Sigma’s CHRISTMAS CRUSH 2009

OK… words wont do much here and you’ve probably already stopped reading this… BUT we have to give a shout out to Sara Renee, www.sararenee.com for stopping by a few minutes before the event to snap these shots, THANK YOU SARA!

And we would be insane not to thank Black Fox Farms for their hospitality and hard work. Joe, without you and your crew, this event wouldn’t have gone so well. THANK YOU JOE!

Melissa Steve, you were crucial to the success, THANK YOU! Even though you are MUCH with child, you were amazing!

This was the biggest undertaking since we opened our doors. We did almost everything you see below minus food, programs, band, and the greenery. The Christmas trees and other greenery were simply brought in from Black Fox Farms nursery where this barn is located.

Now… FEAST!

Here’s how we pull off a SWANK baby shower! Melissa Steve is our assistant planner and coordinator but today was HER DAY to be dazzled!

Event Theme/Description: A two hour shower in a local home with a DAISIES & BUTTERFLIES theme. In the kitchen I had cupcakes [yellow, orange, purple], a chocolate fountain [with all dipping food items], cookies, and other light snack items. I also designed a candy bar/station with an array of colorful candy [pink gum balls, lollipops, peach gummy rings, pixie sticks, candy sticks, and more]. The candy bar/station was a favors table for each guest to take a bag of goodies on their way out. I also filled baby bottles with colorful jelly beans and skittles that Melissa took home for her soon-to-be baby girl! We had approximately 30 guests and it was a huge success for Melissa! Just ask her about the gifts :) Check out the pictures below for a taste [in your dreams] of our latest SWANK & SAVVY event!
