Hip Hip Hooray!

On the weekend my hubby and I celebrated one of 'those' milestone birthdays.
As we both actually had our birthdays eariler in the thick of winter we thought we would delay the celebrations until we could 'guarantee' a warm balmy night.
Well let me just say if you want to break a drought,
let me organise a party for you. 
We got no less than 55mls of rain over 24 hours
and it all started at 8pm on Saturday night.

The Cupcake Wrapper HQ was transformed into a Martini Lounge for the evening, complete with cocktail slushee machines, and of course two very weather proof tarps to cover both outdoor decks.

It was a fantastic night and everyone had a ball!
The lolly table was a huge hit, the cupcakes looked fab and we did the same guest favor as we had at our wedding - we gave a CD to our friends of the music from the night - The Moule Manor Martini Mix!






After the deluge...

Thank you! I had just as much fun organising all the decs as I had on the actual night! Yes we hired the cocktail machine from Chill'd Drinks - really easy and yummy! Was the most popular drink of the night!
