A Bridal Shower for the Lovebirds

Last month, I went to Milwaukee for a bridal shower and bachelorette party for my dear college friend J.  She and A. are getting married in September, and I'm honored to be a part of the wedding party.

J's aunt and cousin hosted the bridal shower at an adorable little venue in a park, right by a pond.  We ate lunch and admired all the lovely gifts J. received (and her fabulous dress!).  In the middle of the shower, we noticed it was raining—one of those humid, summer downpours—but since we were indoors, it made the party feel cozy and relaxed.  Getting to catch up and spend time with some of my best college girlfriends that weekend was just wonderful.

And the decor was Pinterest-worthy, so I had to share with you all.  The hostesses did a marvelous job!

(As for the bachelorette pictures... well, those are going to have to stay under wraps!)

The herbs acted as decor for the shower... and favors for the guests to take with them!

"Love bird" theme :)

Love the tulle and turquoise!  And the napkin rings featured a circular tag with the couple's monogram.
