East Coast Football Fun

For the first Eagles game of each season we like to have everyone over for some east coast treats.  This year we not only got crabs from the Chesapeake - we purchased hoagies, tastykakes, and wise potato chips (from our local John's Philly Grille and Riteaid).  The dessert table included some Philadelphia Eagles swoopy and football cookie pops and some other treats like whipped cream vodka jello shots, chocolate cupcakes, store bought sugar cookies decorated with sugar sheets from Michaels, pudding shooters, and fruit.  All paper products and fan / pom pom backdrops were homemade and the flowers were from Trader Joe's.  We added a little mustaches just because and tied it in with a little favor lanyard that said - I mustache you a question - Are you ready for some football!?!

Here are pictures from the party setup.  I was very lucky to also attend this party and had an amazing time!  The bride-to-be, Victoria's friends and family are so nice and sweet and even though Victoria was the only one there I knew, I still felt so welcomed and had so much fun!
