Is it only Tuesday?!? There is a lot of week left but that is actually a good thing because I have lots going on! I am in full party-planning mode. I know that I showed you the invitation for Monograms and Mimosas but I haven't told you all about Cupcakes and Cocktails yet ... and it is actually occurring this Friday!
*Invitations ordered from Wedding Paper Divas ... such a fun company!
So for months I knew I wanted to have a Cupcakes and Cocktails par-tay for my girlfriends around Valentine's Day and I began planning this party in my head. Well my friend Page got engaged so I decided to definitely have the party and give it in honor of her. It is going to a small little gathering of her bridesmaids and in my mind it is going to be super cute ... lets just pray that I execute! Haha!
I am a little bit nervous because this is the first real party that I have hosted at our house AND I am giving it all alone. So basically if it sucks it will be all on me. Kidding, kidding. I really think that it is going to turn out fab! I am serving appetizers, wine, a "pink drink", and 3 different types of cupcakes - I am making 1 myself but the other 2 are being "professionally" done! Everything is going to be pink and black ... I have lots of little details that I will share but they will have to be revealed on Monday because I don't want to spoil everything for the bride and any other guests that are readers! In keeping with the pink and black theme I think I am going to sport this number ...
the pink dress and maybe I will add some black jewelry. I had this on in a picture I posted previously and a couple of you asked where it was from (I am very bad at answering questions sometimes). You can find it here ... all the way at the bottom on the left!
So if this party is a success Cupcakes and Cocktails might become a tradition ... next year you all can be invited!!!
Wish me luck! I probably won't be around anymore this week because I have some work travel and such but I will give you all the details from the shin-dig on Monday.
xoxo~
ps- I have to make it known that I have the world's greatest husband ... we ordered a leather chair and ottoman for Christmas and long story short it was delivered to his parents house who live 4+ hours away. Guess who took off work and is making the 8 hour journey for the chair? Yep. Bless his heart but I had to have that chair by Friday. You understand.

what an adorable party idea!! an engaged bestie of mine wants to have an all-girls sleepover while her beau is out of town for his bachelor party, and i will most definitely be stealing this idea!!
I really like all the different styles you all have going on. Its good to be different.
Oh my goodness! This is the best idea ever! I think I may steal it sometime...
a few things:
1.) LOVE that dress....do you have it in black too? i thought you had a picture wearing a black one w/ a bow on the front. i must buy this!
2.) you girls are beautiful!!!!
sorry to be a pest, but i'm dying to get that dress and tried the link and couldn't find that exact one.
do you happen to know the style or where you bought it? i shouldn't buy it, but it has my name all over it.
by the way, i LOVE your blog!
