My 1st Bridal Shower.

I am so excited to make this posting. I attended my first bridal shower a couple of Saturdays ago! Woohoo! We had a fabulous time. Thanks to my sisters and my dear friends Trice and Rhonda for pulling this together for me. Thank you ladies! It was so great to see everyone. I have to admit that I shed happy tears when I realized that certain people were in attendance that I was not expecting. I was honored to have everyone at a gathering to celebrate Clyde and I and our upcoming nuptials. Let's talk details! This one took place here in Atlanta and was themed "A Day at the Derby." There were fab hats, dresses and pearls. Every table was named after a horse that had won the Kentucky Derby and that was showcased by fabulous table cards.

My Mother and I rocking our hats.
Here are a few pics of me and some of my shower guests.
Rhonda Patton Weddings and Papered Wonders, Inc. were responsible for the beautiful decor and stationary. Below is the Welcome/Sign In Table with well wish and entrance tickets. How cute is this? I loved the decor! They did a FAB job!

Here are some of the decorative items designed by Rhonda Patton Weddings for my shower. Rhonda's website may be found at http://www.rhondapattonweddings.com/ She is your go to person for any floral or event design needs. Her work is impeccable and speaks for itself. She was a must have vendor for our upcoming wedding. That tells you how spectacular her work is!

Papered Wonders, Inc. created all of the stationary products. Here are a few pictures of the various stationary items that were custom made for my shower. Here the link to their website: http://paperedwonders.com/


There were the cards that the attendees wrote their well wishes on. Notice the details of the chic lady in the fierce hat...loves it. I'd love to rack a hat just like that for the Oaks races and Derby races in Kentucky! Just FAB! The idea of using these cards were so creative. The well wishes and heartfelt messages were so sweet. I finally had an opportunity to read them last night and some of them made me teary eyed while others made me laugh.

Monograms

Let's talk monograms! Monograms help to provide an elegant touch to a wedding or any event. It helps to incorporate more of a personal touch to stationary, favors and reception decor. The first initials of the bride and the groom may be used, or the three initials of both members of the bridal couple may be incorporated into the design. There are many ways to design a monogram. Usually the grooms last name (soon to be bride's last name) is the middle initial and then the the first initial of the bride is first and the grooms first initial is last or you can use the initial of the last name and their entire first names. You can also use a monogram on table lines, wedding cakes, and even napkins or favors. Here are some of our monograms. Be creative and add that special touch to your event.Peace, The Future Mrs.

Decked out shoes...

I have two, yes, two pair of PERFECT shoes for our wedding day. Come on, surely, you're not surprised. Did you expect ME to have just one FAB pair? But of course not ;) I cannot wait to show them to you after the wedding and in our wedding pics. They're worth the wait. Though they are perfect, when I saw this pic...I was like Caa-yuuute (cute)! This would be a relatively easy DIY task. Hmm, to do or not to do...either way I'll be saying I DO soon!
