A few weeks ago we hosted a small soirée to celebrate our birthdays. I say our birthdays, because my husband and I have birthdays one day apart so we get to celebrate two for one.


By now you know that beyond photography, I like design and entertaining; these are just ways to further express my creativity. The design aesthetic for the evening was all inspired by the Indian Summer Night peacock theme I previously featured. Fortunately there are some great stylish alternatives to evite which helped to set the tone of the evening without requiring actual mailing. My personal favorite, cocodot.com, super stylish, with a lot of customization and recently dubbed the Bergdorf Goodman of invitations. The key to the evening was a decor that set the mood with the layering of light, color and authentic Indian cuisine. Fun!
Next party on my mind, my son’s birthday, but that wont be for a while. In the meanwhile, I hope this inspires your own summer entertaining.
