philadelphia’s annual italian market festival was this weekend and my husband and i (chey) hosted a block party for family + friends since we’re in the heart of the neighborhood. here are some italian delicacies, decor, and favors that would liven up a simple backyard picnic or elegant vineyard wedding reception…

{a} rest your wine glass on these graphic vespa coasters, by la papier studio; {b} homemade limoncello makes a delicious party favor, recipe via the food network; {c} we love this easy-to-make and very decadent ice cream cone cannoli recipe from cookies & cups{d} sip your italian soda incognito with these mario and luigi mustache straws, by whirligigs party co.; {e} this ciao bella cotton bag would make the perfect hotel guest bag for a destination wedding in italy, by invisible crown; {f} string this italian flag colored felt garland across the yard for a playful touch, by melisva.

ciao for now!
