Wow! That was a fun night! Cocktails, shopping, DJ, photo booth, pampering and more! Here’s a recap of this year’s major event and all the fun that was had!
Thank you to Austin Moms Blog’s official photographer, Laura Morsman Photography for capturing the evening! You always bring life to the events for all of the moms who missed out!

Swag bags!
Once party goers arrived they were sent straight to the swag bag table for a swag bag filled with goodies from Kendra Scott, Langford Market, ByGeorge, World Peas, Austin Urology Institute, Nanny Poppinz, Abercorn School, A+ Federal Credit Union, Dolce Blu, Organic Glow, Yeti Coolers, Nanny Poppinz, Deep Eddy Vodka, Posh Interiors, Half Pops, Happy Hemp, Blo Dry Bar, and more!
DJ!
Our Dj, Anthony, from Texas Professional DJs had music that even the shyest mama couldn’t resist groovin’ to! Austin Moms Blog contributors started the night off right doin’ the “wobble”!
Photo Booth!
A big thanks goes to Jenn Lamar from Photogenica Images for setting up an enormous, open air digitial photo booth filled with silly props, masks, and costumes. Each group got 4 shots in color or black and white and they were ready for viewing the next day! Be sure to book Photogenica for your next big event, birthday party, school dance, casino night, or spice up a backyard party!
Cocktails!
A party ain’t a party without cocktails and Mike from White Hat Rum had the cleanest cocktails put together for us with fresh mint! Chris from Deep Eddy Vodka and the stunning “Betty’s” were mixing up cocktails with all 4 flavors of vodka inside Kendra Scott and Scott, owner of Tequila 512 served me a margarita that made me a believer again! I could almost taste the local vibe in these spirits! Thanks again!
Food!
Iron Cactus catered the event with chips, salsa, dips, quesadillas, wraps. Nom, nom, nom! Iron Cactus is one of our favorite restaurants in Austin so we are thrilled that they are now catering too!!! Thank you Iron Cactus!

Giveaways!
The giveaways for this event were outrageous! In fact, I’d have to say, these were the best giveaways I’ve ever seen at ANY moms night out in Austin! Moms who purchased the VIP tickets or donated gifts to Buck’s Barn were awarded multiple tickets for the raffles and an Austin Moms Blog member, Alexis, walked away with HUGE prizes! Members receive extra tickets for events and Alexis showed us just how valuable that membership card can be.
