Gearing up for the Twilight - New Moon Party

Preparations are in full swing.

We have been shopping away for decorations and party ware for our New Moon party....

I would say this party is going to be "Classy" - Definitely an ADULT version of your typical Teenage New Moon Party. My Girlfriend Karyn and I (co-hostesses) are going all out.

Here are a few things we have in the works. Feel free to snag some of these ideas for your own party and please leave me a comment if you have any more fabulous ideas that we might incorporate into our party.

DEFINITELY wear your heart on your sleeve. We all plan to wear our Twilight and New Moon T-Shirts, even going as far as to declare our Team status. (I am Team Edward - OF COURSE) Here is what the shirt I am wearing looks like - I got it at Torrid on clearance with an additional 50% off - it was like THREE BUCKS! Can't beat that. I also bought an awesome layered CROSS necklace in silver and black that is going to go GREAT with this.

And here is my necklace - HOT RIGHT? lol - Also from Torrid.


I also bought us some FUN Vampire Bite Tattoos to wear on our necks...lol - These little beauties were on eBay and I spent about four bucks. I bought these from eBay user carcar1047 - The items came promptly and were packaged SO CUTE. I will definitely be shopping with her again. She even threw in a little gift for me! What a sweetie! Another find on ebay is this super fun Scrabble Necklace that says "Twilight Mom". Can't wait to get this and see how cute it is. I got this from eBay user sns_creative_bowtique. She has a lot of really cute stuff.



And my last eBay purchase, I have to admit - is quite silly - even for me- But I saw it and HAD tohave it...lol - Check out this adorable Bella & Edward BELT BUCKLE....lol CUTE right? Anyone know where I can find a BELT with no buckle on it? I got this from eBay user kyrielkustomkollection94 and I can't wait to get it.


I think I am going to have my nails painted in a french manicure style but black with red tips. That should look good I think...lol - and RED LIPSTICK of course.

We will be decorating in a red & black "gothic" type theme with Twilight accents thrown in as well, apples, glitter, etc.

I have ordered some lovely black acrylic goblets from Target through Amazon.com. Aren't these cute? I look forward to using them for Halloween's to come as well.

We also plan to rim our Martini glasses with candy to look like blood. We found this fabulous idea the "Hostess with the Mostest" Blog. I LOVE her blog - so many fabulous party planning ideas.... You must check her out.


We plan to make the cocktail "Vampire's Kiss" in these adorable glasses - I can't wait to drink one of these - it sounds delisc. Here is the recipe...

VAMPIRE KISS

Ingredients:
1.5 oz. Finlandia Vodka, chilled
1.5 oz Korbel Champagne
.75 oz Chambord Black Raspberry Liqueur

Directions:
Pour vodka and half of the Chambord in a martini glass, top with Champagne and pour the remaining Chambord over the back of a spoon to make it float.

We plan to have food - beverages - cocktails - the WORKS!

Check out these apples we plan to make. Aren't they PERFECT? We fouund these over on MattBites.com Blog and just couldn't resist. I hope ours turn out this well. They are called Adam's Scary Apples.


Karyn has put together an amazing Trivia for us to play complete with PRIZES!!!
That is going to be FUN to try to wrack our brains to remember the books - it has been awhile since I read them.

We have black tablecloths, red lacey platemats, red, black, silver candles, blood red drink cups, black plasticware, and of course the New Moon party plates, etc.I plan to strew silver glitter around the tables because well - hello? - Edward Sparkles....lol. OHHHHHHH - I need some RHINESTONES - Adding that to my list now. We will also hang red ribbon around the room. Oh Karyn also bought one of those Room Scene Setters it is of creepy looking woods - PERFECT to have a photo op in front of.


I also have a few projects up my sleeve.... I have made everyone a New Moon bookmark, I will show a pic when they are done. Also Karyn found these awesome Vampire label printables that we are going to put on bottles of Hawaaiin Punch, as well as some water bottles that I ordered online. We will use the water bottles for our cocktails while we stand in the loooong line to watch the movie. You can find these adorable labels at the Hostess Blog as well.....see - I told you she has great stuff. Here are what her labels look like.


And here are the water bottles I orderd for us - Mine will be blank of course and I will label these myself. I may even personalize them with the guests names and some Twilight icons like Apples, chess pieces, etc.


She also has some printable movie quotes that would be FAB to hang around the house or dress up in frames to display about the tables. She has Twilight AND New Moon version. I will be using them ALL! The more the merrier I always say.

And lastly - I bought a variety of jars, a couple bottles of different wines in red and black and used some from my fridge at home that I plan to label with some of these awesome potion labels I found courtesy of Flickr user Love Manor. This is going to be SO FUN! I can fill them with fake blood, or candies, snacks. I haven't decided yet. Here is one of the labels I plan to use. Isn't it GREAT!


Here are a few "Before Shots" I took of some of the stuff I bought - I can't wait for the party and to show off some "After Shots". Mostly - I am looking forward to spending silly girl time with my Best Girls.



I am SURE that I am forgetting something - we are doing so many different things.

I am looking for a really reasonable candelabra or black candlesticks if anyone can point me in the right direction, and please be sure to share YOUR fabulous party ideas with me.

(everything you may want to explore further should be clickable with links to the sites we found these great ideas on.)

HAPPY PLANNING
Have a great day!
