The dessert table was so amazing that most people ate their dessert before dinner.

I seriously think you need to be an event planner! Your parties look so fabulous!

OMG I swear, I went to college with the girl in the blue dress, Natalie I think is her name, I had a class with her when I went to Greensboro, or she looks very similar to the girl I am thinking of! Ha! I LOVE the buckets that hold your silverware, I want those! And also the lime and lemon bowls! Such a great event!
Your parties never disappoint!
Dying over this party!!! You are so unbelievably talented! So inspired now to try and pull something like this off…and how much do you just adore the Target $1 aisle?? Cannot wait to see what other soirees you have planned for the summer!
Down to every last detail this party looks amazing! Corn Hole Tourney + Hot Dog bar = amazing!
This is one of the cutest real, non-magazine parties I have ever seen! So fun! (Love the beer holders, too!)
I just can't even handle how amazing everything looks!!! Such cute and detailed ideas for each thing! Can't believe all the things you got from the $1 isle-fantastic! I so wish I could pull a party like this off!!

This is SO cute….where did you get the rug from?? We are looking for a new outdoor rug!
Cute cute cute!!!! Everything is so adorable!!! And the fruit pizza….AMAZING! I HAVE to make that!!!mamaplusmini.blogspot.com
Love all the details of this party – so cute! Question for you on the outdoor furniture and rug – do you have to move it/the cushions indoors when it rains? I'm looking at different pieces for our screened-in porch and deck, but wondered if I'd always be schlepping the stuff in and out…
SO so cute! Great job! I love the tape on the drinks to label the drinks. Genius and adorable.
Best party planner ever!
SO fun! I love all the details, friend! I know planning these type of get together's can be exhausting, so I hope you were able to enjoy the day, too!
I love the target dollar aisle! I can never leave the store without buying something!
FABulous party! It's obviously that you really have a knack for hosting great parties AND finding cute things at Target!
Everything is so happy and colorful! I love it all!
Fabulous! The hot dog bar is my fave.
Love all the decor! Glad everyone had a great time. What a fun way to start off the summer!
That party screams FUN! You did a great job on all the dรฉcor and food! Makes me excited for outdoor shindigs this Summer! Oh, and the rug is perfect! It really adds a lot to your lounge space:)
That party looks like so much fun. I love all the details and decor! xx
LOVE the little lemon and lime dishes. And that is why I adore Target!! Looks like another successful party!!! ;o)
Love it! Love it all. Cornhole…not so much but the beer stands are genius.www.hautemommyblog.com
Such an adorable party! I saw the lemon & lime bowls at Target recently but didn't realize they had 'lemon', 'lime', etc. on them until I saw your post so I ran by there yesterday and snagged some. If only Target would create an entire dollar spot store, in addition to Target of course.
This is so cute and looks like so much fun! Ever since I saw your new patio furniture I've been pining for it!! And those lemon & lime bowls are so moving into my house soon!
Looks so fun!! I would eat all of those things happily! So cute Christina!
oh my gosh. you did a great job! i love it! can you tell me more about the cookie pizza? such a cute idea!
Love the hot dog bar! And all the sunflowers. What a great party! I am definitely stealing the chip bag idea.
Everything looked fantastic! I've seen those crinkle bag for chips ideas on Pinterest and your version was simply smashing!I like that Charlie made sure to make it into one of the pics, haha!! :)Cheers,Samara
