My little one turned for this past December, We decided to have a simple little party to celebrate turning 4 and considering his birthday is on the 27th of December and New Year's Eve fell on a Saturday we decided to go with a Rockin' Eve party.{Inspired by Dick Clark's Rockin' Eve New Year's Countdown}

we set up an adult table for an early New Year's Celebration

The party was full of custom details we created favor tags, cupcake toppers water labels and a photo booth area so the children and adults could enjoy taking fun pictures

Sprinkles the Clown of Talking All that Jazz Entertainment entertain the children 1st their was a crowning ceremony of Cameron (he was the king for the day) She then dance, song and played with bubbles. After all the singing and dancing all the little ones received their face paint.

Flash Back Friday { 40/40 Birthday Party}

2011-08-19T12:00:00.010-04:00

Last year I worked with a close buddy of mine, she had wanted to surprise her husband with a 40th birthday celebration. After talking her into it , we decided to do it! The Theme was 40/40 taken inspiration from rap Mogul Jay-z 40/40 restaurant/ lounge and being in line with his famous lyrics from the song . 30 something song (30 the new 20 and so forth and so on) Invitations were inspired by the rap moguls Reasonable doubt album cover, so we created our own version using custom images from a photo session of the couple!

Custom Invitation Designed by Kustom Kreation Celebration Decor

Large images were used as decor on the mirrors to provide a custom feel to the party

diamond shaped cake with a cigar placed on top was custom made by Bliss Bakery

Aj's Catering provided a wonderful layout and delicious food for all the guest

DJ Six 5 had the floor crowded at all times

Custom photo booth was set up for picture taking of all the guest at the party.

Signage and props at the booth were a big hit!

Glass cylinder centerpieces were created and place on all the tables throughout

the venue with tea lights giving it a very grown and sexy appeal. Custom labeled items such as candy bar and pop corn was given to the guest for parting favors.

Guest of honor was so surprised that he wife had went totally out of the way for his 40th and was so thankful for all the work and dedication of all the vendors who participated in this event..

Looking forward to the up and coming party with this couple coming soon: October... time to get ready!

2011-06-17T09:34:00.002-04:00

Recently at my little one's daycare center we hosted all the children a party. The Party was entitled Everybody's Birthday Party. I decided to make it full of color and balloons. At the last minute I decided to order a entertainer for the party! Sprinkles the clown was great for our celebration!

using primary colors and helium balloons to make it festive and colorful!

Sprinkles the clown danced with the children played magic tricks

the children were so involved and having a great time!

Sprinkles also face painted all the children faces.....

Then they all received balloon art

after wards we served ice cream and cupcakes and each of the children took home a goodie bags with various trinkets in the bags

Sprinkles took pictures with all of the Birthday party folks and later we gave prints to each child!

It was such a fun day and to see the smiles on all the children faces was priceless! Looking forward to our next Everybody's Birthday Celebration!

The Cake Crate Company, LLC is a internet based bakery headquartered in Lithonia, Georgia, United States that specializes in an assortment of mini gourmet pound cakes. While our pound cakes are personal sized we guarantee you will not miss any of the full southern flavor.

The Cake Crate Company mini pound cake idea was originated in December of 2009. These small cakes were simply gifts for family and friends during the holiday season. As opposed to expensive gifts it was an opportunity to make the holidays a little more special by providing a personal touch through what we did best, baking. Three original flavors, sour cream, lemon, and strawberry, headlined the gift giving. By January 1, 2010 we decide to share this southern heritage with the world. Adding four more flavors, The Cake Crate Company experience had begun.

We adopted the, “It’s more than a cake. It’s an Experience.”, slogan as a pledge to customers that with every bite they get a taste of the old south, literally. Southern inspiration helped to create the logo and rustic packaging. And old family recipes provided the foundation for our original sour cream mini pound cake. These were the basic ingredients for The Cake Crate Company.

Commonly referred to as “The C.C.Co”, we made our first public appearance during the Gresham Park Softball Opening Day Ceremony on April 9^th 2010.

By June 2010, The Cake Crate Company opened its virtual doors with the launch of our internet storefront. With many more southern gourmet flavors being developed, The Cake Crate Company is continuing to represent its southern tradition wholeheartedly.

Change The Stage

Change The Stage has been in Interior Design for 12 years. Specializing in contemporary and ultra contemporary design. I also have a division that caters to men only because they need so much help in that arena and most designers are white and they are not in touch with what really works for us... unless like Kanye West you have an eye for design.

