Throw a Passionately Pink Party for the Cause

This Passionately Pink Party is a beauty-themed girls get-together that raises awareness and money, if you like for a cause of your choosing.

Tabletop:

This party is all about feminine elegance. Place vases, full of your favorite pink flowers, around your home. No green thumb? No worries. Flora 2000 is a great florist that delivers nationwide. You can order beautiful pink tulips or roses, or any of their other lovely Flowers and Gifts.

Place gift bags for your guests on a decorated table near the entrance to your home, giving guests something to look forward to. We love the Pink Party tabletop at SocialCouture dot com.

Menu: Continue the theme, with pink cocktails.

Passionately Pink Martini:

4 parts vodka.

2 parts simple syrup.

4 strawberries.

Muddle strawberries in a cocktail shaker then add the other ingredients. Add ice and shake well. Strain into a Martini glass.

Pink Champagne Cocktail:

Fill the smallest part of a champagne flute with Chambord. Fill the remainder of the flute with sparkling wine. Another option is to use Rose Champagne. We like the Cristalino Brut Rose Cava. Finish the champagne cocktail by floating a sliced strawberry on top.

Beauty-themed Activities:

Hire a manicurist to give your friends manicures. Be sure to request a quick dry solution so that friends can fearlessly finish their cocktails and engage in the rest of the fun.

Host a trunk show. Ask a local boutique owner or independent designer to show some of their latest designs. Request that they donate a portion of any sales to your cause.

Beauty Barter:

Ask every guest to wrap and bring one of her favorite beauty items set a cost limit for the item, anywhere between 10-50 dollars usually works well.

Put numbers in a hat. Start with #1 and add one number for each person at the party. Each person selects a number. Place the gifts in the middle of the circle. Be sure that everyone can see the gifts.

The person that drew #1 out of the hat goes first. This person selects a present from the pile. The person then must quickly unwrap the gift and show it to everyone. Then, the person that drew #2 out of the hat chooses a present. Person #2 must unwrap the present and show it to everyone. Person #2 now has two choices. Person #2 can keep her present or person #2 can swap presents with person #1. Person #1 must swap presents willingly. Each present can only be swapped three times. This makes the game more exciting. The game continues like this until everyone has a present.

Balloon Bust:

Instructions:

Purchase a gift certificate to your favorite beauty boutique or clothing store. Purchase one helium balloon pink of course for every guest attending the party from a party supply store.

Fold enough small squares of paper so that you have one for each balloon. Mark one small square with the logo from the charity/cause your party is supporting e.g. a pink ribbon for breast cancer awareness. Ask the party supply store to put one small square of paper into each balloon during inflation.

During the party, give each person a chance to pick a balloon from the bouquet and pop it with a pin. The person who picks the balloon with the marked square wins the gift certificate.

Party Favors:

Thank your guests for supporting your cause with a gift bag filled with of your favorite beauty must-haves.

Purchase paper, handled gift bags in your favorite shade of pink and fill with the following:

• Pink flip flops – For use after a pampering pedicure most nail salons sale them for a couple of dollars per pair.

• Pink & White M&Ms – custom order at mymms dot com.

• Your favorite shade of pale or sheer pink nail polish – I recommend Essie "Fed Up".

• A copy of your favorite beauty or fashion magazine.

• Information about your cause and a list of things your friends can do to support it.
