With all the wedding planning going on and my wedding being less than 2 months away, it was time for my bridal shower. A nice break from all the stressful wedding planning. Plus, it was an amazing shower, thanks to the two best maid of honors ever! Abby and Anna did a great job and I was so excited for the shower, even surprised me with a gift that I’d been wanting for a while now. So, I thought I’d share all the great details of the shower with everyone!
All The Pretty Details
The shower was hosted at a local bank board room, which was a great space to use since they had a kitchen and it held everyone comfortably. They chose to go with my colors, pink and black with hints of cream.Pink table cloth with a beautiful floral centerpiece that featured my flowers accented the food table.
We also had a variety of delicious party food, like sausage pinwheels, chicken rollups, fruits, veggies, cheeseball, dip and spinach dip. To finish it off, we had strawberry and coconut cake. They were both extremely good!
I’m not much on bridal shower games, and neither were they, so we opted out on having games at the shower. Instead, they did advice cards, had guests sign a picture frame and sent out a recipe card with the invitation.
Guests brought back their recipe card filled out with their favorite recipes and they put them in a cute recipe book for me. Which was a great idea since I love to try new recipes and am always searching for some to try.
The advice cards were great to read after. Some people wrote, “Never go to bed mad at each other” while others said, “Keep your own bank account”. I loved seeing what people had to say. Another great detail that I loved was a bouquet holder for my bows. Perfect, since I plan on doing bow bouquets for our wedding rehearsal!
To say thank you for coming, they set up a little candy bar with all of mine and Bart’s favorite candy. Tootsie rolls, Mr. Goodbars, M&M’s and chocolate covered raisins were set out for guests to fill up a favor box to take home with them. Don’t worry, we have a ton of candy leftover! All the little details were great and I appreciate all the hard work they put into it!
Showering With Gifts
Of course, I got some great gifts as well! Me and Bart went and registered together at 3 out of 4 places together. However, he says he doesn’t remember registering for some of the stuff. I mean, I might have scanned a cupcake maker while he wasn’t looking, but he definitely knew about the rest!
We got everything from a toaster, blender, serving dishes, towels and even to a “Happy Everything” platter. Abby and Anna got me an item I have wanted for a while, a cricut! Which is great for me since I love doing crafts and will have time to put together a wedding scrapbook maybe! Everything was exactly what we wanted!
So, my wedding shower was a nice break from all the stress of wedding planning. It was a nice break to just relax and breathe, since the wedding is so close now! I truly appreciate everything that Abby and Anna did with this shower. They did a great job!!!
