My Party Guests

I'm so sad I forgot to pull out my camera through out the evening. I missed so many costumes (Green Hornet and lady Kato, Pocahontas, Alley Cat, Smurfette, Security Guard, Bumble Bees, Strawberry Shortcake, Ron Jeremy, and on and on)

Here's my Gnomeo

and me, his Juliette

A Pirate, Sailorette, and Ringmaster

Michael Jackson and a Bum

Barbarian

Let's just say Mr. Offensive

Thanks for coming to my party;o)

My Spooky Spread

My yummies




Mummy Dogs (Pillsbury bread stick dough wrapped sausages)

Veggie cups

Mummy mini Pizza's

Spider Pate
Pumpkin Patch (cheese balls w/ Pretzel stick stems in a bed of sprouts)

Meatballs

A cauldron of spinach dip and bones

Deviled eyeballs




My Haunted House (inside)

My entrance way had Crystal Head Vodka bottles filled with Orange Jello so we could insert a strobe light.
My Island with a weather I made and a spooky tree

I "cautioned" off all the private rooms

My chandelier bird's nest made outta sparkly bows

My broomsticks made outta Chop Sticks and Raffia



My Haunted Pumpkins







All carved by my wonderful husband Ken and his assistant Alyx.

My Haunted House (outside)

Well I had to take the pictures in the morning because they weren't really coming through at night (even though it's way spookier) We have a fog machine and strobe light along with the red LED lights.

My husband build a rickety old fence outta Cedar and we used patio stones to build pillars.


There's a huge stump with an axe

A chainsaw suspended from chains


A wheelbarrow full of body parts



And all our creepy beautiful trees

Dessert Table

The bride and Groom had requested a potluck dessert for their wedding and had all sorts of goodies brought for us to enjoy. I made these Rainbowy delicious fruit skewers.

Here's a picture of the pot luck goodies while we were setting them up......I don't know what happened, and why I never got a picture of it set up.

More fruit we did for the two chocolate fountains we set up (one dark, one milk)

Here's a picture of my still setting up the chocolate fountains. We had cream puffs, timbits, marshmallows, sponge cake, the wafer cookie thingy's and all the fruit.

The Wedding was at a local pub (hence the beer umbrella's and video game machines;o)

The Bathroom Baskets

We made bathroom baskets for the guests to use in case they had an "emergency".





The Candy Buffet

At the Wedding my Mother and I also did up a Candy Buffet for the bride.

Here's the pre day mix up taking over my kitchen table:

The flag banner I created with the help of The Digi Butterfly. It says Sweets from the Sweethearts. And here is everything all set up:

From the front:

Here's the side that guests started from. It had the little candy bags I made. The logo on them said their names and the date as a keep sake:o)

Making Memories;o)

I had a blast last night at a Wedding. I set up a photo Booth for the first time and had a bunch of props available for the guests to enjoy......and boy did they enjoy them;o)
