To effectively celebrate true love, Gold Leaf Event Design & Production  went above and beyond to create an event that would be remembered by all who were lucky enough to attend.  Using a Travel Theme for the bridal shower, all sorts of sweet elements were incorporated to reflect the beauty of the idea.

For a couple who had traveled the world together, a venue overlooking the lovely Aspen Mountain made a perfect setting for a celebration of a future to come. As guests came into the room they were welcomed by a vision of brilliant colors that was sure to impress. The guest tables were laid out as long rectangles, giving a cozy atmosphere.  The tables were covered in bold orange covers that make a neat accent for the vibrant floral displays running all the way down the center.  Even the dishware was in on the color fun with a rainbow of tones to bring the table to life.

Gourmet pizzas were one of the menu choices, giving a fun and upscale eating option that went with the theme by having locations that marked highlights of the bride and groom’s special relationship. Each has a sign letting the guests know what was on the pizza as well.  Not only were there delicious pizzas,  but colorful salads and appetizers added to the theme with a brightness that was sure to be enjoyed by all.

A true stunner at this party however was the celebratory cake/s.  In true lavish style, this cake boasted four tiers of tastiness that had guests wanting more.  Decorated to perfection, flowers adorned it from top to bottom in a layer of soft tones. A second cake was set right beside it, with a wonderful textured frosting that added a dramatic touch.

Zperfect Party nailed this gorgeous Cooking Themed Bridal Shower perfectly.  Taking the bride-to-be’s desire to expand on her kitchen skills, this theme was a fantastic way to incorporate future goals with fun for everyone who attended.

Taking advantage of beautiful weather, the venue used for this party was both indoors and outdoors, allowing for a spread that could easily accommodate a large group.  Adorable invitations were created with a personal touch that guests were certain to love.  With a smooth blend of pastel colors and fun clip art, they introduced this event in a unique and wonderful way.  Each invite even included a recipe card so that everyone could share their favorite ‘how-to’ for the bride-to-be to practice cooking.

The dishes served at the party were absolutely divine.  Each creation gave a professional vibe that was sure to have guests drooling.  Eggs and bagels were only the beginning of the various choices to dig into.  

A gorgeous spread of tasty desserts was laid out as well, ensuring that there was something for everyone to enjoy.  Using adorable decor like a cutting board with a cookie recipe printed on it, the dessert table was decked out in  this fantastic food theme.  Some tasty treats offered included delicious chocolate cupcakes perfectly frosted of course and a yummy chocolate frosted cake topped with pretty strawberries.

The floral arrangements made for the event were outstanding.  Each one was unique and had an array of brilliantly colored flowers that made great centerpieces.  With bold pinks, purples and reds, the bouquets stood out dramatically. Each was placed in a different style of vase, giving a charming vintage effect.

Outside a beverage area was set up to let everyone enjoy a tasty sip of different juices including fun cocktails.

Color inspired celebrations bring a charm to venues that really stands out and this sweet Blue-themed Bridal Shower is a brilliant example of that.  Fantastically captured by Ashley Therese Photography, this party was certain to be cherished.

The venue chosen for the party was amazing with a massive domed ceiling that gave an almost cathedral-like feeling.  In the center of the dome a giant chandelier hung over the room, setting an elegant stage with a soft illumination that reverberated throughout the entire area. The room was circular and had lots of windows to offer a natural lighting as well. With large draping curtains in each window of a golden hue, this room was a perfect example of pure sophistication.

Round tables were set up for the guests to sit at, keeping everyone close together for easy conversation. For the blue of the theme each table was covered in a soft blue that really enhanced the environment. In the center of the tables a super-tall vase was set with giant plume feathers in white, adding a decoration that wouldn’t interfere with guests interacting.

Each table had it’s own number printed out and framed in a silver frame.  Glasses were set at each setting that went with the theme brilliantly with a charming style. One sweet activity set up for everyone to participate in was the advice for the bride and groom.  Cute little round paper was pre-printed to allow everyone to give their thoughtful feedback.

The cake created for the special gathering was a gorgeous blend of blue and white that made a delicious bit of decor.  With two layers and an adorable pair of shoes on top, this treat was a winner!

Using the bride-to-be’s love of Tuscany, Lina of A Stunning Affair brought together a dream celebration based on this lovely locale. With her intricate planning and gorgeous photos from Christine Haws Photography, this party was certain to be a memorable experience for all who attended.

The venue set was outdoors on a bright sunny day, creating a lighthearted atmosphere for the guests. Each bit of decor was vibrant with color, giving the yard a natural and fun look. Yellow was the main theme color, being integrated into all of the decor beautifully. The yard even had a lemon tree, giving a natural effect that went brilliantly with the Tuscany theme.

The tables for the guests to sit at were set up in long rectangles, bringing everyone together in a cozy family style.  Umbrellas were placed down the line to provide a sweet look and a bit of shade. Each individual place setting had an adorable sunflower with a tag, dividing up teams for a fun party event.  Using a neutral tone for the table cover, the bright yellow color of the flowers stood out dramatically. The chairs had a nice neutral tone as well. Centerpieces used for the guest tables were fantastic floral arrangements with lemons for added effect.

Food was served on pizza stones, giving an authentic Italian vibe and peach Bellinis was the beverage of choice.  With tasty red velvet cupcakes featuring cream cheese frosting, this gathering had a bit of everything you could want.

Some cute activities included at this sweet party included a trivia quiz to see who knew the bride-to-be the best, it was printed and placed on a neat yellow frame. And no party would be complete without a little Jeopardy! From the decor to the games, this event was sure to be enjoyed.
