Hen Nights by RosieDays!!

Recently I was asked by a good friend to help with the planning of a hen night for her good friend!! Well – I didn’t need to be asked twice!!

We all travelled to Waterford to the Marina Hotel where I booked a function room and the Powder Room Girls to come down to 16 of us Hens (me included!!!) En-route to Waterford I picked up gorgeous cupcakes from Niamh at Cupcake Queenie and we made our way down! So, we set up our “Afternoon Tea” in the function room – cupcakes, prosecco and chips and dips – where could you go wrong!! This was all a surprise for our Bride!! The music got going and we tucked in and started to be beautified!! The atmosphere was really great – especially for such a big group of girls! This was the 4th time that I had had my hair and make up done by the PRG team and yet again, I was not disappointed!!

Myself and another hen got our hair and make up done one of the first in the group and we sneaked out to decorate the Private Room I had reserved in LaPalma Restaurant on the Mall in Waterford. I assembled the FairyLight Backdrop behind the long table, then placed 2 large black martini glasses and filled them with white, pink and black ostrich feathers, white chair covers with black sashes for the hens and a black chair cover with a black sash for the Bride!! (the wedding theme was black and white!!). I have to thank Darius in LaPalma for being so helpful and accomodating!

We all gathered in the foyer of hotel for the next surprise – 2 limos to take us all to LaPalma! I used All Events Limos and they sent one stretch hummer and one strech silver limo! We set off from the Hotel and were taken for a drive around Waterford City – with 2 bottles of Cava provided per limo to help us on our “Merry” way!! Arriving at LaPalma we had a pre-dinner cocktail! I had arranged a set-menu with lots of choices and the food it was agreed by all was fab!! We left LaPalma a few hours later and headed off to dance the night away and there were a few sore heads the next morning but a great night was had by all!!

Lots of Lizzies in Tinakilly!

Lisianthus was the feature flower for Sandra’s wedding celebration in Tinakilly House on 16th July! She opted for purple lisianthus posies for her 5 bridesmaids and an elegant teardrop bouquet for herself.

The bridesmaids bouquets were made using a bridal holder and individual blooms of lisianthus positioned in each to create a full, vibrant and unusual posy! We also added a cute butterfly detail to each – butterflies being the theme of the day and featured on Sandra’s Table Name Cards and decoration.

Sandra’s own bouquet was an elegant teardrop creation using white Akito Roses, Crystal Blush miniature white calla lillies and white bouvardia, the foliage used was french soft ruscus and hard ruscus, to create a nice contrast of the dark green framing the white flowers. As is usual with my teardrop bouquets, it is hand-tied and finished with ivory satin surrounding the stems, and a sparkling Butterfly!

We were also asked to decorate the ballroom in Tinakilly. We provided our 90cm Silver Candelabra, with mirror bases and tealights for each table, and silver organza sashes for each chair (chair covers provided by the hotel, RosieDays do also provide Chair covers!)

We finished each candelabra centrepiece with tealights and lisianthus blooms. The weather was gorgeous and the surroundings at Tinakilly are fabulous with a seaview which really adds to the old-world charm of this country house Hotel
