Book Party {Chapter II} Dessert Table Library and More

You can find Chapter I of this lovely Book Party here.
{You'll find the styling for escort cards, guestbook, book themed centerpieces, and a beautiful cake display in black and white}

I couldn't fit all the goodness in one post, and I left the best for last!
 An amazing library themed dessert table with books as stands and our daughter's favorites as favors.
 
 
Since we had a cake table, with extra goodies, this table served as a favors table and treat bags were set up for the guests to take the goodies home.
Some of the favorites are tigers, butterflies, rock candy, school spirit cookies, Jeff Gordon, faith, and of course...books.
 


I planned a sort of coordinating to the table that you can see in the picture below with all the colors and patterns we were already using in the party. Just for the fun!
The 'chalkboard' look of the library background was created with black fabric and actually paint. Inspired on chalkboard walks. The books served as stands and there's wooden cake stands in black and white and ivory in the last row from the lovely stands found at Sweet Display. Bookmarks for labels with the attractive feel of letterpress by Fourth Year Studio.
 
 The Ribbon Cutters did an amazing job at styling everything for us that day. I can't believe they actually understood my little maps but great minds think alike!!!
 
Here's the details!

Book Party {Chapter 1}

What a better way to celebrate a little bookworm turning into a butterfly and flying away from home than with her own passion? Reading. 

This book party was a celebration for our daughter Tiana as she graduated high school to start the University of Tennessee in the fall of 2013.
It was created with all the elements that she has liked through her school days, (tigers, butterflies, pancakes, her favorite color blue) her faith and her love for books.
Enjoy!
Check out  the Save the Date we sent out to friends and family traveling, on an earlier post here. Both created by Blush Printables.






I had to divide to this long but wonderful post in two but please check back for Chapter II for the Dessert Table Library, a Reading Nook and many more details of the party!
