Don’t you just love a Southern Luncheon? I know I do, being from GA and SC, and Aladdin was kind enough to host me to their version of a luncheon at the old Anthony’s restaurant in downtown Atlanta. It’s recently been converted into a million dollar entertaining facility, so it was the perfect backdrop to feature the new Aladdin Mason Entertaining Collection that’s too perfect for words! Just take a look at the heavy duty plastic multiple-gallon dispensers laden with punches, lemonades and berries…
They even had a little “photo booth” set up with a picturesque frame and plenty of props to take a… wait for it… MUG shot! Isn’t that sweet? And these bad boys are light, airy, and insulated. No sweaty drinks for me!
And take a look at this lovely set up. The sweet girls from MomTrends, PartyBluPrints and Aladdin did a fabulous job setting a tablescape worthy of Scarlett herself. Magnolia leaves were our place markers, beautiful beaded glass chargers were set along the edges and Aladdin Masons held armfuls of local garden flowers.
Even our menus were personalized with our dish selections. I immediately sent out some instagrams of these great little party favors; networking cards with creative fill in the blanks just for moms. I’m loving these place settings!
You can really see the insulation of the Aladdin Masons – the handles make them even more handy to tote around along with your diaper bag or toddler. Since they are plastic, you certainly can’t break them, and maybe all that positive energy they are channeling will rub off on your day!
A true Southern Dessert is a trifle, and Aladdin wasn’t to be outdone! Even though they are a northern company, don’t let them fool you – the DIY trifle in a Mason dessert was a hit with all the guests. I added raspberry compote, colored chocolate shavings, and plenty of freshly whipped cream to my short plastic mason jar.
Truly the best dessert photo I’ve ever taken, though this trifle was begging to be eaten. It was hard to stop and enjoy it for it’s color and not gobble it up… though I soon did.
Aladdin and PartyBluPrints had a wonderful DIY spice rub bar as a party favor. I added a bunch of brown sugar to my pre-made spice mix to use on a butt in my crockpot (seriously, it’s divine!) The super tight plastic mason lid means that my spices won’t leak out or go stale so I can pack them as gifts for others.
MomTrends, one of our generous hosts, recaps the event here, too (I even made it into one of the photos)! Follow the hashtag #AladdinMason to catch more of the fun, and head out to a store near you to grab few of the Mason Jars from the Aladdin Entertaining collection. What is the first thing you would do with an Aladdin Plastic Mason Jar?
Loved getting to spend time with you at this event! Enjoy the masons.
Those jars are perfect for parties and I feel like so many ideas are running through my brain right now. What a lovely event!
What a cute party. I love mason jars. I also love your photo props!
This looks like such a pretty event! (And congrats on making it into a photo!) 🙂
Mug shots! Ha- I love it! I also love the DIY party favor ideas- super cute.
LOVE love that new sink spout – very elegant and it really added a great touch to the kitchen! PS: You are funny. 😉
This looks like a super nice brunch! And so very southern. I’ve been enjoying my Aladdin mug pretty much everyday!
I love your new sink. We need a new one so bad!
Nice work! We did the same thing before we moved. Then I was sad to leave all our new upgrades. But the bigger house quickly made me forget haha!
Everything looks fantastic. I love the feel of a good southern luncheon.
I have seen and read about this event! What a great luncheon, I loved the Aladdin products I saw at Mom 2.0. Thanks for sharing your recap!

I really want some Aladdin products now. They look so cool and the event looked like so much fun! So beautiful!
What a beautiful event! I love all the products!
I love the Aladdin stuff. We just has a sleepover with almost 20 kids. The Aladdin mason cups were perfect. I didn’t have to worry about broken glasses.
There’s gotta be a joke in there somewhere. 😉 Good job on putting in the sink!
Oh there’s stuff is just amazing! What a beautiful time you had
Wow, that was quite an event. I love this Aladdin product and I have never heard of it. It just really makes you feel the whole summer experience.
Wow! Everything looks so beautiful. It sounds you had a very enjoyable day. I would love to see that building.
I think one of my other blogger buddies was at this event! I love the display, and I of course, love the Aladdin Mason jars! They were such a big hit at my party. I hope you got to take some home. 🙂
I love the idea of using mason jars for so many dining options. Love Aladdin’s products!
What a gorgeous setting. Very well put together luncheon and the products were awesome.
Nice work on putting in the sink! My apartment has a sucky single sink and I dream of having a double for dishes!
