A Bridal Shower

This past weekend I was in the cities to help throw a bridal shower for my friend Justine. It was a brunch shower so we did most of the decorating and cooking/baking the night before. I managed to take a few photos of the day, but there were many details that I didn't get a chance to catch.

Details of the day:

Make your own paper bag and book page flowers.

Mini German Pancake Recipe with Triple Berry Sauce

Chocolate Truffles  (I added peppermint to the recipe)

Homemade Coffee Creamers (we made the peppermint mocha & the pumpkin spice)


It was a wonderful morning filled with wonderful people and delicious food.

Photos Photos!

My sister-in-law Jen put up some more wedding photos on her blog if you want to go check them out. I hardly have any photos of the actual wedding day since my camera was being used for the photo booth. Luckily I have a talented relative who takes beautiful photos so I can share with you. Check out her blog below to see the rest.

PreWedding

We were able to decorate at the reception venue the day before the wedding, so my sister gathered up friends and family to help. I was kind of in and out the whole day because I went on an errand to get some more candles. It was a fun and busy day, that was made all the better with the numerous helping hands. My sister worked hard on all the details as you will see below.
