Baby Shower Fit For A Queen

It was a magical afternoon for a wonderful couple.  A travel/UK themed baby shower for a Southern California couple who has relocated to London.

Bits of vintage, bits of new, and lots of love.
G3QDesigns{Party Stylings} at its finest...



The mama-to-be glowed in her red DVF Maternity dress and gold Chanel bangles as she gathered custom treats to share with her husband.


The centerpieces were kept simple.  A globe atop a stack of vintage books {Daddy-to-be is a tax-lawyer and author!}, with wild garden flowers and vintage Avon aftershave bottles in the shape of a plane {the plane is actually The Spirit of St. Louis - Mama-to-be is from St. Louis!}.




Guested raved over the custom created globe cake pops.  
{Created by Tickle Me Sweet}


Some of the cake pops were topped with flags and planes rounding the globe!  Perfect for this jet-settig couple!


The sweets table complete with vintage accessories! 




Custom bunting G3QDesigns. 


Although we did not play any typical baby shower games at this co-ed affair, a gift was given to the person who could guess the number of miles the couple has flown in the past year and a half.  The answer = approximately 340,000 miles!!!!!!!
The winner?  "Papa Nono"


Champagne anyone?







These incredible cupcakes just polished off the afternoon!  
Thank you G. Liv. Bakery!


An assortment of Paul A. Young truffles imported from London were given as gifts to the guests as they departed.


The couple was thrilled and I couldn't be happier!  
Sheila and Dominic, thank you so much for trusting us with your special party!





Rejoice in our confident hope. Be patient in trouble and keep praying.  When God's people are in need be ready to help them.  Always be eager to practice hospitality. 
Romans 12:9-13
