Bridal Shower!

My bridal shower was held three weekends ago by my sister and my aunt and it was so amazing!

I have to say it was the prettiest party I have ever been to. The day was so nice and made me feel so special.


Kelly brought these gorgeous cupcakes topped with homemade signs, they were so pretty I didnt even want to eat them.


The food Aunt Debbie did was so yummy, the chicken salad croissants and shrimp pasta salad were the best and the champagne punch with raspberry puree was addicting!


I swear my sister and mom started shopping for pink and green goodies right when I got engaged. They found so many cute things for display and prizes.




The only thing that didn't work out was the dress I bought for the shower, it was too cold to wear, but I decided to wear it for the bachelorette party so it work out in the end.




Another great thing about the shower was I got to keep a lot of the pretty little things for the wedding. I will be reusing some of the table clothes and the big frame with our engagement pictures along withe the Molly and Dan sign, yay!


Special little touches were so nice, I had a monogrammed pink and green wine glass for my yummy punch and even a wrist corsage.






I think everyone had a great time I know I did.
Thank you Kelly and Aunt Debbie for making it so gorgeous!

2 months to go!

We are exactly 2 months away from the wedding and most everything is done. I still have to put the favors together, make the card box and the placecards and holder, but really all we have left is fun stuff! I have my shower that my sister and aunt are throwing me on the 20th of February and I can’t wait! Look how pretty the invite is...


Then some time in March is my bachelorette party! Also in March we have a wedding to go to and then of course April 9th is the rehearsal dinner. With so many events I had a lot of outfits to find.



I saw this dress a long time ago before I was engaged and saved the picture and description on my computer because I just loved it, then when I got engaged and thought of the perfect event to wear it to, the rehearsal dinner, it was nowhere to be found, so since August, I had been looking on Ebay for it and finally two weeks ago I found it and its in my size!! It arrived this passed week and is even prettier in person! If I lose anymore weight it will have to be taken in, but my bridal salon said they would do it for me.


I had been eyeing this dress at Saks for a few months, but for no particular event, but then when it went almost half off I had to grab it and decided it’s the dress I will wear to the shower, of course dressing it down without those heels.

Now for the wedding and bachelorette party I have ideas but nothing found yet. I am thinking red for the wedding, maybe something one shoulder also, there is a dress at my bridal salon that I have my eye on, but its pricey since its...yes a bridesmaid’s dress...shocking! and its one size smaller than I am right now, but I still have a month so we will see. For the bachelorette party I am thinking something fun, and little wild and 80’sish.
