A few weeks ago I styled and created this Bridal shower dessert table. The invitation had lavender and plum shades of purple, so I used those color throughout the table.
For the backdrop, I hot glued fabric on a foam board and added paper fan wheels in different shades of color. For the center paper fan I added a heart with the word "Love." I then surrounded the board with a purple lace.
I made everything for the dessert table. I made a mixture of chocolate and vanilla cupcakes with buttercream frosting. Some of the cupcakes were topped with purple fondant shaped hearts. I also but cupcake toppers on the cupcake on the tower. They said expressions such as: "I Do," and "Love," More treats on the table that I made were chocolate covered oreos, cakes pops, popcorn boxes & Hershey bars wrapped with a personalized wrapper.
I had an assortment of purple candies in the corner of the table in candy vessels. I used gumballs, dark Hershey kisses, and jelly beans. There were also cake pops in simple white and purple colors sticking out of a white planter vase.
I found this great "diamond ring" paper weight while shopping one day and knew I had to use it for the table. I put the ring in a glass dish surrounded by purple decorative pieces to make it stand up. The ring sat atop the cupcake tower.
I used the same lace that I had surrounded the backdrop with to create a pennant banner using pictures of the couple.
The favors given to guests were heart shaped wine stoppers. I wrapped each box in a printed paper to match the theme. I then wrapped a purple ribbon around the box and glued a "thank you" tag on it.
