Halloween Rehearsal Dinner Ideas


Check out this gorgeous Halloween rehearsal dinner designed by the talented Soiree out of Charleston, South Carolina. I particularly love this because the bride went all out; you just can't do a Halloween party half way!
When meeting with brides, a lot of them steer away from wedding dates that are close to popular holidays. I suggest to do the exact opposite. While it takes a special bride to get married on Halloween, it also is the perfect excuse to go all out on a costume party, bring out the sequins for a New Year's Eve reception, or showcase a fabulous fireworks display on 4th of July. Traditions can still be kept for a holiday wedding, but take advantage of having your friends and family together and throw that killer party you have always wanted.

Fall Leaf Tortilla Chips compliments of Eddie Ross




Halloween is right around the corner and I'm feeling the pressure of coming up with a great costume, appetizer, and cocktail concoction before the big day. I was peruseing Eddie Ross's fabulous blog when these gorgeous hors d'oeuvres caught my attention.

Halloween Treats




Being Halloween week will bring lots of tricks and treat this week at Fifi Cheek. Being a total scaredy cat, I will leave the tricks up to someone else!
Laudree is a beautiful shop in Paris that sells coveted macaroons and other yummy treats. They are a bit expensive to ship over to the States but I found a good substitution that has equally beautiful packaging. (That is the real reason that Laudree is so loved, right?) Bottega Louie just popped open in Los Angeles other than their famous macaroons, they also have mouth watering pastries, pizzas, and pies. They ship overnight, so these treats could be perfect as stocking stuffers!Add Image
