All of the guests, both young and old enjoyed the enchanting dessert table, which incorporated colored glass vintage plates serving an all white selection of desserts, jeweled paper cones filled with sweet popcorn & a charming gold tree hovered above with crystals dangling in the summer sunlight. A mystical forest created a backdrop to the dessert bar with acorns strung along the branches, while an owl hovered over the decor and a message dangling from speckled gold twine that read, “1 Upon A Time”.

1 Upon a time Part 2

Guests feasted on everything from custom candy bags of ‘Merlins Magical M & M’s’, cookies frosted with golden crowns, and fluffy white donut holes to a cake topped with handmade golden marzipan acorns and leaves.  Parents were each given hand soaps wrapped in a gold patterned print and served in a white ceramic swan to wash the messes off of their little ones after the day of delight!

    Wow! I am not sure how I happened upon your blog, but I am SO glad I did. This party looks so wonderful. I love the colors, the treats, everything!

    I had a candy bar at my wedding and I am just dying to do another sweets buffet! May be an excuse to have a party!
