#Pursuing30: DIY Champagne Bar

By definition, it's

not a celebration

without some champagne! With the help of

One Hope

and

Ralphs

, I created this fun DIY champagne bar the morning of our

pool party

shenanigans.

Every champagne bar needs 3 things:

1. champagne or sparkling wine: I love this

festive bottle

from One Hope, plus the brut is delicious and crisp

2. juice: orange juice is an obvious choice. I also went with peach, pomegranate, and mango juices. Grab a

few carafes

ahead of time to pour the juices in; they make for a prettier display and usually result in less mess. Tip:

fill out labels

before hand that you can tie on the night before, it helps day of prep!

3. fruit: I picked multi-purpose fruit that I knew wouldn't go to waste. For breakfast we had my

delicious enchiladas

and the healthier crowd ended up having yogurt with, you guessed it, fruit! Strawberries, blueberries, pomegranate seeds, and raspberries all make for great champagne AND yogurt toppings!

Of course, balloons always make for fun decor. The white balloons in the pics above are actually these

"yay" balloons

 -  I just didn't put the "yay" stickers and only added the heart ones.
