Happy Monday Y’all! Sorry I have been slack on the blog posts this week! Tara and I just got back from the Special Event Conference in Tampa, Florida this past week. I promise to blog on that this week and share you our experience…it was great!

But first, I wanted to let you all know something we are so excited about! Tara has the privilege of speaking at the upcoming Chapel Designers Group in March!

This amazing collaboration of floral designers is the brain child of Holly Chapple, who saw the need for a forum of floral designers to meet, share ideas and bond in their common industry.

This year Holly has a fabulous line-up of events! Did I mention we are all meeting in NYC?? How fun. First, we will head to the offices of the always wonderful Matthew Robbins where Matthew will show us some of this favorite designs and creations from his new book Matthew Robbins Inspired Weddings.

Along with a class led by Tara, the group will also go on a shopping trip through the flower district as well as take a class at the Floral School of NYC!

Doesn’t this sound like so much fun?? Want to join us?? Good because you still can!! Check out Holly’s blog to find out more info on how to sign up! I promise you won’t be disappointed!

Happy Monday to you! Planning weddings for a living is fabulous…but getting to plan smaller events is a lot of fun too! I love doing birthday parties for my boys. It is so fun to see them come up with ideas for their own parties! Right now my oldest son, Aiken, is very into dinosaurs. (Total boy, right???) So naturally, when I asked him what kind of birthday party he would like, the dino decor became a must. We planned the party at a pool and had a full afternoon of sweet treats, swimming and extinct party guests. Here are a few pictures I was able to snap while trying to keep up with the kids! Hope you enjoy!

Custom tags on the favor bins

I cut dinos out of fabric and stitched them to a green linen for the display table

Cupcakes and Mini Ben & Jerry’s Ice Creams for dessert
