Thanks to Old Time Pottery, I was able to give our back patio a peaceful refresh with these spring images in mind. […]

Love in Bloom

Mother's Day

April 20, 2010

This weekend we celebrated the upcoming wedding of our two friends, Bonnie and Paul, with a lovely cherry blossom themed bridal shower. My friend Ashley styled the event-I was in charge of drinks this time ;)

This theme was light and airy with spring blooms and shades of pink. Perfect for spring and perfect for LOVE.

Enjoy some pics from Saturday….

The pretty invitations that gave a sneak peek to guests of what was to come.

The all important food table with a pink cherry blossom centerpiece and pink accents.

Adorable cupcakes Nicole made. She also made the circles-I keep telling her she needs to start selling these! The "B" was for the bride's soon-to-be last name, and of course more cherry blossoms.

Delicious fruit cups that not only taste great but look so pretty displayed. Recipe to come in a later post-they are so EASY.

A close up of the coordinating pink cherry blossom ribbon that added a special touch.

More cherry blossom accents for outside.

Hope this shower will inspire you to try something new for your next celebration! This is a great example of how carrying through a color or item can really tie everything together! This theme would also work well for Mother's Day or a spring party.
