Plan A New Year’s Eve Party On Any Budget!

The 2012 New Year is here and what a great way to celebrate by inviting your friends and family to a party! Ring in the New Year in style with plenty of gold and silver decorations. Gold and silver décor is popular for a shiny New Year but try accents such as blue or green for a festive pop of color! Bulk tableware is a great way to save money and celebrate without breaking the bank. There are a lot of ways to decorate for cheap on a small budget. Buying in bulk helps to keep costs low and you won’t spend all night doing dishes instead of celebrating! Whether you’re planning a last minute party for New Years or planning ahead to watch the ball drop, send out a simple E-card to notify all your friends about the shin-dig! Throw out a few easy party appetizers and a little sparkly décor, like these New Year’s Eve Cupcake Wrappers, and your party is all set! Plus, cupcakes make great take home party favors that won’t leave a hole in your pocket.

Michael Jordan Engaged to Yvette Prieto

He just did it. NBA Hall of Famer – and possibly the greatest basketball player of all time – Michael Jordan, is now officially engaged to long time Cuban-American model girlfriend Yvette Prieto. Jordan, 48, and Prieto, 32, have been an item for some time now, and the sports star finally popped the question on Christmas Day. We are thrilled for the couple and excited to see the future Mrs. Michael Jordan’s ring!

A number of burning questions remain to be answered: Will Jordan and Prieto sign a pre nuptial agreement? When will Michael Jordan and Yvette Prieto set a wedding date? Will they opt for a golf themed wedding? And will the first couple of basketball send wedding guests home with the latest Air Jordans (which caused quite a shopping frenzy this holiday season!) Since Jordan is a cigar aficionado, we recommend a personalized cherry wood cigar humidor as a gift to the members of his wedding party.

“Around the Clock” Bridal Shower Theme Ideas!

A bridal shower is a fun time for the bride to celebrate her new adventure into marriage. Close friends and family all join around the bride to be for a special celebration, typically over gifts and food. There are many different bridal shower themes that are popular, one of which is the “Around the Clock” bridal shower. The bridal shower gifts and theme are all centered on a certain time of day. Each guest is asked to bring a gift that reflects a certain time during the day. For example: say cousin Jill gets 6:00 AM, she may choose to bring something related to coffee as anyone who gets up that early definitely needs it! The bridal shower theme revolves around numbers and daily tasks. Gifts can be things for the house, kitchen supplies or gifts for the new married couple. There are plenty of fun bridal shower games that you can play to include numbers or household items, such as bridal shower bingo. Associate each space with something that pertains to a certain time, the questions will be “This drink is found on the table with a plate of waffles or cereal”. Instead of covering numbers each square has an answer to a question, in this case “orange juice”!

For “five o’clock” give the bride and groom a personalized jar glass set to serve drinks for cocktail hour! They can choose to enjoy a cool glass of lemonade on a hot summer day or serve guest drinks at a small cocktail party. These bridal shower gifts are really fun for any new couple. Be sure to include a time of day for each guest on the invitation along with a popular example in case they need inspiration.

Creative Baby Shower Gift Ideas!

Baby showers are a great opportunity for friends and loved ones to impart any useful information and wisdom to the new parents in a fun and formal setting. Traditionally baby shower gifts would be homemade presents or gifts that have significant meaning to the giver. Nowadays there are many different types of baby shower gifts that can be gifted to the parents. Popular baby shower gifts include diapers, baby clothes and blanket sets. If you’re looking for ideas for baby shower gifts we have plenty of suggestions for popular gifts for baby showers and birthday parties.

Top Celebrity Weddings of 2011

As 2011 comes to a close and we reflect on all things wedding – from colors and themes, to gowns and trends – let’s look back on the top celebrity weddings of 2011.
