Modern Nautical Birthday Party

Modern-Nautical-Birthday-Party-Sweets

This Modern Nautical Birthday Party can have you setting sail for excitement with all sorts of seashore fun.  The skill of Bash by Ling was displayed throughout the beautiful decor of this event.

Using blue and white as the theme tones, a classic look was created with stripes throughout the venue.  A massive welcome sign was displayed on a lovely easel, so guests would know they were in the right spot for fun.

The indoor party area was well lit with lots of natural sunlight coming in the large windows.  A big table was set up buffet style for everyone to pick up treats. A layering of cloth including a striped one made for a lovely base.  A banner of blue and white with anchor art advertised the birthday boy splendidly.  Fish netting was also used to give a sealike effect to the decor.  Crates were expertly used for creating dimension on the table, letting each detail stand out admirably.  Shells and flowers made cute fillers for the table in between the tasty treats.  The backdrop to the table was a gorgeous pastel colored board that advertised the birthday beautifully.  To each side a tower of balloons made a sweet border.

Sugar cookies frosted with anchors sat up front for the guests to enjoy.  Macarons were made to look like clams with pearls, adding a creative touch.  Lollipops were decked out with little flags. Decadent cupcakes were frosted to perfection, blending with the theme in sailing fashion.  The centerpiece to the table was a two layered cake that was smoothly decorated with stripes, anchors and the birthday boy’s name as well.  It had an adorable sailboat as a topper.

The guest seating was set up at round tables to make for easy conversation and each place had a lovely menu so everyone would know precisely what was being offered.

Party Sprinkles stole the show with their wicked skill at this Flashy Neon Paint Party!  Designed for a very special 10 year old, vibrant colors and innovative ideas made this birthday celebration one of a kind.

The printables for the party were absolutely stunning with an array of bright colors printed out in fun ways.  The invitations advertised the art theme with perfection, showcasing a splash painted border surrounding a paint brush and artist pallet.  They are even made with an optional back design in bright stripes. Other adorable printables at this party included framed art advertising the beverage station and the buffet area, all made to match the invites beautifully.

The dessert table was a vision with all of the fluorescent tones in a wild arrangement. A lovely birthday flag banner was hung in the background over a window. It had flags in different colors with splashes of paint art that drew the eye. The cake looked as delicious as it did fun with a base of white and drips of neon tones going down the sides.  It had a cute artist pallet and art board with a paintbrush for the top that made a perfect centerpiece for the board. There were also some tasty looking cupcakes with a tie dyed look on the frosting that stood out.  Cake pops stood beside the cake in varying tones as well, making a sweet accent on the table. There was even a jar of candies for everyone to enjoy.

A section of the table was set aside for the cute beverage station that allowed everyone to create their own tasty drinks to enjoy.  Each bottle had bright swirly straw with a striped banner attached to it too.  Beside the drinks, thank you boxes held sweet surprises for the guests, each tied with bright ribbons.

Winter Wonderland In New England Party

Winter-Wonderland-In-New-England-Party-Cake

No time to hibernate when you can throw a glamorous Winter Wonderland In New England Party like this one! With One Fine Day’s styling, the gorgeous elements at this shoot could make a memorable occasion for many.

This gathering took place on a beautiful private property in Connecticut in January, taking advantage of the lovely snowy landscape.  All of the details laid out at this shoot were chosen to help encourage others to throw a wonderful winter land party with their own family and friends.

Elements used were ones that are simple to find around your house or yard, making it possible to create a similar atmosphere at your own party. This is a theme where DIY can give you an edge, for example, using a door as a table set on tree stumps.  This look offers a rustic charm that any outdoorsman can love. To give the tables a unique centerpiece, wine bottles can be utilized to hold white taper candles.  Tin plates offer a neat look along with brightly colored napkins tied in twine.

Any outdoor winter party can use a snuggle up bench with large blankets and an adorable wooden sign. Of course, to make it a truly classic get together, hot chocolate is a must-have.  In mason jar mugs, hot chocolate is easy to hold and adorable to look at. For a venue with a lake of frozen beauty, a ladder can make a cute ice skate holder.

Baskets to hold goodies offer a neat way to get your food, and of course winter favorites are sure to keep the guests coming up for seconds.  Caramel apples, fresh fruit, cheese and crackers and subs are all easy foods to prep and taste delicious! A sprig of greenery on white frosting along with a fresh fruit topping can make a cake a perfect celebratory treat too!

Anyone with a love for the sea life could enjoy this lovely Nautical Anchors Aweigh Birthday extravaganza. With the styling and concept design from Styled By Belle, this party had a modern look that really popped.

Red, white and blue helped give this venue a classic look with bold patterns expertly incorporated throughout the look. The dessert table was a fantastic display of snacks and decor.  It had a massive backdrop with blue and white stripes the set the tone for the party smoothly.  On each side of the backdrop, adorable oars were leaned against the wall with red and white chevron patterns on the ends. A wonderful personalized sign was in the center with cute anchor art and a golden frame.

The table was covered with a long black cloth, allowing the blue and white life preserver on the front to stand out brightly.  A fishing net was draped over the tablecloth at an angle, creating a cool effect.

Each of the treats was placed with precision, ensuring that everything was easy to see and grab. At the front, sugar cookies and macarons were set on flat white trays, drawing attention with their sweet detailing. Each snack had a personalized label that matched the theme.

At the back of the table a large white box was setup to display large jars chock-full of delightful candies for everyone to enjoy.  Each was wrapped with a rope of red, white and blue.  To the sides of the candy, tiered trays of delicious cupcakes stood tall.  The front and center of the table was reserved for the scrumptious looking cake.  Three layers of sea worthy decor topped with the most adorable little boat was certain to capture attention.
