    Here are a few photos from my bridal shower tea at the The Olde Mill Inn in New Jersey (thanks to Laura for the pictures!). A lot of people came from really far away--New York City, Long Island, upstate New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Washington DC--and it was the most wonderful day!...

    My sister/MOH emailed me about setting up a shower for me over the next few months. From partyinvitationsblog.com Immediately, I started to feel panic over being the center of attention at a party. I’m not really into the whole open-presents-and-oh-and-ah thing either. I never really liked this idea at a birthday party, and at least then, you haven’t registered for gifts! I’ve recently been feeling like throwing out some wedding “musts” and I know we’ve discussed it here before, but now, I’m faced with the decision. Do I insist on not having one, or do I go along with it? I’m a...

    My bridal shower was this past Saturday and I don’t even know where to begin. It was everything I hoped it would be and more! Seriously, I knew that it would be a great time, but I just couldn’t have imagined it going any better than it did! This is a long, picture-heavy post but I have so much to share! We arrived at The Buckeye Tavern a little after 11:00am. The place has such awesome decor as it is, we didn’t have a whole lot of setting up to do. Here’s me with the two hostess(ess) with the mostess(ess), my sister and mom! Maid of Honor: Melissa, Mom and me! My dad had pri...

    Photography by Kryssi Patel There are some of the highlights from my bridal shower. It was gorgeous! Since there will not be any pink in our wedding, I requested a super girly, tea party-esque, pink bridal shower! Did my friends and family deliver or what?! My bridesmaid Kryssi Patel was the photographer. I was blown away by all the little details: * strawberry and lemon ice cubes for the homemade lemonade * candy pink painted vases with pearl designs * powder sugar stenciled hearts on the brownies * tiny pink picture frames with our engagement photos * shrubs pruned into hearts * homemade scr...

    I attended a lovely bridal shower this weekend...one of my *new* friends is getting hitched in a few short weeks....sooooo exciting!!I haven't attended ooodles of showers...a few...and my own of course.  I like showers - getting a little dressed up...picking out a gift for my friend...mingling with nice ladies...and watching the bride-to-be in all of her glowing excitement.  I had fun at this shower - it reminded me of how much fun I had at my shower last spring (and it made me miss my friends back home!)  My gift to the bride was a Megan Hamilton sketch of her jaw-dropping GLOR...
