The Kentucky Derby ~ Party Ideas

The Kentucky Derby is one of my favorite events to watch! I actually have been to a prestigious Keeneland Horse race, but the Derby is on my bucket list. If you are having a gathering to watch the race from your home, here are some fun ideas for your party. A tradition associated with the Kentucky Derby is the mint julep, so you must include juleps on your menu or go with Mint Julep cupcakes.

Another tradition is Hats Hats and more Hats ~ the bigger the better!
