My Lovely, Lavender-Inspired Bridal Shower!!

Today, one of my Maids of Honor, Jennifer, posted photos of the AMAZING bridal shower she and Jessie threw me last weekend! To see the "behind the scenes" ideas, thoughts, and photos as well as the "after" photos, check it out here: tidbitsnpieces.blogspot.com

I had some of my own photos of the lovely decor, so I thought I'd share some, too!

Tried to get a wide-angle shot...It's all coming together!
The lovely lavender decorations -- they know it's my favorite color! :)
Such a beautiful table -- before the yummy food!!
I would like to point out many of the talented crafty ideas in the photo above -- first, the paper flower in the back. So creative and absolutely adorable! (A lot of fun to make, I might add!) Also, Jenn and Jess framed our wedding invitation in a classic white frame that really adds a nice detail to the table. The cute little note cards detailing what was in the bowls and on the platters added to the sophisticated look -- and everyone knew what they were piling their plates with!


Mmmmmmm...


The Advice Table
This table was designated as the "Advice Table" where guests wrote little nuggets of valuable advice...however before I could get my hands on some of the cards, Jennifer plucked them away, saying that she was saving them for a later date! So, I guess we will have to wait and see! (She's so gosh darn cute!)

The party favors!!
These adorable little favors were a hit! Everyone had fun picking their favorite to take home. I even got to keep one!! It's actually the middle one in the front row.

The homemade flowers, accompanied by mason jar tea-light candles and jars of dried lavender!
More lavender and tea-lights in mason jars!
The little bunches of dried lavender and the mason jars harboring tea-lights were some of my favorite details! So delicate -- it was like having a garden party in my dining room!

More tea cozies and lavender...notice one of our engagement shots in the background! :)
It was a wonderful bridal shower, filled with tons of love and creativity!! Thank you so much, Jennifer and Jessie, for hosting such a lovely time.
