shannon's bridal shower



This weekend I went to a bridal shower for my best friend Shannon.  She spent some time in the UK as an au pair so her Sister decided to throw her a tea party.



Shannon and her Sister Schyler


Flowers from the market and the bride's chair.
I think some of the most inventive decorations comes from what you
 have lying around the house...this is a lace table cloth my grandma gave me


Cupcake Royal minis
I ate most of them...


All the bridesmaids pitched in and brought something


Rena (Mother of the Bride) making tea


My Earl Grey...right before the chocolates melted on the plate


Tea service


This was a funny game I'd never played before.  They are honeymooning in Hawaii,
so each sock contains something you would find in Hawaii.  A snorkel, a shell necklace, etc.
You can only use your feet to feel and guess.


Gifts


Shannon's bow bouquet
Her MIL brought the button of her Fiance to add ;)


Bff's


Parting favors, antique spoons to stir your tea!

How was your weekend?

Adore the antique spoons. And the beautiful tea service.

I picked up some antique lace table cloths last month. Time to use them.
