Bridal Shower recap and more Wedding crafts


As I mentioned in my last post, last weekend was my bridal shower. My matron of honor, Steph Ceperley, maid of honor, Emily Moffett and Emily's mother, Bonnie Moffett, hosted the event at Bonnie's home in Chico. The Moffett household has been the location of most of my Christmas Eve celebrations and holds a dear spot in my heart, so the location couldn't have been a better locale to celebrate this joyous time. The party started with cocktail hour out on the back porch.



It was quite festively decorated in garden theme. The ladies had rented linens to match my colors and had japanese laterns with cut out butterflies hanging above. The tables were decorated with beautiful fresh flower mixed bouquets and dragonflies.



At the base of the flower vases were mirrors and dragonfly-shaped confettie. I would learn later that Emily had hole-punched each and every one.
Bonnie out did herself like she does every occassion with the food. There were several types of tea sandwiches, chicken salad, a assorted cheese tray and a variety of breads. I had a lovely time catching up with friends and just taking a day to relax. While I remember to bring my camera (yes, we finally found the chargers) I was a little distracted. Luckily, Sara was kind enough to take some pictures for me. Hopefully I'll have some more from people who had their cameras and remembered to take them.

This is my old high school friend Melissa. It was so great to see her! Luckily, she blogs too so I can stay up-to-date on her life and watch her son Joshua grow up!

This is the dessert spread Bonnie laid out. The cake was from Upper Crust and Bonnie made the Mexican Wedding Cake cookies - so delicious!
