Our good friend and photog, Liz Banfield, always throws the most creative birthday parties for her kids! You may remember her son, Grier’s, lion themed birthday party from last year that we featured on the blog! Well, this year Grier wanted a Pirate theme and Liz did not disappoint. Guests dressed up in the swash-buckling finest and had their photo taken in front of the custom back drop Liz made with wall paper from Schumacher.

They also took turns guessing how many gold coins where in the loot jar. The winner got to keep the treasure!

Of course, you would never want to get between a pirate and his cake! Love the hat, Grier!

These fun party ideas would be easy for anyone to recreate! Thanks for sharing, Liz!

Nothing makes an expecting mother feel more loved than being surrounded by friends and family for a baby shower! We were so honored to be able to design a baby shower for our good friend, Lee. She was a previous bride of ours that loved her wedding color scheme of fresh green and white so much that she asked for it to be incorporated into the baby shower! We love getting out of the “wedding mind-set” and doing something new and exciting. We took our green inspiration and create a crisp, chic shower equipped with a guessing game to match guests with with their baby pictures…fun, right? Between mini cakes and beautifully decorated presents, this shower was such a fun experience. Here are a few pictures to share with you!

Remember when we told you that we would post Liz’s amazing pictures from the Engage!12 Gala? Well we didn’t forget! As you may be able to gather, we tend to oversee a lot of dancing at all of these wedding receptions, but we rarely get to join in on the fun! So when you put a whole group of event planners together in a macked-out ballroom you know that we are going to get down! No one loves a dance party more than Soirettes do…as you may be able to tell from these images!

The talented Sharon Sacks. We loved her dress this night!
