutout with a Cricut machine, strung them on fishing line, and hung them behind the balloon garland. We alternated with a white cardstock and a white shimmery cardstock.
We featured custom cookies by Cellar Door Cookies, made a pretty charcuterie board, and had lots of pretty floral arrangements put together by my bestie (all of which she grabbed from Trader Joes). I grabbed a few signs from Hobby Lobby too (I may just return them after, don’t tell anyone) and voila! We have a party!
Because there’s no such thing as a party without favors, I had to do something cute for this too. I found these crosses at Hobby Lobby on clearance for less than $1/piece. I cut and pasted pink cardstock onto each one (it had a bright ugly print color before), and my bestie used her amazing calligraphy skills to write on the back of each one. Now we have something to remember this day by!
IT WAS A GREAT PARTY!!!!
It sure was!
Looks beautiful like all your parties are
Thank you!
