I always have a hard time planning for Valentines day. This year, a few friends and I (Julie and Lindsy) put on a girls brunch and invited a few local bloggers. I have never done anything like this before and really loved getting to know the local bloggers (and cooking for them)!
We put together a menu, table setting and a cute little primp area. I made the food and enjoyed being creative with the valentines theme. Who doesn’t love pink and sweet things?The three of us gave the food items super cute names like “love potion smoothie” (see below). A Fine Flourish did an amazing job at writing the labels and name tags. I love her modern calligraphy style. If only I knew about her for my wedding…..
Lindsy did an outstanding job at styling the whole room. It was so fitting and just perfect. Julie did a great job communicating, organizing and hosting. I loved working with these two, it was so much fun!
After we ate our meal, I gave a little cupcake piping and decorating tutorial. I loved sharing my ideas and enjoyed watching everyone make their masterpiece! I decided on angel food cupcakes since they’re so light and airy, a perfect dainty dessert. I topped it with my favorite, whipped cream cheese (so heavenly).
Please feel free to use our ideas at your galentines brunch 🙂
The menu included sprinkle popcorn, candied bacon, strawberry banana smoothie, donut and berry skewers, french toast bake, yogurt parfaits, spinach and onion eggs with gruyere, and angel food cupcakes.
A huge thank you to our fabulous vendors! They were really wonderful to work with and would definately work with them again.
