Queen Bee Birthday Bash
My Mother-In-Law always does so much for everyone. I saw this party idea on Silly Bee's Chickadee's blog. I have been waiting for a reason to re-create this great party with my own touches...
We celebrated her birthday with her girlfriends. I asked everyone to wear yellow (they thought it was her favorite color!), and I asked Kathy to wear either black, white or black and white...
The theme of the party was a surprise for everyone!
Sweet Table with "Bee" theme
Cupcakes were vanilla with cream cheese frosting.
I bought the edible sugared honey bees from amazon!
Honey Bears for for the guests to take home
Small jars with lemon drops for everyone!
Queen Bee Tiara (I actually found a light up flashing tiara for the Queen at Party City...She wore it all night!)
Her Throne
Bumble Bee Pinata
made from soccer ball pinata, covered with yellow yarn!
The inside was filled with Bit O'Honey candy...see later in the post
tissue paper flowers were everywhere! I went crazy with yellow tissue paper, I am addicted to them now!
Baby's Breath flowers with chenille bees, I found these on Amazon as well
Bee cookie jar, $4.00 on sale from Homegoods!
My favorite detail...
"Get Buzzed!"
Homemade Honey Lemonade was a hit, even better with Vodka!
This beer tastes great..."Honey Lager!"
These were our coursages
Birthday Girl!
After Dinner which was homemade Mac and Cheese (yellow!)
and salad with Honey, Balsamic, Dijon dressing...yummy
We had a trivia contest... after trivia questions that I found on line, I incorporated trivia questions about the birthday girl...a big hit!
presents included Burt's Bees Wax
and a Brighton Charm of a Bumble Bee
all of us in Yellow!
Queen Bee and Worker Bee
Pinata Time!
Take out all your aggressions on a Pinata!
Happy Birthday Kathy!

Cheryl, everything is so cute at this party!!
ReplyDeleteHello Cheryl!
ReplyDeleteI just love everything about this party! i call my sister my little queen bee.. This february is her 23th b-day and i would like to prepare a party with your ideas... i'd have to improvise (be creative? =p) because i don't have a party city or something nearby... Anyway, i'll handle it!
Just give me a tip for the trivia... how was it? which is the webpage?
congrats!! your blog is great!
Thank you for your kind words!
ReplyDeleteFor the trivia, I googled trivia questions and found some questions about make-up, and other "girly" things. I then threw in personal questions, such as "what is her favorite color? where she went to school? first pet? first boyfriend? favorite drink? favorite food...etc." The personal trivia questions were the most fun!!!!
Happy planning!
