Party Ghouls Boo Crew Halloween Party Part 1

Back in August I contacted Bonnie from Sadie Days Photography to see if she would be interested in photographing a mock Halloween Party. She agreed and we decided that it would be even more fun to use our children as models. I am so glad we did, the pictures of them are precious and I will forever treasure the ones with my daughter.

So I put out a call to my fellow Party Colleagues to participate. I wanted to show how amazing a party could be styled with a variety of items from different people in the party world.  The response was amazing and instead of one party display we ended up with two, a Children's party and and Adult themed party. 

Most of the items sent to me were party ready. Do to the time frame we were working with I had to assemble some items myself, like the cupcake kits sent to me by Red Velvet Stefanie, the Invitation & cupcake picks from Blush Printables, the menu item tents & t-shirts which were made using images from Oh My Gluestick (with permission of course). 

I used my glass collection and a few purchased items to style this party. I also bought the witches hats and vampire cape to complete the children's outfits. I think they look adorable! 

I am completely thrilled and honored to show you part one of our Boo Crew Halloween shoot.

A HUGE thank you to my friend (and newest addition to the Party Starters team) Dawn who helped me lug all of the items and tables down to this location along with my kids.While it was a pain getting everything down there and set up in the heat, it was SO worth it in the end. Another shout out to my husband for putting up with my mess and creative outbursts the day of the shoot. LOL  He will never know how much his support means to me! I love you Al!

Tomorrow...the Adult Table photos!
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Hugs,
Pam
