Bridal Shower Saturday

We had a lovely day - I was one of the hostess' for my husband's niece (my niece also) bridal shower. I repurposed an old tray with chalkboard paint and used 2 old curtain hooks as easels. It turned out well and looked cute on the table. I arranged the little roses as well.

I can not tell you how wonderful the food on this table tasted. It was light and simple for a very hot day. This included the greatest punch of ginger ale and fruit juice with a frozen fruit ring.

The cake was delicious - it was decorated to look like the shower invitation. Great job Peggy! I made the fruit plate with cream cheese fruit dip. Becky and Kim made a beautiful vegetable dish and Debbie made the MOST incredible cucumber sandwiches I have ever eaten. I will get the recipe and share with you - I can not tell you how wonderful they were. Jeanie, whose home we had the shower served the most incredible chicken salad with craisins and almonds. Once again, when I get the recipe I will share with my readers.

Alycia received so many lovely gifts and it's always fun to watch her open her presents. Of course we pass each gift to each person to look at up close.

Alycia looked so beautiful - Brian is a very lucky man. It was so fun to share this day with her. She also shared with us her wedding veil that was redesigned from her mother's veil. (No pictures until the wedding)

Alycia gave each hostess the cutest zippered bags with a fleur-de-lis on the front with great little fun items inside. This was a lovely day, spent with lovely people, on a wonderful occasion. I can't wait for the wedding next weekend.
