Jello Shots!
I probably would have stumbled on them on my own with how much I’m on that website, but it was convenient anyways! That answers the next question I was going to have, which was, what do I make the shots in? Well, I can just make them in those plastic cups! And thanks to the lids if there’s any left over we can store them in the fridge for another time. I’m getting more and more excited about this party and more and more things are starting to fall into place for it - which is good, because it’s coming up soon!
Drinkware for Laura
The first thing I found was a flashing martini glass. What a good combination. It’s all the classiness of a martini glass, but still fun, because it’s flashing. I’m sure she’d feel very dignified drinking out of this. But I think she’d really find this one funny:
It may not be a martini glass, but this cup says “sexy” on it - which Laura certainly is! And I don’t mean to call her conceited, or anything, but she knows it, too - so I think this would be a perfect little joke for her! But, you know, I didn’t realize until just now that both of those options flash. That’s ok, I think she’ll like that. I’m having trouble deciding which one to get (aren’t I always), so I’m open to any of your suggestions if you’ve got any! I’m sure she’d love either of them - I just need to make a choice. Sometimes I think I’m making this entire process harder on myself than it needs to be!
Cake Pan
It’s called the sexy man cake pan. And it is exactly what I was looking for, I just didn’t know it until I found it. This will be absolutely perfect, Laura’s going to love this cake. It’s sexy and bachelorette party-themed and a bit naughty without being too inappropriate. I should probably run it by Beth since she’s in charge of food, but I think she’ll think it’s perfect, too. I was pretty worried about the cake for a while there, so I’m glad I figured this out and it’s going to work out so well!
Yet another option
You can find it here. This kit’s a bit more expensive than the other one (ok, quite a bit), but it comes with so much more. It comes with dinner AND dessert plates, and utensils, in addition to the cups and napkins. Plus, it’s not just table settings - it’s got invitations and name tags, and a banner, too! I know I already decided on some invitations, but I think I would probably save money if I got the ones included with this set. And name tags might be nice, because there are a couple of girls coming who aren’t very familiar with most of Laura’s friends. As for the banner, I could always use some more decorations - I feel like I don’t have nearly enough of those picked out yet! I know that the plates and napkins in here aren’t quite as colorful and exciting as the one in the kit I found last time, but they’re still far from dull. And I think they’ll fit better with the tablecloth and balloons I picked out, too. Still, I’m having trouble deciding, because I did really like those other ones... who knew planning a bachelorette party would be this stressful??
Which to get?
If you remember from quite a while ago, I thought I figured out my plates, cups, and napkins fairly early on. I posted about it here. But I was looking at that post again, and those do seem rather plain. I also just found this kit, where the designs are much more exciting:
See? Those are so colorful and animated, and without anything too inappropriate. No penises! I want to keep the party classy, but that doesn’t have to mean keeping it boring. Plus, because these come in a set, it’s a little cheaper than if I were to buy those other cups, plates, and napkins separately. I don’t think Laura would find anything wrong with these; I know I wouldn’t. Maybe I should check with her first, even though I don’t particularly want to tell her anything about the party before hand... I know, I’ll ask Patty what she thinks. Hopefully she’ll agree with me that we can make our decorations fun without making them inappropriate. Because I really am a fan of these plates and napkins!
