Come celebrate the holiday season with the Southern Weddings gals! We’re putting on our aprons and busting out the frosting for a good ole fashioned gingerbread building competition. The twist? This ain’t your regular gingerbread house — we’re building gingerbread barns, y’all! Bring your best friends, your partner in crime, or your sweetie to compete to build the best gingerbread barn below the Mason-Dixon Line! The winner even gets a special holiday prize: a $100 gift certificate from our sponsor, Minted! Perfect for holiday cards and save-the-dates, no?
We’re partnering up with our awesome event sponsors, The Carolina Inn, Sugarland Bakery and Hammond’s Candies, to spread the holiday joy (and some friendly competitive spirit). We’ll be building at The Carolina Inn’s Hill Ballroom on November 30 at 6:30. Stations will be full of gingerbread, Sugarland’s yummy icing, tons of peppermint from Hammond’s Candies and lots of other sweets! The fabulous Nancy Ray will be on hand to photograph all the festivities, too!
To keep the sugar highs at bay, light snacks and refreshments, courtesy of The Carolina Inn, will be provided. Get your creative caps on and start thinking up your plans, because the Southern Weddings girls will be building, too, and we’re going to be raring to go! As you can tell from the photo above, I’ve been practicing. Don’t be fooled by its modest appearance, guys: I’ve got foundation setting, frosting piping and M&M eating down to a science.
RSVP by sending an email to me at nicole {at} iloveswmag.com with the subject line: Attending with Bells On! See you there!
Sounds like fun!
