Recently, I had an amazing opportunity to work on a whimsical and fun Mustache and Red Lip theme party for two wonderful sisters, Allie and Kit. 

My amazingly talented photographer friend, Ellie introduced me to the two sisters and they both wanted to combine two celebrations in one! My amazingly talented cake designer friend, Abigail also helped create awesome cake designs to make the theme come alive!

Allie had recently graduated and Kit wanted to celebrate recent birthday--and they both had a vision of having fun mustaches and red lips as a fun theme to celebrate the two special and memorable events! Allie (the mustache) and Kit (the red lips) wanted two dessert stations, a photobooth and taco station and the whole party to be decked out in 'staches and lips!

After several meetings and collaborating with Abigail, Allie and Kit, the vision came alive!

I felt inspired to do a male and female, ladies and gentlemen look with touches of whimsical designs of paper made goods, vintage pieces with feminine and masculine touches. 

For the dessert stations, we had a feminine vanity and a masculine barber shop!

We had a wonderful vanity full of cupcakes made by Abigail with apothecary jars and vintage bowls filled with candies. I also created labels for all the goodies and had borrowed Allie and Kit's antique mirror for the vanity. (The vanity had "L'amour" in red lipstick on it!)

For the masculine barber shop, we had an amazing mustache cake designed by Abigail with mustache and comb details on the cupcakes. I also made mustache candy pops and recreated a vintage barber shop for all the delicious goodies. 

For drinks and sips, we had a lemonade stand for the ladies and a beer bar stand for the gents!

We also had an Anthropolgie inspired taco station with vintage luggage and details AND a filipino dessert bar designed with feminine touches of lace, floral and vases. 

Lastly, we had an awesome DIY photobooth, tacos catered and made fresh on the grill. For entertainment, Allie and Kit had a fun filled night filled with acoustic sounds and amazing performances from local bands. All the guests donned their mustaches and red lips in their best ladies and gent outfits!!!

We couldn't end the night without a Happy Birthday song for Kit and a congratulations to the new grad, Allie! 

BIG kiss and whisker THANK YOU to all the family and friends who came out to help with the event and celebrate in their staches and lips!!

It was truly a blessing to work with such wonderful sisters, Allie and Kit and with my good friends, Ellie and Abs to celebrate two wonderful events on a fun filled night full of 'staches and lips! 

XOXO and Whiskers kisses, 
Sweet Caroline
