[MARY CHIA PART V ] OMY Singapore Blog Awards #SBA2012 - Hi-BeauTEA Party Inspirations

Hi dblchinis~

Ok when I was nominated for Best Beauty Blog awards 2012 and was told to organized a spa party for 25 guest with any theme in mind.
So is free play huh...ic...
OMG!!! What M I Suppose to do?!!!! *Tugs hair*

To be honest, planning process wasn't easy, we were given tight timeline to come up with concepts, ideas and to execute our thoughts.
At first I was having huge difficulty planning, my ideas were overwhelming. One moment I was thinking a kawaii theme another moment I was thinking of candy land, I even went to the extend of reviving another wedding party, which at that point in time I thought was totally irrelevant.

AHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Psychedelic visions overwhelmed my mind and everything was in a huge ball of mess, I wanted this and that and so much more but we have to adhere to the space, budget & time is seriously running short.

However, believe it or not, one day a sensible thought hit me. I suddenly have this idea of carrying out a hands on session. Like literal involvement of using the hands to do something all most girls love :

FLOWERS

I took in the idea of girls favoring flowers and giving them a chance to arrange these perishable Blossom altogether.
Yes, I think I just revived my wedding concept (Totally Relevant now!) in very different way. I had DIY-ed flowers arranged during my ROM Solemnization, I thought Y not spread the love?
This time round instead of having ready made flowers in place at the venue for my guest to come by and say 'hey nice setting.'
I should get them down to making their own set of plants which probably be going like 'Wow I'm gg to play with flowers? swee can~' *excitedly*

So I recee the location(Cocoon @ Marychia) & realized the area is pretty much enclosed & private that looks almost like a secret sanctuary.

And almost immediately I got a long distance call from my left side brain telling me to go with the flow, make the flowers worthwhile.
And So I came up with a Garden Theme.

Now the concept is set, I need designate timing for my party to begin.
I knew I had to play around with a thrifty budget, so Lunch and dinner wouldn't be possible as I had already allocated a part of the money for my flowers.
So I thought of afternoon tea. O yea y not make it high tea? Sounds classy yet still able to work around my budget with all the afternoon munchies: tarts, eclairs, cakes...etc.

And so I came up with

'Hi-BeauTEA'
A mix of Garden High Tea for the Beauties.

Now, you can't hold a garden party without pixies and fairies, without them the place is pretty much lifeless.
So I'm on the lookout to recruit for fairies

So I assembled all my trusty pixies, coz they'll be going through intensive gurellia training to guide my little fairies & give life to those flowers.
I figured they are not a very serious bunch, don't worry I'll train them well. 10 strokes of cane if anything goes wrong.


So here goes theFairy God-Mother's checklist
✓ Theme Hi-BeauTea Garden Party
✓ Location Cocoon @ Mary Chia
✓ Timing 2pm-4pm
✓ Food High Tea Snacks
✓ Guest Pixies & Fairies

hmmm seems like I'm missing out something very important...let me try dialing my right side brain this time round, she knows my activity best.
