Valentine Table Scapes

Love One Another was our ward/neighborhood Valentine dinner party.  The person in charge asked if I would organize the decorations for the party.  Of course I said yes...my family says I don't know how to say no.  And mostly they're right.  But this is the fun stuff!  


Because my life is very full right now (and whose isn't), I came up with the idea to share the fun with the many talented ladies in our area.  

We had 12 dinner tables that needed to be decorated.  I asked 12 different ladies to be in charge of 1 dinner table.  They could do fancy, they could do fun, they could keep it simple or go all out.  They all came through with beautiful table scapes and made if very enjoyable to be a part of their table activities.

I gave the following instruction:
You will need:
To be available to host table that night
White table cloth will be provided
Table centerpiece
Place setting for 8
(We will be attaching a balloon(s) to a part of your centerpiece at each of our 12 tables)

Optional:
Favors
Mixer game for table (get to know you/reason to chat)

Menu for the evening
Soup
Salad
Bread/rolls
Dessert 

It was fun to match the personality of the person to their table.  They were absolutely beautiful.  










Buffet Tables with fun Tassel Banners.  We wondered how we were going to decorate a long row of crockpots.  Kaylee was brilliant and came up with the tassels...something that is trending on Pinterest.





The Photo Booth was a huge hit!  We had a professional come in and take care of us but would be so easy to create a photo-op spot.


They brought fun props.



After dinner and photos we played a special version of Family Feud!  So much FUN!

 
A memento of the evening.  My Funny Valentine!
