Gold Goodness Going to Greece! A Fabulous And Elegant Christening Party!

All things gold and damask with "bling" and a great mustache theme! This great enthusiastic mom from Greece was ready to make a bold statement for her extravagant Christening party for her son! She went all out with all her custom My Lady Dye stationery details, which included wardrobe tags or coat tags, valet parking key rings, food tent cards, prints, and a signature drink menu sign. Her colors are brown, gold, silver, and an olive-grey. Her accents of "bling" are reflected in all the clear rhinestones that were used everywhere! Her large up-scale party, for close friends and family, will be thrown in a downtown location in an amazing multi-level building! Hence, the need for her 1 1/2" round scalloped key rings which are for the valet parking services. Seems like she might as well roll out the Red Carpet! They are a double-sided prints on gold metallic cover with individual numbers on one side and a damask print on the back-side. She will attach a metal key ring to each tag.

As guests arrive in style, they are welcomed to a coat hanging service where guests are given these fantastic wardrobe tags. Each guest to place their own tag into their pockets until they are ready to exit the party. The wardrobe tags are approximately 2" square with one clear rhinestone centered on mustache graphic and are accommodated with a chocolate brown satin ribbon tie. The tag is a single-sided print on gold metallic cover with each individual number, damask graphics, border, and mustache graphic on front side.

Then off to the next fabulous item, the tented food cards! These tent cards are sized 4" x 5 1/4" and printed on gold metallic cover. Damask graphics on both sides with front side layered with ivory metallic print with 4 large clear rhinestones (2 on each side). Her menu is soooooo fabulous that it literally made my mouth drool! Her dinner menu has great food items and desserts which included:

Not only did she go all out on her food menu but she topped it off with an outstanding signature drink menu! This was the cherry on top of the sundae for sure! A fun drink menu title of "HandleBAR Mustache" (which is actually the name of the type of mustache we used on all her items), fun cocktail categories (of "In Fashion", "Sexy", and "Special"), smaller mustache graphics sprinkled throughout, and rhinestone embellishments was the perfect solution for her elegant sign!

The signature drink menu sign is a tented sign sized 8 1/2" x 11" vertical, printed on gold metallic cover, and layered with a metallic ivory print. Tent feature is a thick black foam board material which makes for a durable, long lasting, and elegant item! The 6 extra large clear rhinestones topped it off in style and bling!



The custom prints she ordered are going to be used to gift wrap stacked Styrofoam pieces or blocks for the dessert pops and such. The damask graphics were printed on 8 1/2" x 11" gold metallic paper which she will cut and shape to fit her "boxes" for a matching themed dessert display.
