I devoured this magazine last week. It's a good one!
On the afternoon of April 29th (after preschool) I will be hostesssing a playdate for my daughter and a few little friends. We will watch the nuptials while having fun! I will be wearing this tiara that I wore for my daughter's "3rd" birthday.
My daughter loves playing dress-up (guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree!), so she will be thrilled when I give her this little bridal gown for the playdate! All the little girls will be wearing a princess or bridal costume.
We'll be noshing on fruit, along with homemade cookies and I'll be making a "bride" wedding cake! I ordered these adorable carrriage treat boxes to put on the table to add to the festivities. I'm setting the table with the "crown" plates from my daughter's "3rd," along with using the turquoise checkered placemats (which were never used as placemats, but rather as a table runner!) from her "4th" party.
We'll be decorating crowns with crayons, markers and stick on jewels!
And, finally a Royal Wedding celebration playdate would not be a party unless the Royal Family was joining us...so I took care of that too! My gal pals and I will be sipping hot tea.
Does the Royal Wedding interests you? Will you be watching? Are you hosting or attending a party? Aren't you glad that there is Tivo and DVR to capture the wedding, so you can watch in the evening?

Its beautiful and they really are so in love...its such a magical event to watch! Enjoy and have fun in your party planning!

i seruously would of NEVER thought of this - NOW i want to host a royal wedding viewing party now! - how fabulous n creative!
Oh my...those tea bags are hysterical!
Great post! I love this idea! It looks like it will be so much fun. :) I will definitely watch the nuptuals and I also got into the spirit by creating a design board for their new living room in one of their houses! How fun! :)
I am enchanted by the Royal Wedding of the Century, too! Your party sounds fun. We should throw one the same day. Sad that April 29th is a work-day. Maybe in the evening with re-runs from TV?
The Royal Family teabags are a hoot! What a great idea. We have some souvenir china from Britian with Royal themes that we could use as well as lots of tea things for our party.
Thanks for your kind comments about our kitchen, by the way. You're a sophisticated audience for remodels so I'm relieved that you think that it is going ok.
My beautiful daughter (if I do say so myself!) is flying in from NYC to join me for the wedding. We decided a few months ago to treat ourselves and she was able to take the weekend off from work.
I am inviting my sisters and their daughters- it will be a family affair! I can't wait!
What a sweet idea, sounds like its going to be the cutest play date!
Those tea bags, too funny! Have fun! Janell
How very fun - you are so brilliant with the parties. We will be in London, though not invited to the Royal Wedding (darn! I wonder why?) so not sure whether to watch on Telly in the pub or try and get as close to Westminster as I can.
This is just too cute!!! How fun for Ella and her friends. And, those tea bags are such a riot.
And, yes, thank heavens for DVR so I can watch it once the boys go to school!

The royal family sitting around in tea cup hot tubs is the best! Isn't everything you do??!! XO, Kelly
Once again... will you please adopt me already?! hee hee Your daughter is one step away from living in a Disney movie... lucky little girl! I would like to watch because I think Kate is just flawless and she seems so sweet. xo
