Something Sexy, Something Sweet...

My best friend Jen is getting married on October 2!  We have been friends since we were nine years old.  She was my Maid of Honor in my wedding two years ago, and I am honored to be the Matron of Honor in hers!  I was pleased to host and plan this Lingerie Shower for her ~ it was so much fun!  Here are some pictures from the evening...

The invitations


Chocolate Diet Coke Cupcakes with Whipped Cream Frosting


Marshmallow Pops inspired by Hostess with the Mostess


Food consisted of light, but yummy appetizers & pasta salad.  Spanish Sangria and Mike's Hard Pink Lemonade was served to go along with the color scheme (and because they are both delicious!).


I got to use many of my gifts to the bride as decor.  So fun!
The "Ooh~La~La!" banner added a nice touch.


That's me on the left and Jen, the bride (fittingly in white) on the right.  Doesn't she look beautiful?!
Jen went to FIDM and has worked as a fashion designer for GUESS until she recently started working at a popular Bridal Salon, Mon Amie.  Given her career in fashion, I thought it would be totally fitting to play one game where all of the girls designed "Wedding Night Lingerie" for Jen.  The game was hilarious!


After the shower, we headed out to Newport Beach for a little Ladies' Night out.  We had a blast!  We spent the night in the suite and spent the following day lounging at the pool of the Marriott, Newport Beach Bayview ~ it doesn't get much better than that!

I had so much fun designing everything for this shower; from the invitations to the menu, and the decor & games.  Thanks to all of the ladies who came out and showered Jen with love, gifts, and fun!  I love you, Jen.  Congratulations ~ Can't wait for the wedding!

{Inspiration} Marshmallow Treat Pops

I am a huge fan of Bakerella's Cake Pops, and I've made them quite a few times. Although Cake Pops are always a yummy hit,  they can be a pretty time consuming to make.  Because I am actually hosting my best friend's Lingerie Shower tomorrow {and planning all of the drinks, decor, food, and games for the evening} I found myself needing a quicker alternative. 

While perusing one of my favorite blogs, Hostess with the Mostess, I came across...sound the trumpets...Marshmallow Treat Pops! 



Mine are finished and adorable!  Best of all, they were so EASY to make, pretty tasty, and very cute!

A big THANK YOU to Hostess with the Mostess for the inspiration, photos, and instructions!


Stay tuned for photos from Jen's Lingerie Shower!

Jen's Lingerie Shower

I am so excited to host my best friend's Lingerie Shower this Friday.  I have been crafting away all day, and although I would love to post "sneak peeks" of what I've been working on, I don't want her to see what I have planned!

The theme will come from these invitations that I created:

And this is where we will be partying...

I chose this location because I thought it would be extra special for our intimate gathering!  Not only that, but we will be in a prime area of lovely Newport Beach so we can go out for a fun Ladies' Night Out after the shower.  As a gift to the bride we will be spending the night in the suite and relaxing at the pool the next day. 

I can hardly wait!
