A Very Potter Bachelorette Details

This past weekend I hosted a bachelorette weekend for my friend Elissa and wanted to make sure it was as special as can be. What made it so fun to plan was the theme: Potter! We were going to Wizarding World in Orlando for the weekend, so I wanted to make sure there was a magical theme going through all the details. I started with little gift bags for the girls:

I got some sweet little goodie bags from Hey Yo Yo and filled them with temporary dark mark tattoos, Potter themed buttons and pencils, along with golden snitch bracelets. What I loved the most was that I found all of them on Etsy!

A Very Magical Bachelorette

I come bearing both good and bad news. Bad news? No Lovable Friday today. Good news? I am en route to Orlando, Florida where I will be celebrating a wonderful girl’s bachelorette! I am completely honored to be my friend, Elissa’s, maid of honor and have had such a good time planning what may just be the best bachelorette party idea in the world. Well, at least to those of us that believe in magic. It will be at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter where we will be sure to spike our Butterbeers and run amok alongside fellow witches all while pledging allegiance to the boy who lived.

I’ll be back next week with party details, as well as a related giveaway!
Have a great weekend, muggles!

Harry Potter Invitations

I have a sincere love of party planning. Nothing gets me happier than planning a really fun and amazing event. Of course, nothing gets me more stressed. Just call it a love/hate. I have quite a few amazing events coming up in the next few months, and I figured I would share them with you all. Hope you all enjoy!

Although my killer Hunger Games party is quickly approaching (next week – eek), I am also planning a Harry Potter themed weekend  bachelorette party. The bride, her bridal party and friends will be heading up north to spend a weekend in Orlando, FL, specifically at The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. I am not going to lie, this is one of the coolest ideas for a bachelorette ever. I kind of think I need a do-over! 😉

But all kidding aside, I totally believe that party invitations really set the tone for any event, so naturally the invitations for the bachelorette had to be epic. After all, we are going to have the most amazing time. Thanks to some inspiration, I decided to put together a whole acceptance package into Hogwarts. I grabbed a bulk order of Kraft mailing tubes, and looked up the exact wording of Harry’s acceptance letter (find it here). I typed up individual letters for each lovely lady wizard, making it more authentic with aged paper, an official letterhead and a legit McGonagall signature.
