You Need A Party ‘n Box

March 7, 2021

Party N Box

The idea of having a party during Covid times is pretty much non-existent. We’ve all had to find ways to get creative. Most of us have turned to zoom to face time our loved ones. We’ve had endless zoom happy hours and face time dates. We’ve even celebrated milestones through the screen. From birthdays to weddings, baby showers and more.

My friends and I are used to doing it big for our birthday celebrations. It’s the one day a year that we all look forward to getting together. However, this year was extremely challenging.

Leave it to my friend Audrey to pull off a birthday extravaganza from the comfort of our homes. She reached out to her good friend Shelli Stelmak who is a high end party planner. Last year, she put on Audrey’s birthday which was phenomenal, but this year I was truly blown away.

As a party planner, Shelli had to revamp her way of thinking since Covid forced all of us to cancel large gatherings. She created a new company called Party ‘n Box. It’s basically self explanatory – it’s a party in a box, LITERALLY!

I received this HUGE box delivered to my home, decorated beautifully. I couldn’t wait to open it. The moment I did, a bunch of balloons exploded out of it! Inside were more goodies and I didn’t even know where to start! For a moment, I felt like a celebrity receiving this extravagant gift – and it wasn’t even my birthday!

I pulled out the personalized box, which had my friends name on it. It mimicked a Gucci pattern which I loved! Inside was everything “Gucci”. There were champagne glasses and a bottle of bubbly with their logo. Also, a beautiful pair of earrings with the logo, as well as a logoed cell phone card holder. Can’t forget the Godiva chocolates and plates and forks to eat cake on. Yes, THIS personal sized cake was also in the huge box which had my friends initials on it in the Gucci pattern! By the way, you’ll also find candles included in the box! I suggest that you blow them out WITH your friend on zoom so all of their wishes come true!

We all jumped on zoom and partied together with these amazing goodies! Even though we weren’t physically in the same location this year, this was definitely a party to remember, especially during Covid!

I highly recommend that you check out Party ‘n Box for your next event. It’s a great way to celebrate something with your friends and family, even if you can’t all be in the same place. No one will feel like they were left out of the celebration!

Check this out!

Okay, this might be my new favorite kids meal…exce Okay, this might be my new favorite kids meal…except I’m an adult now, so of course there’s wine involved.

@serendipity3nyc stopped by @1035ktu to let us try their Ecstatic Meal that launches Tuesday, Sept. 8 with Wagyu sliders + truffle fries or Italian hot honey chicken + Cajun fries, plus your choice of a mini boxed wine or a Frrrozen Hot Chocolate and it comes with a mystery adults-only surprise inside. 

FYI-  it’s a secret menu item so if you want one, you have to ask for it 🤫

I’ve always said that when I finally made it to Greece, I HAD to do a flying dress photoshoot…and Santorini made it happen! 💙🤍

This was every bit as magical as I imagined and honestly, one of the most unforgettable experiences of my trip. From the dress to the views to that iconic Santorini backdrop…I was in my own little Greek fairytale.

I used @my_santorini_photo_agency and they captured about 140 photos! Narrowing it down to just 20 for this carousel was HARD… but I think I finally did it. 😂

If a flying dress photoshoot is on your Greece bucket list, DO IT. I promise - it’s so worth it, you won’t regret it.

Which photo is your favorite? 😏

🎭 You don’t just watch Masquerade… you WALK INTO i 🎭 You don’t just watch Masquerade… you WALK INTO it and I literally had no idea what I was about to encounter! 

@masqueradenyc is an immersive musical that takes you inside the world of The Phantom of the Opera. You move through different rooms and floors while the story happens around you, and sometimes you actually become part of it!

Masks are required, you can bring your own masquerade mask like I did or they will give you a lacy kind of mask like they gave my friend and no phones allowed til the end plus you have to check your bag. Think Sleep No More, but with a full musical and talking is allowed.

It’s perfect for a date night, girls’ night or birthday and they just extended their shows through January 31st. RUN for tickets!

So many of you have been asking how I booked my Gr So many of you have been asking how I booked my Greece trip… 🇬🇷✈️⛴️

I booked it through @great_value_vacations, and they made the whole experience SO easy! The flights, ferries, private transfers and hotels were all handled in one package. I just showed up and enjoyed the ride! 

FYI - This not a sponsored or a paid post, I’m just sharing a great find because I’d absolutely use them again! And if Greece is on your bucket list, definitely check them out.
