There are always new ways to fancy up your next summer party/ bash/soiree! How about an ice cream bar for your party guests to gather around and build their own ice cream treats? These ideas work for brunches, bridal parties, backyard bbqs, or just any event where you’re entertaining friends and family. Little touches can make a big impact–like frozen ice cubes with edible flower petals and fruits. Presenting items in a fancy, pretty container can instantly up the “wow” factor at your party.
You can shake things up with new cocktail ideas, like a refreshing matcha soju drink. We hope these ideas get your creative juices flowing!

With the lovely weather everywhere around us, we couldn’t help but start daydreaming all the fun hangouts we’d love to plan for our friends! We scooped up some fun, and easy decor ideas if you’re planning a bridal shower or ladies’-only luncheon. If you’re on a strict budget, focusing on a center piece or just one color theme can make a dramatic effect on your event. We hope your bridal shower or party event goes well!

Last week, Donna Karan released her Resort 2013 fashion collection, and we couldn’t help think, “This is perfect wedding attire!” It is classic, chic, and elegant–appropriate for weddings, formal occasions, bridal showers, and for when you feel like being fancy. Some of her looks evoke this idea of a “woman in power” and we are on board with that. We are loving Donna Karan’s Resort 2013 collection.. what do you think?

Last week, our Creative Manager, Buu, had the amazing opportunity to attend WIPA – Wedding Industry Professionals Association marketing seminar at the breathtaking Pelican Hills Resort in Newport Beach, CA. Not only were we able to pick up great tips on how to better reach more beautiful brides (like yourself!), but we were treated to lush scenery, and delicious gourmet that went beyond our expectations. If you’re considering a destination wedding in Orange County or Newport Beach, we highly recommend considering the Pelican Hills Resort!
To give you an idea of how classy the day was, here are snapshots of the WIPA seminar. The theme was an elegant vintage-esque style that paired blush tones like peach and pink, with delicate and clean decor.
Our favorite part of the day? Entering the ballroom and being greeted with this stunner! A hanging wedding cake chandelier! So gorgeous 
The florist who created this is Nisie’s Enchanted Florist, while Pelican Hills Resort provided the wedding cake.
We think the elegant vintage look and style would make for a lovely wedding or bridal shower theme. Hope this inspires you!
We simply fell in love with this Style Me Pretty feature on a 50′s Bridal Shower! Themed bridal showers are great, but to have everyone dress up along with the decor is fabulous. We approve of this bridal shower idea because the bride and her guests can get all dolled up and feel extra special and cute. From the swimsuits to the station wagon, all of the details in this bridal party are well-thought out and adorable. Hope you enjoy looking through these pictures as much as we did.
