Guests came from near and far to help celebrate Erin and Andrew’s elegant baby shower. The dusty blue and brown tones were perfect for a cold January winter day in the Midwest. With both parents being adventurous and mom-to-be with the nickname “Er bear”; it was only fitting to host an adorable teddy bear themed baby shower. […]

Monkey munch, bananas, and “One” Curious little monkey named Everett! I loved planning and designing a simple home party for sweet Everett who loves all things Curious George and can’t do anything without his stuffed monkey tagging along for the fun. Having a holiday birthday can be tough with busy schedules, bitter cold temps for […]

Eleven years?! How can this be possible? My sweet Liam love is turning eleven tomorrow and I can’t believe it. It makes me sad that time is going so fast, but happy watching him grow and become such a sweet, caring, and smart young man. When Liam arrived into this world it was 10 minutes […]

I always enjoy working with Marg to throw a party. She is detail-oriented, creative, and efficient when […]

A Summer mom brunch for end of the year school. Complete with mimosas, food, and perfume bar!
