Bows or Burnouts: Baby Shower Reveal


It has been a busy few years... But this client has inspired me to get my events out. This shower I was hired to bring her vision together, with some images I came up with a color story for her, Powder Blue, Powder Pink and Gold. The spin on it all was the burnouts. Her husband is a legit BAYarea roadster and car enthusiast ;)

Concept: Bows or Burnouts
This was a baby shower/ gender reveal. The concept was to bring together the softness of a little girl and the rowdiness of a boy. Burnouts and Bows inspired wheels and bows throughout the theme. I was hired to come up with a custom photo booth, cupcakes, cakepops, dessert table, decorations, balloon installation, some shower activities for kids and adults. 

Details: The colors were a play of both pink and blue and all the neutral pastel tones in between. The small details were babies, pink bows, cars and wheels. 
Dessert Table: The color story followed through the table. I used pink champagne sequins to off set  and bring everything together. The desserts were so cute. Bows and cars accessorized. 
  
PhotoBooth with Balloon Arc: The lightng reflected the blue hues blended with the warm soft pink. The props were baby supplies, bottles, pacifiers, bibs, baby powder, giant bear and blocks, I used a rug and vintage chair to pull it all together.
    
Cupcakes and Cakesicles: The colors were the same throughout the event, When making these cakes I used pink white and blue, the cakes were enhanced with Chocolate donut wheels and white chocolate bows, The cakesicles were embellished similar bearing bows and mini chocolate cereal wheels. 
    
 Labels for PopBottles: The client wanted some cute giveaways so I created the labels for the pink and blue Barefoot wines.
  
Baby Name Suggestions Box: I created the Label and instructions for the name suggestion box. The boys suggestion cards were wheels and the girls were on bows.
       

Fun extras: Some kids activities included baby bottle squirt guns and painting the matchbox cars team blue or pink.
  
This Party was a blast!

Graduation 2021

I started with the clients senior photos. The photos captured were inspiration for the rest of the event. It is important for the event to have a theme and color story. I like every detail to come together perfectly. 
Her senior photos were used for the invitations for her event, her graduation announcements and her thank you cards. I created all of the paper and digital media for her event.
This Graduation party was fun. It was fitting to have a backyard BBQ. So that was easy. The color story for this event was black blue and teal.

For this event I created an enclosed Photo Booth, a Dessert Table with cake, cakesicles, diploma cookies. I also did a boba tea drink station, a Ballon Installation, and guest sign in. I was simple and classic with the decorations. I made all of the signage, banners, invites, announcements and thank you cards.  For the kids there was a very cute crayon bounce house. The decorations all came together so nicely.
