Glamping Baby Shower (what is glamping?... Glamorous Camping
at its finest)! What better location for
this rustic, elegant baby shower theme for Holly Humphreys Reyes then her own childhood
back yard at The Humphreys Estate!
Planning this shower was a dream and so much fun! The combination of rustic elements and
elegance incorporating burlap and bling, tulle and tiaras, made for one
fabulous baby shower (just look at the pictures)!
The setting:
The beautiful Humphreys Estate where guests drove up to the
driveway adorned with pink and lime- green hanging lanterns and a pink carpet
grand entrance where guests could stop to take pictures at our rustic photo
booth (a hanging frame from a tree) and we have to say we did have fabulous
props to choose from.
We ordered the invitation from Anders Ruff http://shop.andersruff.com/glam-camping-girl-glamping-birthday-party-invitation
(One of our favorite of all go to
website & blogs, forever and ever that’s how much we love them)!
The décor:
Handmade burlap pennants and garlands of strips of tulle, pink
and lime green fabric hung from trees with mini hanging chandeliers. Burlap and lace table runners with centerpieces
of birch wood containers and mason jars wrapped in twine and rhinestone accents
filled with pink larkspur, Esperance roses and green grass balls. The cake table had a tulle tutu skirt (hand
made by Holly herself) and was the perfect accent for their fabulous tree stump
cake made by Monique of Crazy Cakes by Design http://www.crazycakesbydesign.com/index.html
Mini Angus Beef Burgers with Tillamook Cheddar, Hot dogs,
fresh berries served in martini glasses, and of course campfire beans.
Favors:
We made S’mores and trail mix in little to go treat bags
(thank you Anders & Ruff for the fabulous labels)
We also set up a Pop Corn station since Holly was “Ready to
Pop”. One of our favorite moments was
when one big sister told her little brothers to try that one (it was the
jalapeno flavor)… Oh the look on their sweet innocent faces when the heat hit
em!
It was a perfect baby shower (if we don’t say so ourselves)
and so much fun was had by all. We can’t
wait for this little one’s first birthday party coming in October 2013; stay
tuned…
