This past Friday, we celebrated my friend Heather's birthday with a little champagne & desserts themed party at my place! You can see the original inspiration board for the party right here. I absolutely loved how this party turned out. Just a few champagne cocktail recipes and a sprinkling of desserts mixed with pink and sparkly decorations created the perfect setting to ring in a fabulous birthday. Here are some snapshots from the party and later this week I'll give you all the details on the champagne cocktail set up plus some freeeee printables!

Oh my gosh - totally wanting to try the snickerdoodle cupcakes! What kind of icing did you use? It looks lovely and smooth compared to the piped example on the link. Just curious...
ReplyDeletei used the same icing as the recipe in the link- but I did pipe it onto these cupcakes using a ziploc bag with a small hole cut in the corner!
DeleteHope that helps!

This is superb! Can you tell me where you got the sequin tablecloth from? I've been looking everywhere for one just like it!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteHi D.
It is simply 3.5 yards of 60 inch wide gold sequin fabric!
I purchased mine in downtown Los Angeles in the fabric district.
Hope that helps!
-Natalie
I second D's request. Can you tell me where you gold the tablecloth? I'd love to have one for my bridal party table.

Would love to know the font names you used for your signage! Your parties are amazing, I just made a glitter card stock "COCKTAILS" sign and the multicolored tissue paper garland. Your directions are exact to a T (giving the font size, width length of tissue paper) thank you!
ReplyDeleteThe font is called "carolyna pro" and you can purchase it from myfonts.com
DeleteYou can also download all the cocktail signs in this post: http://www.mintlovesocialclub.com/2012/11/friday-cocktail-champagne-cocktail-bar.html
Can you tell me where you purchased your gold striped plates? I've been looking everywhere. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThey are paper plates that I found at Home Goods. I have seen very similar ones at Target!
DeleteThe directions for the drinks are very adorable! I am trying to create similar ones for my friend's 27th birthday. What did you use to create them? Picmonkey?
ReplyDeleteHi Kaity
DeleteI actually design them using Adobe Illustrator. You can download the ones I created in this post: http://www.mintlovesocialclub.com/2012/11/friday-cocktail-champagne-cocktail-bar.html
Hope that helps!

Hi Natalie.
ReplyDeleteDo you mind sharing the name of the Fabric store that you purchased your gold sequin tablecloth.
Planning on making a trip to Downtown in the next week or so.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Abbee!
DeleteI was just at the store that sells it recently and they dont have any BUT there are plenty of fabric stores right by it that do. Just go to the intersection of Maple and 8th!
Hope that helps!
