Moulin Rouge Anniversary Party- Follower Feature

This week I am featuring parties by my followers - I love seeing all the creative details that go into your parties. My next Follower Feature is this lovely Moulin Rouge Anniversary Party created by Vania at Canadian Hostess.

The details are in Vania's words...

My friend Pamella met her husband Sameh in Paris but got married in Egypt. When they returned to Canada she wanted to host an event for her family and friends. The event theme came so naturally - we brainstormed various french themes, but when we saw the venue we were inspired by the sophisticated and elegant interior and... the theme was born.

Moulin Rouge is a party theme that guarantees excitement, energy and glamour to any special event. Bursting with rich and dramatic colours and sensual ambiance, a Moulin Rouge theme was the perfect choice for this venue. Moriarty's Bistro is the "new kid" on the party block in Edmonton where French flair meets New York savvy in the décor.

The colour scheme for this event was black and white with a splash of red. I purchased a white Italian satin for the tablecloth from a local fabric store and glued the black lace to it. The black lace really gave it a dramatic feel. Red roses, ostrich feathers and lace transformed this venue into a cosmopolitan cabaret. Our dessert menu included: salted caramel macaroons, lavender shortbread cookies, oreo truffles, white chocolate and raspberry cheesecakes, dark chocolate cheesecakes and mini chocolate trifles. It was a fabulous event and I enjoyed planning every detail of it.