Eventista Productions

2011-02-22T10:24:00.000-05:00

We are abundant and powerful people but we chose to give into inferior ideas. Your purpose and destiny is not meant to acquire a little, it's meant to acquire ALOT... don't start a business- build an empire! "Become what you DREAM and not what you SEE"

Nye Bowen

These words are the motivation behind rising entrepreneur Nyasia Bowen. Indeed, when you see your vision for the event of your dreams come to fruition; it’s guaranteed to exceed your imagination. The New York City native founded Eventista Productions in 2008 and is a full service event planning and consulting firm with services ranging from elegant weddings, church anniversaries, and corporate functions to retreats. Prior to becoming an entrepreneur she developed her resume as Project Manager, Project Coordinator and Special Events Coordinator for prestigious entities like Cisco Systems, Equifax and the American Heart Association. She skillfully employs technology and social media to plan, promote and execute her business model leaving her time to be a model wife, mother and businesswoman.

Finding Eve Soul Cafe billed as “Entertainment 4 Your Soul” and with the motto “Live Life. Love God. No Compromise”, has embodied her truest passion- her desire to create a venue where Christians can have an intimate, spirit-filled experience and geared towards offering Christians a wholesome alternative to conventional nightlife entertainment. Finding Eve was originally a gathering for Christian singles that began with speed dating complimented by a talent showcase, Spoken Word, spectacular singers, Truth Music, great bands and musicians take stage and pour out their hearts in praise and worship. The talent recruited truly makes Finding Eve Soul Café a worship experience!

The event has taken a life of its own and added a breath of life to all who attend.

"I had a dream to combine fun with faith, and prove the two can coexist," said Mrs. Bowen, “For years there has been a void of quality, consistent faith-based entertainment options. After our inaugural event, seeing the outpouring of support from the community has validated our existence and our mission.” "Our philosophy is simple: one can be saved, Love God, and live a fun, fulfilled life without compromising one’s faith,” Bowen noted. “We really do provide entertainment for your soul!”

If past accomplishments and current success are any indication- the future is bright for Mrs. Bowen and she believes that with God all things are possible. Her current project entitled “The Planning DIVA” which is a Do It Yourself event-consulting firm, teaches aspiring event planners the art and business of Event Planning. In her words, “Event planning isn’t exclusively taught in the traditional sense of a classroom, it is taught through experience and the experience I have acquired over the years I want to share in an effort to help make someone’s job a bit easier”!

Michael 'Danger' Young

I'm known in L.A. as Mike Danger, the photographer. I first started photography in February 2009, right after i graduated from UCR. The short story behind that is I wanted to model and this agency wanted to sign me, but charge me $800 for a photoshoot. NATURALLY, I didn't have that money, but something clicked and made me want to buy a camera after that. So I did, and taught myself art of photography and photoshop.

I go by 'Danger' because I like pushing the limits of my photo shoots. I try to keep a pretty well balanced portfolio when it comes to Glamour or High Fashion, to Commercial or Headshots. Since I've started photography, I've always been so interested in developing my own 'look' so that people will KNOW that Mike Danger took that picture. I've met and worked with some awesome people along the way, and it seems like I meet more people every day.

Even though I'm relatively new to photography, I feel as though I know what I like in my pictures. My goal is to establish and maintain a name for my production company so I can work with well known and new faces whether it be in the fashion, music, or the entertainment industries. And MAYBE get back into modeling....

Real Life Images

2011-02-11T08:04:00.000-05:00

Real Life Images, LLC has been in operation in Atlanta, GA since 2004. We started providing our services to fill a need that was rapidly growing in the industry of quality photography. After seeing a wide variety of what was being offered, we noticed that people were settling for pictures instead of striving for images. With that in mind, we began to offer photographic services that did just that, which is the basis of our company motto: "Anyone can take your picture but only we can create your image." Focusing more on the realness of an image in whole, we began to create images that could easily pass for a work of art rather than just a photo. When you work with Real Life Images LLC, you are saying that you have selected quality over a name and for that you will be awarded with quality images at a reasonable price.

We specialize in all areas of photography including but not limited to: portraits, fashion, urban, wedding, children, and most events. We do have packages that come as a set but we at Real Life Images, LLC, are more than capable to alter the packages to fit your individual needs. Aside from a higher quality of images, we pride ourselves on our customer service and will do whatever is necessary to ensure that you are completely satisfied with selecting Real Life Images, LLC for all of your photographic needs. We currently service the South East area, including GA, FLA, and SC. But we are ever growing as is our name, reputation and the need for quality images.
