Signature Mardi Gras Madness Event



Mardi Gras Themed Event

Planning a fun, interactive Mardi Gras themed event is simple. With a little creativity and a lot of Mardi Gras themed decor, you can create a chic event. As with any themed event, your invitation, entertainment, food and favors should reflect the feeling and experience you are trying to evoke with your attendees. 

Mardi Gras Invitation
Mardi Gras Event Program

The invitation to your event should set the tone for how the event
will be and create excitement and anticipation for your expected
guests. Your invitation don't have to cost a lot. The above
 invitation was created and customized through Vistaprint.

 
















 
It's all in the details!  Each of the centerpiece at this event
were similar yet different in design. Dawn Spenser of  Patches
created these fabulous Mardi Gras centerpieces and each one
was distinctive in design and drop dead gorgeous.

 











 
 
 

 
A French Quarter Cafe vignette was created at the back of the
 room to help add to the authentic feel of Mardi Gras. A back drop
 was erected and balloon bouquets were placed on both sides.
Two cafe tables were placed in front to give the authentic feeling
of dining outside at a cafe in the French Quarters. The backdrop
was purchased from Shindigz at a fraction of the cost that one
 would normally have to pay for backdrops.





 
 Having the right kind of entertainment will keep your guests engaged
 and wondering what will come next. At this event, we had a
Stilt Walker and a Juggler to help keep smiles on the face
of the guests. We also had interactive games like
pin the mask, bean toss and spin for a prize among others.


 
To top it all off...we crowned our King and Queen of Mardi Gras
 for the event. It just wouldn't be a Mardi Gras event without
 a King and Queen!
