Bridesmaids Party! (Pre-Party Post!)

This weekend I'm hosting a Bridesmaids movie viewing party to celebrate the release of the movie on DVD*. (Have you seen it yet? Hilarious! Available September 20th!) As you may know,  theme parties are my favorite [proof, proof, proof] so I couldn't pass up the opportunity to go over the top on this out as well...Without revealing too much, I did want to share my inspiration board and some plans for the party (because naturally, I'm pretty pumped about it.)

Here's a sneak peek at the invites...

As guests are the most important component, I started with the inviations. Inspired by the wedding invitation format, it was also requested that guests wear the "proper" attire. Make no mistake, those who don't show up in bridesmaid/wedding apparel will be turned away. This is serious people. 

Of course, we'll need to document said attire so I'll create a photo backdrop with patterned wrapping paper. And if you have photo backdrop you must have props.  (People, and by people I mean me, never know what to do with their hands.) Hence, the mustaches and pink lips!

Obviously, there will bouquets, wedding cake, punch (spiked, of course) and plenty of munchies for the movie viewing madness.

I've got a bit more crafting, shopping and final preparations to take care of - can't wait for this to happen. Post party, I'll be sharing some pictures and details from the evening so stay tuned!
