Good morning all my party people! I decided to continue with one of the luncheons I had a few years ago, it's a little more on the simple side. Wild, but simple. It all started with the invitation...
Jungle Invitation
Jungle Invitation
The little monkey swings from tree to tree, so I decided to go with a jungle theme.
When most people would see this invitation, they would think it would be a perfect invite for a two year old....NOT me!
I found some outdoor hibiscus and leaf dishes at Frontgate and then added to the collection with some dishes I found at Target.

I found some outdoor hibiscus and leaf dishes at Frontgate and then added to the collection with some dishes I found at Target.
I used rafia chargers under each plate and fish netting down the center of the table.
I used my three square vases from Pottery Barn to serve celery, carrots and dip.
The leaf was for the salad and the hibiscus was for the veggies.
I tried not to get upset if they used the wrong plate for the wrong food item! :)
A long plastic leaf tray was used to hold palm tree topped fruit kebobs.
I served iced Aveda Tea - have you ever tried it iced? It's great!
I don't know how it happened, but that year I found some parasol picks at Pier I and they matched my decor perfectly!
I filled coconut bowls with crackers and mixed nuts.
And off to the right is a ...(What??? a spoon out of place????) oh, I mean a hibiscus cookie to match the plate.
Besides the cookies, each guest was given a box of Tea Forte, which had a little leaf coming out of the top.
Here's a close up of the cute little tea boxes.
And a close up of the parasols with the plates.
Can you feel the Island Breeze?
