FRIENDSGIVING | 2016

Another friendsgiving in the books and it was a good one! Friendsgiving is one of our favorite events to host and we always enjoy having everyone together for the day. I sent our invites out a few weeks ago and got more and more excited the closer it got. We decided to try out a Snap Chat filter this year and it worked out great! It was my first time designing one and getting it all setup and it wasn't bad at all. Get ready because this post will be picture heavy...

I decided to keep my tablescape very simple this year, and I used a lot of things I already had on hand!

One of the best things I ever discovered...premium disposable dinnerware! 
Disposable plates = less time in the kitchen and more time with our friends while they are over.
 Simple.Simple.Simple.
Gold chargers / dinner plates / appetizer plates / burgundy napkins

 I picked these foil round pans at dollar tree and let our guests use them as a leftover container. Right before I clean up in the kitchen and start putting away food I let everyone come in and fill their pans up, that way we aren't left with a ton of leftovers and our guests can enjoy another meal after Friendsgiving. I found burgundy washi tape at Wal-Mart and it matched our color perfectly!

Group picture!


I loved seeing everyone's snaps with our filter on it



The girls!



It was another great Friendsgiving and we are so grateful for all of these sweet friendships!

    Y'all sure know how to throw a great Friendsgiving! I love your leftovers idea - so much easier than being left with more food than you could possibly eat.

    Glad that your Thanksgiving went well. The set-up of the dinnerware is very pretty. I would have never guessed it was disposable if you hand't mentioned it.
