In March, I was able to help host a Bridal Shower for my cousin Dan and his fiancee Lauren. I LOVE hosting showers for family! They are so laid back and honestly, 90% of the guests become partial hostesses before, during and after the shower. My aunts and cousins pitched in with making the food, helping with the decor and helping serve during the shower. Really, I just had to make sure everything was in my house on that day and family helped make it happen! My cousin Em, her kids and my aunt Jo even came the week before hand to help get everything ready. Of course, we took some time to take the kids to the Children's Museum. It was a lot of fun!
cupcakes! em made the chocolate seashells that went on top...it was a beach theme
the mimosa bar was a huge hit. we had three different kinds of sorbet, 4 different kinds of juice and 3 different kinds of berries. everyone loved making up different tasty combos!
the favors. em made coconut salt scrub that left your hands wonderfully soft!
dan and lauren really like playing all sorts of games, so we had our guests write notes of advice and well wishes on pieces to a jenga game
the food was a huge hit with the little kids and the big kids ; )
we had four different types of quiches, two types of scones, salad, fruit and yogurt parfaits and of course white cake and chocolate cake cupcakes!
