Mardi Gras Cupcake Toppers

These Print at Home Mardi Gras DIY cupcake toppers are here just in time for the big day this Tuesday and are available in my etsy shop. Simple print out on heavyweight white paper and then you can use either a 2" circle or 2" scallop punch. Attach to a lollipop stick and you're all set. You could also punch small holes in top and bottom and attach to straws or use as favor tags. The ideas are endless.

Masquerade Masks for the bride, groom and wedding guests

What a fun wedding photographed by Joe Latter Photographer. The bride and groom were looking to add some Halloween fun into their wedding day so they incorporated some Mardi Gras flair. They chose a purple and gold color theme and presented each guest with custom masquerade masks. LOVE THIS!!! The couple even wore white masks as they were introduced at the reception. You can see more of the beautiful wedding here.
