If push comes to shove and you’re desperate for more blooms, fill in with enlarged photos<\/b> of flowers (especially handy when trying to reach a goal of fifty).<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n (We know that’s a lot of “if’s.” But that’s what we’re here for: the contingency plans.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And Then Decorate, Decorate and Decorate Some More<\/h2>\n\n\n\n This garden party idea calls for tasteful flowery decorations (in addition to all those bouquets, of course). Floral fabrics draping the tables, paper plates and napkins in a matching floral motif, or heck, get out the good floral patterned china if it’s a small party and you want to go all out. You can often find pretty china pieces in thrift stores, by the way. Mismatched china, all with floral motifs, would be a great look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another choice is to go with a color scheme. Perhaps one based on a flower’s name – rose and lilac come immediately to mind. This would save on visual overload.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Provide a small wheelbarrow to hold gifts and cards. And yes, wash it beforehand if it’s an actual working tool. Party favors can go in a pretty wicker basket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even the Guests Can Be Part of the Scenery (In a Good Way)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n To add to the flowery ambience, note on the invitations that there will be no admittance without wearing some form of flower. Be strong; pretend you’re finally the gatekeeper at some upscale nightclub and now you get to determine who gets in (go ahead, practice that hint of a sneer in the mirror). Now this isn’t really as hard on your guests as it may first appear. An entire dress patterned in flowers counts, but so does a small button in a floral shape. You get the idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let Them Eat … Flowery Looking Things<\/h2>\n\n\n\n You can really get creative in the food department. Shall we make a list?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fruit arrangements that look like flower bouquets (we’ve all seen these, right?)<\/li> Exotic hors d’oevres made with floral ingredients (rose water, edible flowers as ingredients or garnish)<\/li> Finger sandwiches cut in the shape of flowers with cookie cutters<\/li> Salads sprinkled with edible flower petals<\/li> A birthday cake decorated with flowers (could be real, buttercream or fondant)<\/li> Petits fours topped with delicate sugared violets<\/li> Homemade ice cream infused with rose water<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\nThe list could go on and on. Use your imagination and have fun!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the end of the party sending your female guests off with a single red rose is classy; give a sprig of lavender to calm the frazzled nerves of any male guest who was brave enough to attend this heavily floral affair.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

For a milestone birthday such as the 50th, the goal would be to have fifty different types of flora gracing the party location.
