Okay so I finally got my bridal shower pictures, so I figured I’d share them with you. Let’s start off with the important things: the eats. Who doesn’t love Sprinkles cupcakes? Seriously, if you don’t step away from the blog. They’re decorated with little circles that spell out LOVE and a topper that looks like a bridal gown, or anyway it’s supposed to. Don’t knock it- I made it.
We sort of had a wine tasting theme, and by sort of I mean 5 bottles of wine later… Anyway my beautiful co-hosts had glasses made with our names & the wedding date as favors. Very cute, now we have approximately 30 of these in our possession due to an over shipment. We shall never run out of pretty wine glasses! Hooray! We’re thinking of giving them away at the rehearsal dinner, why not we’ll never NEED 30 glasses!
Here are my FMIL and FSIL #2 having fun with the crazy games! I swear they are having fun!
And FSIL #1 posing for the camera! I sort of love the contrast of the Lily in the shot. Don’t you adore her spectacles? Got to have love for the Cat-Eye glasses.
Did I mention 1/2 of everyone there was in the medical profession? This is Mandy she’s studying to be a Naturopathic Physician. Yay Mandy! She got me eco-friendly/sustainable Bamboo serving spoons and a big Bamboo bowl. We tease her, she may or may not be a hippie. Not the Dirty kind, that’s her fiancé!
Here’s me “looking funny for the camera”? I seriously don’t know what the eff I’m doing. But it looks like I’m having a good time doing it! Our very talented, new-mother, and co-host, Stacy! The one who made those rockin’ packets with the questions. Seriously that is her precious 2 month old baby girl. Two. Months. Old. The lady is a craft-diva.
So the spot light was stolen by an adorable 2 month old baby girl. It seems fitting. So why try to upstage her adorableness. I’d rather show you my crazy chipmunk face. Otherwise known as the dreaded “bubblegum game” yes the one where they make fun of you for not knowing questions about your fiancé. BTW I got 4 wrong- the pieces of gum were GIGANTIC!
I hope you enjoyed virtually attending my bridal shower. Are you excited for your bridal shower? Have you already had one? Was there an awesome theme? Cupcakes? Wine? All of the above?

Aw, that baby is seriously adorable! And those cupcakes look soooo good. I'm having a cupcake today, and I can't wait!! Is it bad I was staring at the fireplace in awe? I love it so much. I'm kind of a fireplace freak. That brick surround is to die for.
My 2E's had hers not too long ago. She missed 7 of the 13 questions about me, and there was no bubble-gum or punishment of any kind. In fact, she received a gift for losing. I'd like a do-over.
The bubblegum game?!?! That sounds amazing. Can you share how that works? And the questions? I am planning a shower for my cousin and I think that would be so fun!

It looks like a great time, and I love the wine tasting theme! Adorable baby! :)
@Layla the fireplace is indeed awesome, it's white painted brick- sorry I don't have a better picture.
@Madman I would've loved a gift in lieu of 4 gigantic pieces of bubblegum.
@Teacherbride99 they ask you questions about your fiance and when you get one wrong you have to stuff a piece of gum in your mouth. LAME!
@Bicoastal Bride We also had people bring a bottle of wine to be entered for a prize $15 GC to BevMO!
So cute. I've heard sooo much about those Sprinkle cupcakes but I've never seen them before - according to their website (from your link) there's one opening in NYC in Feb 2011 - yaaay! :)
