Real Party: Neapolitan Birthday

May 3, 2011 by Carrie Sellman

Today’s Real Party is an intimate birthday party with vintage charm.  Created by Lisa of Moore Minutes for her mother’s birthday, this sweet little event includes feminine details and soft colors.  A small group of close friends gathered at a Victorian coffee house for girl talk, coffee and sweets.  How perfect does that sound?  From the doilies, lace and roses to the six layer cake, cookies and ice cream… you will fall in love with this vintage Neapolitan Birthday Party.

{A few thoughts from Lisa about this event:}

“For my Mom’s birthday, we celebrated with a small circle of some of her girlfriends over some sweets and coffee.  Every detail, color, and flavor focused around neapolitan.  Because, Neapolitan represents the times when you can’t just choose ONE good thing in life to savor, so you choose to enjoy all!  Chocolate?  Strawberry?  OR…. Vanilla?  Hmmm, all 3 yes please.”

{A few thoughts from Lisa about the setting:}

“I discovered the ideal venue to celebrate at a proper Victorian coffeehouse called CUPS…. Doilies, Lace, Roses, Pastels, everything dainty and girly for this breezy afternoon celebration on the back porch.”

{More from Lisa about this event:}

“My Mom and a sweet circle of friends… girl talk about pretty things, shopping, and just stuff.  Cake, cookies, and ice cream is served.  The afternoon was spent enjoying pretty moments with pretty hearts.  It’s a blessed life we each get to live.”

A very special thank you to Lisa of Moore Minutes for sharing this charming Neapolitan Birthday with us.  Not only does it make a lovely birthday celebration but would perfect for Mother’s Day.  You can read more about this event HERE on the Moore Minutes Blog.
