You see that smile? This is 30! I always said for my 30th I was going to throw a big party where I had bottles and sparklers, HAHA Oh little Patty, you had high hopes and dreams LOL. But for my 30th I wanted an intimate gathering with my closes family and friends and that is exactly what I did!

Fancy Picnics is a local Houston Company that has put a fancy twist on picnics! They bring the fun to you or wherever you want. Whether it’s for an anniversary dinner, birthday lunch, or you want to pop the question, Fancy Picnics has everything you need and THEY SET EVERYTHING UP FOR YOU!! You just show up and look like the hero!

My set up was made possible with the florals from Texas Forever Florals. Locally owned in Houston and can make all your events centerpieces and your bouquets possible! I had custom rose gold stirrers made from Laser Cut Co. They went perfect in the cocktails and I added them to the center pieces for that extra touch. Laser Cut Co can literally laser ANYTHING.

I collaborated with some of the best in Houston to host a Aloha themed Fancy Picnic! I had the pleasure to have InterContinental-Houston - Medical Center host my group in their Magnolia Room that has an amazing terrace overseeing the medical center in Houston. The hotel opened up in January and is a very upscale hotel that I highly suggest. They have an beautiful bar downstairs and the aesthetics of this hotel is unreal. I cannot wait to have a stay-cation there!

Safina Houston, located inside InterContinental Houston - Medical Center Hotel provided the cocktails and savory and sweet Hors d'oeuvres! Tasty mini empanadas, Shrimp Cocktail, Bacon wrapped bacon, and so much more. Everything so was delicious and they had the perfect set up for people to grab and go.

Desserts will always be my favorite! I had the most luxurious cake from Butter Baby Bakery, seriously, this cake was almost too pretty to eat but I am so glad we did because it was TASTY!! I had custom chocolate covered strawberries by Chocolate Dips by Lisa. I didn’t send her any pictures or anything, I just told her the theme and they went with everything perfectly. Oh my sweet macarons, seriously, a pineapple made of macarons is UNREAL! How tasty and how creative is my friend from Bomb Shell Macarons!!

You see all of these photos? I had the pleasure of working with Brave McRaven with BraveMcRavenPhotography. She is a local Houston Photographer who did an amazing job with all of my photos. With literally zero direction from me she captured every single moment!
