The surprise 50th wedding anniversary party was a huge success! Everyone showed up, my parents were surprised & a good time was had by all.
Here are a few pics…

Loved the Greek key designed cake. The theme was gold (for 50 years) & since we are Greek, I thought why not do a simple two tiered white cake with gold Greek key! Turned out beautiful and was delish!

And a big thank you to my cousin Mallamo who cooked almost all the food! Not sure why but I didn’t get a pic of the spread…was too busy by that point I guess! I also don’t have a good enough pic of my parents to show…my iPhone doesn’t take good night shots! (you’d think I’d go ahead & get a real camera by now!)
Also, thanks to everyone who took the time to comment on my post about my drapery dilemma. I ended up hanging them in time for the party & they look great!! I think they warm up the room without blocking out my sunlight
Didn’t do the front window yet….still tryin to decide on that one

The house looks lovely. What a great memory to have with your family. Love the drapes!
Thank you Rachel…and yes, my parents will never forget it! (& neither will I)
It looks like you created a beautiful setting and spread for the party. The drapes look great!
Thank you Heather
Oh my goodness! It looked absolutely beautiful! Your parents must have been so pleased to have such a wonderful setting for their anniversary party (and so proud of their daughter). You did an outstanding job, Heidi.
Thanks Ahley, I enjoyed the decorating aspect of it
Everything looks so beautiful…..love the cake! Your drapes look gorgeous too!

Your new follower her. I love, love your house!!!! You have such good taste
The sconces on the dining room wall, where did you find those. They look great.
Thank you. The sconces are antique, they were purchased at a shop in Georgetown called Catherine Roberts
