For the Love of Cocktails.

Nothing makes me happier than cozying up by a fire while sipping on a delicious warm cocktail in the middle of winter!  With a little whisky, bourbon, rum and spices, the concoctions are endless. So light a fire, get cozy, and drink up! Here are some yummy cocktails to warm you up on those cold winter nights!!! Cheers :)

Oh, Snap!

A picture is worth a thousand words. So, when it comes to bridal party photos, let me share a tip with all you soon-to-be brides and grooms: No one wants to look at 100 boring, smiling portraits in a book! You have to look at these pictures forever, so why not get creative? Think outside the box and come up with pic ideas that will make you laugh or smile for years to come! Here are some favorites I have come across =)

Walk it out.

Everyone who knows me knows I am a hippie in heels. But, don’t get me wrong – I just LOVE a good pair of boots! When I think of winter boots, three words come to mind: Cozy. Comfortable. Chic. Here are some trendy boots that will be sure to keep your little piggies warm this winter!

All About the Bout.

Here at Mean Party, we pride ourselves on planning weddings that surpass every couple's expectations. So trust us when we say, when planning your wedding – every little detail counts!

That means picking the perfect boutonniere for your soon-to-be hubby. The bout is a fun way to give your man a little flavor. A single rose and baby’s breath? Psshh – that’s old news!!! If you want to get super creative, ditch the flowers completely! Instead, use buttons, feathers, beads, herbs, or even wire. Here are a few of my favorites via Pinterest!  

Here’s to making it count!!

Nailing it.

Anyone that knows me, knows I have a thing for nail polish. It's beyond an obsession. And currently I am head over heels with anything dark and brooding and completely winter. Here are some of the colors I am dying to put on my nails right now!

Winter Blues

It is no secret to those who know me, I'm a summer girl. I like dresses and bare legs (when they're tan), blonde hair, and burnt cheeks!  But I will admit, I've grown a dear love for winter weddings!  Here are a few wedding shots that really strike my fancy (oh - and, this post gets me super pumped for our winter wonder wedding coming up in a couple weeks! eek!!)
