What A Blast!

The bridal shower was so much fun! I loved how it turned out. I think the guests enjoyed themselves and the most important part....my future daughter in law had a great time!


Obviously the theme was Asian and I had so much fun with it. The place settings came together...thanks to Lois (a great customer at PV...she loaned me the cartridge to make the beautiful fans--thanks Lois!) I also embossed the napkin tags with the Chinese symbol for Love.
The cupcakes turned out better than I had imagined. I had them baked for me and frosted high, I then added the red glitter and the fortune cookie. I love how they look! Wahoo!
This shows some of the food! We definitely had plenty! It isn't even all set out in this shot. We had Asian food...chow mein noodles, pot stickers, egg rolls, rice, and then I threw in carrots, tomatoes, snap peas and edamame, chocolate covered strawberries (which were far easier to make than I had thought they would be), vegetarian meatballs, shrimp, crackers and dip. Yummy!
Here is a closeup of the cupcakes....I added my own fortune. And the fun "lucky numbers" are the wedding date! Love it!
This is a shot of the back of Sabrina's hair. Isn't it gorgeous! Her dress was beautiful. Everyone wore beautiful Asian dresses also. All in all it was a great party and I am just thrilled that it all came together so well. I am so blessed to have a wonderful daughter in law! Can't wait for the wedding!
