I have to admit, it's been a LONG time since I've attended a bridal shower much less had the pleasure of hosting one in my home. Sadly, this is one of the celebrations that slows with age. It was such a sweet reminder that new beginnings are well deserved no matter where one is in life's journey. Whether saying "I do" to a long time love, renewing vows or rekindling with someone special, all love is sweet.
Thus it was with such excitement that some friends (with some special ones missing too) of the always darling Christine came together to honor her upcoming marital bliss. True to Christine, there were bits of pink everywhere and a delicious afternoon tea.
There were gifts, flowers, games and prizes ~ a little bit of everyone which made it even more special.
Jamie made these sweet bracelets with hemp. You make a wish and wear them until they come off.

Holly designed and sewed this beautiful envelope that held fabulous bridal inspired note cards for us to each write a special sentiment.
Christine, always the giver, brought gifts for everyone as well. These luxurious customized bath products from J. Bella are devine.
I truly can't think of anyone more deserving of a true fairytale beginning and happy ending. Much love to you sweet friend. . .
Loved your sweet blog about the shower. You created an amazing day for all of us!
