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!

It is always wonderful when the weather cooperates and parties can be thrown outdoors in the bright sun. This lovely shower celebrating a sweet bride-to-be used yellow to represent her cheery disposition, outdoors where the light could create a natural brightness to the entire venue.  With exquisite photography by Katee Grace, each moment was captured with brilliant clarity.

An adorable “Here Comes the Bride” welcome sign was placed out front with handwriting on a chalkboard so all of the guests would know they were at the right spot.

Out in the yard the table was set up family style, ensuring a warm and cozy atmosphere. Taking advantage of a fantastic tree overhanging the yard, cute little paper bells were hung on bright yellow crimped strings, filling the area with theme-based art.

The table cover had a sweet yellow polka dots and white poms that made a wonderful base for the bright yellow and white daisies that ran along the length of the whole thing. They were set in glasses and slim vases to give a neat effect. The chairs matched the look with a classic white color. Each place setting had a napkin that was tied off with little daisy decorations.

Delicious foods were offered like fresh fruit salad, so the guests could all enjoy a little something. Each item had a personalized tag to add to the theme while letting everyone know what there was to try.  Each bit of venue was decorated to match the yellow theme perfectly.

One adorable decoration that was definitely one-of-a-kind were little yellow birds made of metal. They had a vintage-style with little daisy eyes that looked fantastic. To finish them off, each had a daisy placed on top. Theses were set with the beverages, giving a bold yellow touch to the look.

Using the whimsical fun of the classic Alice in Wonderland, hosts Susan and Dawn created a magical experience for their best friend’s daughter’s celebration. Chrystal Cienfuegos Photography captured this event in exquisite detailing. A favorite section of the tale brings Alice to a mad tea party, which was used for this wonderful theme.  With a blend of fabulous colors and all sorts of eclectic decor, this party was certain to be a blast!

The innovation with the decorations was outstanding. A sign was made with arrows pointing in all directions with fun little words and each was painted in different colors with fun pictures of flowers and butterflies to add a soft touch.  The bold display of colors everywhere really made this event one of a kind.  Each bit of decor had it’s own unique look, giving a fantastic imaginative effect.

One guest table was covered with a deep purple cloth, so the white tea set stood out marvelously along with the bright napkins and flowers.  A fun centerpiece with flowers stood in the center very tall so the guests could still easily see each other when sitting.  It was decorated with fun little dangling strands for a neat look. All sorts of chairs were used, giving that eccentric look that we all associate with the Mad hatter’s tea party.  And no Alice adventure would be complete without an assortment of clocks around!.  

Other fun details included beverages tagged with little notes saying “Drink” in vintage style fonts and food with tags saying “Eat” to match. Giant colorful poms hung from the ceiling to fill the room with the vibrant tones. For a delicious treat a two-layer cake was made and decorated to match the tea party theme splendidly. It had red diamonds around the bottom layer and a neat little handle and steam decoration on the top layer.
