It’s been very quiet over here on social media, but that’s because it’s been the opposite of quiet IRL around here! Between the new baby and opening a retail location soon, we’ve been busy!!! BUT… don’t worry, we found some time to order some amazing decorations and party supplies for Halloween! Check out our website to see them all (link in bio). And fall, Thanksgiving and Christmas are coming soon too!

There is nothing better than working remotely on this porch… unless you’re working remotely and suddenly spot a couple of visitors outside your window. 🦌 🦌 🦌

There are many benefits to being an event planner. One of them is that your friends know just how to order flowers from the best florists in town. Thank you sooooo much for the giant and stunning flowers Anticipation Events! Redberry Floral, you killed it! They’re so lovely and I’m so thrilled you made them. Thank you!

It’s been quiet around here lately, but for good reason! Eleanor Jane joined the party on July 15 and we couldn’t be more smitten. We’re back open for online orders if you need anything. In the meantime, we’ll just be staring at this sweet face and trying to get enough sleep… or coffee.

07/10/2021

BIG NEWS!!! No, the baby hasn’t arrived yet… BUT, we are beyond excited to announce that we’re going to brick & mortar!!! When I started a party store during a pandemic, it didn’t seem like the right time to open a retail location, but that was always the vision. And now, I’m beyond excited to announce that it’s happening! My dear friend and I are opening Haven 1890 this fall in Beverly and Skippagosh will be one of many vendors in the space. So, you can still order online or stop in to get everything you need for your party and more! We can’t wait to tell you more, but in the meantime, check out our website and follow us here and on Instagram () for updates!

It’s official! Haven 1890 is coming to Beverly in fall 2021! We’re so excited to bring fun vintage finds, home decor, gifts, party goods and so much more to our new shop soon. Please check out our website at www.haven1890.com and follow us here and on Instagram () for updates!

We’ve been struggling with what to say about because, quite frankly, nothing seems like enough. Posting photos of our cute 🌈 party supplies seemed self-serving. Posting a generic photo and saying “happy pride” seemed like it wasn’t enough.

Here’s the thing… it’s never enough but we’re going to post, support, donate, advocate, etc. until it is. Happy Pride Month. We’re here to celebrate now and always. And we’re here to keep working to protect the right to celebrate, marry and live proud. XOXO, Laura

06/26/2021

Cheers! We can’t wait to sip fun beverages and use our cute party supplies next week! Don’t forget to get your orders in ASAP!

Nine years ago, I planned the best wedding of all time. (Sorry clients, but I’m biased on this one.) We said “I do” at a little white church on the beach and celebrated with a reception on the bluff overlooking the lake. The details were perfect, but what I really learned was that the best day is about letting go of all the planning and just having fun because it all goes by so fast and nine years later, you’ll still wish you could do it all over again. Maybe next year? 😉

Now that the world has reopened, we’re expecting Fourth of July celebrations to be EPIC. So, we couldn’t resist ordering some seriously gorgeous party decorations for the occasion!

Quantities are limited, so if you’re interested, please order ASAP. And if you order by Friday, use the code EPIC to take 10% off! AND… don’t forget, delivery is always FREE in the Beverly area and shipping is just $5. Link in bio or DM to order!

Hello! We have a lot of new followers this week (yippee!) so thought it was a good time to reintroduce myself. I’m Laura, owner of . I’ve been planning events for many, many years and decided during the pandemic that it was finally time to start the party business I’ve been dreaming about for years.

Starting a party business during a pandemic may not seem like a good idea, but thanks to all of your virtual parties we started out strong and are thrilled we’re back to planning in-person gatherings again!

I started this business with one goal in mind: to make parties easy! Parties are fun, right? But the planning can be SO MUCH WORK. That’s where I come in. I’m here to bring you beautiful party supplies, curated party kits, and custom designed parties that give you a Pinterest-worthy party without the Pinterest-sized headache.

So thanks for following and hope you enjoy it here!
