Coral and Red Birthday Celebration {A Low Country Boil}

 

 

 I celebrated my 39th Birthday this past weekend and I'd like to share some of the images with you as I am just too excited of how everything came together!

I wanted a Low Country Boil and Peach Desserts. Brittany at Edible Details helped me announce the day's festivities and menu with the cutest low country boil fondant topper.

 

 

 

Low Country Boil

 

 The hubby did such a wonderful job with our first low country boil dinner and made my wishes come true by helping me set up a very cool and casual dinner table in our backyard.

My friend Wendy Symons made my day with a beautiful pumpkin cake because it's obvious I love Fall! Although I went a little back to Summer with the menu... I loved her cake and the amount of time and details she put into it. It was gorgeous and delicious too!
 

 

 On the peach desserts I had peach bourbon cupcakes which I created inspired on these. But let's face it, I am not a baker and I made mine with a yellow cake mix, fresh pureed peaches and 1 1/2 tablespoons of honey bourbon. That's it! Toppers also by the wonderful Edible Details.

 

 

 The peach cookies inspired on cookies by Bake at 350 are by KJ Cookies and I absolutely love how they turned out!! So peachy cute!

 

 

Fun, fun, fun! Cheerfully excited to kick off another great year!

 

 

 

 



A Wicked Soiree

 

I styled this awesome fancy witch dessert table for a very special 14th year old birthday girl.  She wanted something glittery, fancy and with witches. It also happens that her favorite color is purple.  Perfect!

 

 

Megan wanted to see her name included and I thought it would be perfect to add it on picture frames, which I took the glass out of and cut the glittery letters out of stencils to add to scrapbook paper. They hung from ribbons and looked super cute! 

My favorite is the cake on this awesome stand with witches feet from a past Halloween Party, A Witch's Halloween . A friend of ours, Wendy, baked a gorgeous purple rosette cake including the cute hat and spider toppers!

 

 

Other desserts included chocolate cake push up pops with fondant witch's hats also by our friend Wendy. Cookies, cupcakes, cakepops and smores on little boxes because the girls were having a fire in the back later.

 

 

 

There was also Witch's Brew to go with some great pizza for the girls before they started on a fun line up of games including Pie Eating Contest and Apple Bobbing.
