A Brunch & Bubbly Bridal Shower

/ Jodi

I had the joy and privilege of hosting a Brunch & Bubbly Bridal Shower for my bright and bubbly daughter-in-law to be this past weekend.

I had fun decorating and preparing for our girly party!

Thanks to Matron of Honor and beautiful sister, Laura, and loving, gentle mom, Pat for co-hosting with me.

(And a super special thanks to my BFF Jill for taking all of these photos as well as helping with anything else needed while I was busy hosting.)

Liz was surrounded by the love of her Mom and three sisters…

and there is another beautiful girl on the way to add to this gang!

First things first – the Bubbly!

and a toast to the bride-to-be.

Friends and family attended.

Families mingled meeting and getting to know each other…

and several generations shared in the joy and love.

New moms and great grandmoms…

and moms with babies on the way,

and moms who get to share ❤ .

Then there was brunch.

Where we served a buffet of Chicken  Salad on Sliced Crostini, Crispy Veggies with Hummus, Fresh Fruit and Honey Walnut Brie, along with…

Mini BLTs served on Heart-shaped biscuits,

Loaded Deviled Eggs,

and a Strawberry Spinach Salad with Feta Cheese and Candied Pecans.

Aunt Kathy made the MOST amazing cupcakes I’ve every tasted!  Strawberry Lemon with Swiss Meringue Buttercream Frosting,

My friend, Pam who makes the most amazingly beautiful sugar cookiedoodles, made these gorgeous and delicious treats that we served along with my cookie pops.

The guests brought and shared amazing gifts for our newlyweds to be.

We played a few games.  Pretty simple ones really… Like guess the number of corks and gave away prizes when a timer went off during gift opening.

Some sweet and funny stories were shared when guests filled out a “Mad Lib” story…

and then chose to share with the group.

And then the groom-to-be (my son, Nick) arrived with flowers, smiles, and a tight hug.

Favors of Homemade Lavender Sugar Scrub were given to guests as a thank you before leaving.

A kiss and an “I love you” at the end of the day, but the beginning of a lifetime.  (with a little bit of sweet granddaughter drool on my shoulder)

It was a great day to celebrate a great young lady!

Love you Liz!

Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi

Thanks Jill!

    • Awh. Thanks Jane! I don’t think I’d love it as a business as much as I do just doing it for those I love. 😉💕. Glad your doing well and still enjoying that yummy bread.

  27. Your daughter-in-law is so beautiful, and you son is so handsome! Most of all, everyone looks incredibly happy in the photos. And honestly, I have never seen anyone who can throw a party quite like you do. If you ever decide to switch careers, I think you would be in huge demand as a party-planner!

    • They are really both very beautiful inside and out!❤. Many hands helped with the party and I love hosting for family and friends. A career of it wouldn’t be nearly as fun I don’t think.

  31. What an absolutely lovely shower. I love these “girl” showers that are intimate, fun and so lovingly special. It seems so many young women opt for the big party of mixed couples which is okay but it’s just not the same. Call me old-fashioned but this looks like a marvelous shower and truly beautiful- my favorite kind.
