Humane Peacock Feather Engagement Party Ideas

Anne Wright
A humane peacock feather engagement party will help make your peacock wedding lucky. Peacock feathers can be cruelty free if they are collected during molting season, and these 5 ideas will keep everybody safe.

Dress up for your humane peacock feather engagement party: Ask your guests to wear peacock colors of bright blue, green, and gold. Scientists have proven that the birds get their vibrant looks from the structure of their feathers rather than from the pigment alone, but humans can get some of the effect with clothing and jewels.

Use NBC logos at your humane peacock feather engagement party: It would be great if your initials were NBC, but it's not worth changing your name. Everyone can still enjoy the NBC peacock mascot and its different looks over the years. If you are older and happy about it, you could get nostalgic by using the version from your birth years. Display it on monitors, or get a cheap old television set at a thrift shop and put a poster on the screen. It's probably too odd for a peacock wedding so get it out of your system early.

Pose under a Peacock Room umbrella: Make your party photos cruelty free by posing under this pretty umbrella in blue with gold peacocks based on the Peacock Room decorated by James McNeill Whistler now installed in the Freer Gallery in Washington DC. It's so good looking and practical you could probably use it for decorations and gifts at your peacock wedding too. ($35.95)

Serve peacock-labeled wine: Custom-labeled wine is a nice touch for any special occasion. Custom Wine Source will give you an estimate for any text and image you want to use, and you can buy the wine or just the labels from them. You could use a whimsical image for your engagement party, and a more formal design for your peacock wedding.

Support avian rescue efforts at your humane peacock feather engagement party: Good fortune is caused by virtue not superstition so get your peacock wedding off to an auspicious start by collecting a donation for avian rescue organizations. Guests can deposit their coins in any peacock patterned planter, and they are easy to find on Amazon or eBay. If you don't already know a local group, the Avian Welfare Organization can help you find something suitable.

Celebrate with a cruelty free peacock feather engagement party and enjoy your peacock wedding.
