What fun! The pink theme was certainly carried out with fun touches such as the pink hair, butterflies, spoons, drink, flowers, strawberries. Loved it!

What fun you seem to have had. Pink is beautiful, fun and elegant. I love the photos. I will be taking part in 'Race For Life' and I will be wearing a pink Tutu! probably not so elegant but hopefully as much fun as your evening.

Pink is my favorite color. Looks like you all had a blast. Looking forward to hearing about your party.
Posted by: Sheala | 27 March 2009 at 01:22 PM
Exquisite photos! Did I ever enjoy looking at these! Oh my gosh... what are you going to do for your dinner? I believe this one set a high precedent.
Posted by: Eileen @ Passions to Pastry | 27 March 2009 at 01:25 PM
The only thing better than the luscious pinks was the obvious sharing of a wonderful evening with a fun group of friends! Thanks for giving us a peek at your pink party!
Posted by: Laura Ellen | 27 March 2009 at 01:25 PM
FH with the pink wig is hilarious! The party must have been lots of fun, judging by your pics. How about yours, have you decided yet? My 50 cents? The "bikers" theme should do (as a biker myself I'd like that).
Posted by: Gracie | 27 March 2009 at 01:28 PM
That was a perfect insight to a rather fun filled evening, I would say! Love the pink theme. I can hardly wait to hear what you are planning for your event....
Posted by: marlis | 27 March 2009 at 01:40 PM
An almost perfect rosy evening! What a group you must be. Was there pinky music in background by Pink? Since you did not revea the scores, I assume the prize is just the fun of it all!

You just can't help but be happy when looking upon or experiencing pink. I love all the pink hair.
Happy weekend, Corey!

Looks like a lot of fun! I was just in Ojai a couple of weekends ago, and had a 'pink moment' cocktail at sunset - most delicious :) Can't wait to see pics of your dinner party!
Posted by: Sue McG | 27 March 2009 at 03:56 PM
Love all of the pink goodness Corey!
What great fun!
Ooh la la!
Have a great weekend,

Love that pink wig. Everyone looked fabulous in it, sort of like Zandra Rhodes the famous British designer.
Posted by: Annie | 27 March 2009 at 04:13 PM
What a gorgeous dinner party. I have a sudden urge to go out and throw myself into pinkness. I can't wait to see the photos when it's your turn.

Corey, methinks you are having wayyyy too much fun over there in France!!! But you deserve it!!! LOVE these photos! =)
Posted by: beachy | 27 March 2009 at 04:36 PM
What fun, I'm so glad we all got to go with you!
Posted by: Kel | 27 March 2009 at 04:42 PM
Ohhh La Laaaa! And so Melanie!
This tops anything on the show, I took a peek, and found the dinners bland compared to 'The Pink Party'! What a wonderful idea!!! Me thinks we need to bring this stateside! No???
kiss kiss

Woowzer! Looks like so much fun! Love the pink.
Are you doing green? or yellow? Pineapple party....

That looked fun, and I'm not even particularly fond of pink!
Posted by: Rebecca | 27 March 2009 at 08:10 PM
Great photos, Corey! It looks like everyone had a blast. What fun!!
Posted by: Eunice | 27 March 2009 at 08:21 PM
Is the guy with the butterfly pin Melanie's husband? French men are so handsom! I think it has something to do with the way they dress.
I always wanted to have a wicked witch party where everyone dresses in black and witch hats. Can't wait to see what you decide.
Much love, Charles
Posted by: Charles | 27 March 2009 at 08:42 PM
oooooo.. some of my favorite things are pink!
Picking over the pictures I perceived I'd participated in the Party!
It is so wonderful to see you guys having so much fun. I tell my daughters-in-law that it is the most important thing in a marriage... but they don't get it. My husband is the most fun date I have ever had, always!! It seems to be something else we have in common, Corey!
Posted by: Bilie | 27 March 2009 at 08:50 PM
oh my
pinkpinkpink!
:-)
it all makes me feel so happy.
it does!
Posted by: somepinkflowers | 27 March 2009 at 08:51 PM
i'm liking FH's longer hair!
(I told my husband I was doing our room in pink. He just raised an eyebrow at me. He didn't say 'no', so I'll take it as a yes....LOL)
Posted by: Amy | 27 March 2009 at 09:21 PM
Hi Corey! wow! I love your blog so so so much! congrats for your art!
see you!

Is this a pink dinner party? I love it! Ah, the pink champagne looks so good. But I think the wig puts it over the top. There is nothing like a pink wig to get a party started.
Posted by: Stephanie H. | 27 March 2009 at 11:00 PM
Corey, that looks like such a good time! I wish I could find friends that fun to be with!
Posted by: Emily | 27 March 2009 at 11:14 PM
Fantastic photos, Corey! My God, you are getting to be a formidable talent with that camera and eye of yours! Delicious each one.
Looks like it was a sensational party!
Posted by: Shelley Noble | 27 March 2009 at 11:43 PM
That wig is awesome! Loved the pink spoons,too!
Posted by: Ellen | 28 March 2009 at 12:34 AM
Looks so fun - I like the casual feeling. All of our dinner parties have been more formal and a ton of work. It's all about friends getting together and having fun. I think we will have a pink dinner next Valentine's Day. I have a lot of nice pink depression glass and accessories.Thanks for sharing.
BTW we had a mediterranean theme once and it was awesome but expensive. Dishes from Spain, Greece, Italy.
Posted by: Ann | 28 March 2009 at 01:09 AM
FUN!!!
and pink bubbly too xo
Posted by: Gillian | 28 March 2009 at 02:42 AM
It looks like you all had so much fun. I love those glasses and the pineapple. I'm assuming she got the color by putting it in food coloring?

Pink, Pink, Pink ....P I N K everywhere! What a sparkling party, it simply looks devine. What a wonderful idea for a party ...everything PINK! From pink hair to pink spoons! Loved it and look like everyone in attendance did too!
Posted by: Alice | 28 March 2009 at 03:46 PM
Corey: I'll trade you a silver spoon for that pink ring. ;)
Have you decided what your theme will be? Or will you surprise us?
Posted by: Alina | 28 March 2009 at 07:05 PM
I just adore your French life.

The best pink party i've ever "virtually" been to...
beautiful photography!
Posted by: Dixie | 30 March 2009 at 05:57 PM
I think that my fiance would not attend a pink party, but my daughter and I would most certainly love such a thing! Gotta LOVE PINK! And I just love the pink wig. A vital necessity to a Pink Party!
