While browsing around on Pinterest we found this amazing fathers day craft. I know we are a little early but if your DIY skills are lacking you’ll need it!

Summer Fun

Here are some really cute ideas for your backyard summer parties. This is our favorite time of year; well those of us that manage to brave the Texas heat! We wanted to share one of our favorite backyard summer party themes.

Lemonade Tea as a signature drink (Served Virgin or Toxic), on this very attractive rustic adult lemonade stand.

For a centerpiece consider using a wood inspired vase, oh how we adore this natural look.

Congratulations to the Class of 2013

Graduation day is one of the defining moments in our lives, it seems so for off in the distance and in the blink of an eye four years have passed.

Congratulations to all of the 2013 graduates, including my mommy!

The Toddler Takeover

I was so excited to plan my youngest son Caleb's 1st birthday party, and was talking to a colleague the other night about how when in this business what you mean to be small can easily morph into hundreds of dollars later! I am thankful my husband Alfred always seem to reel me back in. So please enjoy these pictures of my little man's 1st birthday.

I hope you enjoy this glimpse into my sons party and a little planning for myself. I'd like to give thanks to a few good friends. Caleb's cake was courtesy of the The Cake Diva, some assistance with set up from Toni Bowman at Little Things and others who came to the rescue during the toddler takeover.

Save The Date

When thinking of save the dates I feel they should in some way reflect a combination of your personal style and theme of your wedding. As I shared with my friend Leslie this morning, if you’re into music send small personalized vinyl records with your save the date information printed on them.  Leslie is also very into home décor and as a decorator (www.etsy.com/shop/lillyhemn) I also mentioned personalized throw pillow covers with “Save the Date” stitched on the font; this would very much represent her personal style and image. Not wanting to leave out her fiancé we talked further about her wedding details and she is getting married in ViVa Las Vegas! A cute way to send a unique save the date would be sending personalized poker chips; this is celebrating the location of the wedding while avoiding overkill of the Las Vegas wedding cliché.

The Future Mr. & Mrs.

 We are so excited about the future Mr. & Mrs. Hopson; I want to personally welcome Dannie + Kenneth to the Swank Soiree family. We look forward to exceeding your expectations and a relationship with you both for many years to come.
