Gorgeous setup! Where did you get the blue linen for your gift table? It’s the perfect shade of color I’ve been searching for!

What’s in your Kid’s Kits? I’m ever so curious as we have 32 children attending our event and we’re trying to think of clever ways to keep them entertained but not in a way that will distract from the event. Ideas?

Hi Callie - I had little toys/party favors in the kids’ kits - necklaces, bracelets, rulers, little games, and crazy straws - they really liked them and the next day, I saw them at their houses, so I think they really enjoyed them :)

Mrs. Plum - Thank you, thank you, thank you. A great idea without having to literally set up lots of games in a separate area at our reception site.
