Bubbles & Brunch……

Last weekend I threw a Bubbles & Brunch at our home in honor of my bestie Susan. Susan is getting remarried in a few weeks & we wanted to celebrate her.

The guest list was created, the Pinterest board began & my creative juices began to flow!!

I requested the help of my “niece” Maura for assistance with a ballon arch. I love them yet have never used one as decorations for a party. She recommended where to purchase the ballons & then she came over & created the arch for me. I was also able to purchase some great items through Amazon for signs & decorations!! The last touch for the party—the tablescape. I went to Produce Junction as soon as it opened the morning of the brunch & bought hydrangeas & a baby’s breath type flower & used vases I already had! I used the leaves from the hydrangeas to place inside of the glass vases to hide the stems of the flowers. I was even able to grab a bag of rose petals to sprinkle on the table for an added touch. Add some fun Luminara tea lights in pretty votives & voila!

Bubbles & Brunch

The menu planning began with finger foods—scones from David’s Cookies, tea sandwiches, fruit tray, crunchy veggies, mini quiches, charcuterie board and a Mimosa bar.

I found a new recipe on Pinterest for cucumber finger sandwiches that I just had to share with you. Everyone who enjoyed them raved about how delicious they were.

Combine all the ingredients using a mixer, I used my Kitchen Aid hand mixer. Then spread the amount you’d like on assorted bread shapes. I used a heart shaped cookie cutter & a biscuit cutter to create hearts & circles. I also removed the crust from the bread & sliced the bread into rectangles. I then spread the cream cheese mixture on to the bread, placed a few slices of English cucumber on the mixture, then garnished with some dill. Easy & delicious!

Everyone had a great time & enjoyed celebrating Susan!!
