ISSUE 17: PARISIAN CHRISTMAS MAGAZINE SHOOT

 

As we near closer to Christmas I am delighted to share this gorgeous and elegant Parisian Christmas magazine shoot by Alysia Bridger Events for Issue 17 of Celebrating Little One’s Magazine

 

A real feature of this whole setup was the illustration by Stacey Rose who creates this stunning Christmas in Paris custom illustration for the backdrop:

 

 

 

Just LOVE the detail in this illustration of the Eiffel tower and buildings behind the beautiful Mother/Daughter illustration:

 

 

It was all about the details in this shoot with these beautiful lollipops by Keeley’s Candy with “Merry Christmas in Paris” and the Eiffel Tower details:

 

 

 

Cookie Mix bottles by Sweet Health were themed to perfection to match this Parisian Christmas colour scheme for beautiful take home favours:

 

 

 

A gorgeous red bow from Door Bow Co added a Christmas touch and pop of colour to the backdrop:

 

 

I hope this shoot inspires you for a beautiful white/red colour scheme for a Christmas setup as it demonstrates just how elegant it can be!

 

 

 

Thank you to all the vendors involved for this shoot for our recent magazine!

Parisian Party feature

When I saw this jaw-dropping Parisian and Chanel inspired 5th birthday I knew I had to feature it! It was styled by one of my Queensland based Celebrate Society members – Enchanted Party Hire. 

I know you will be swooning at this photos!:

 

 

The STUNNING Parisian backdrop in pinks and blacks sets the scene for this amazing party setting:

 

I love how the desserts were all displayed in this gorgeous cart which suits the Parisian party theme:

 

The beautiful Chanel themed stationery detail is seen in everything from the favour boxes to the water bottles:

 

 

 

 

Look at the beautiful array of macarons,  cookies, cupcakes and cake pops!:

 

 

I just love this stunning view from the table!:

 

 

How gorgeous are the Chanel shaped placecard settings?:

 

 

 

This Paris inspired cake is just *incredible* – truly mind blowing! The detail is just gorgeous!

 

I would just swoon at this party all day! Truly a room transformed to another Paris inspired world for this 5th birthday party!:

 

Well done to all the vendors involved:

From precious pastels to bold pinks and monochrome accents, or why not add polka dots. It is prettiness and elegance all bundled into one!

Parisian Party Supplies

Come away to Paris with a selection of gorgeous Paris party supplies!

A parisian party can be styled in so many ways…..think poodles and eiffle towers and chandelliers….you could theme it as a pamper or fashion party…. a ballet party or a sweet parisian high tea! I have showcased mainly pink/black party supplies but you could also go with a red/blue/white colour scheme as well for something different!
