Finally bridal shower pictures! Woohoo!
All the stress was worth it, because Amanda had a great time at her shower (or so she told me, haha). She'll be married in 10 days...that's so crazy to think about. I meet her about 7 months before she even met Ron, her fiance. It has been so interesting and cute to see their entire relationship from the beginning.
These pictures from the bridal shower were taken by the lovely and talented Nikki Murphy, a fellow bridesmaid. She is a wonderful photographer, and if you're looking for someone to take pictures, think about asking her. She's super creative, very sweet, and EXTREMELY talented. :) Thanks Nikki for letting me use your photos!
Bridal shower theme: Breakfast at Tiffany's. It's a favorite of mine, so this was a BLAST to plan. Audrey is timeless.
The gift table, with a vase of beautiful flowers from our yard, and balloons.
The food...or some of it, anyway. I made sandwiches, there was fruit and choc dip, veggies and dip, chips and salsa, cheese cubes...
The BIG Surprise! A DIAMOND RING CAKE!! I had been thinking about doing this for a while, and the theme fit perfectly for it. Rebecca helped me make the cakes, then my dad helped trim and ice the cake. I was so proud!
Amanda and her maid of honor, aka ME! I love this picture of us :)
I bought a picture frame from Target, took out the matting, and everyone signed it. It's such a great keepsake idea! We took pictures of all of us, so she can order one and put it in the frame and remember it forever. <3
Yes, I did make everyone play the toilet paper wedding dress game. I think they all had a good time, haha. I think my dress is simply divine ;D
Amanda and her special glass that says "BRIDE TO BE" on it, hahaha. I try to be crafty, sometimes. She humored me and told me it was pretty. Oh, I also made sure to have pink lemonade (her fave drink), and it was such a hit! It was all gone by the end of the shower.
I actually like this picture of me. See, Nikki is wonderful!
After games (trivia and wedding dress game) Amanda opened her gifts. She got LOTS of picture frames, random things for her house, clothes, and this beautiful scrapbook.
I found blingin' diamond rings for everyone! Diamonds are a girl's best friend, after all. We're classy.
We're fabulous. Be jealous.
Miss Audrey herself :)
"Make a crazy face" picture...I look awesome.
We all look so cute. :)
Amanda and the lovely Nikki! Such pretty ladies.
We had a fantastic day of fun! So happy that she's getting married! <3
Brunch or a breakfast party can be a great start of the day. One more thing, all girlies look cute and pretty. Planning a baby shower for my sister at one of the amazing San Francisco wedding venues in a couple of weeks. Thought of blue theme as it will be a gender reveal party. Other arrangements are on full active mode and managed by my brother in law.
