Showered with Love

Here I am with my beautiful sisters, Kim on the left and Meredith on the right!

My Maids of Honor, yes I have three, and my mom threw me an incredible bridal shower.  Everything about it was perfect! We had an impeccable day and ALL of my 14 bridesmaids were able to make it up to celebrate.  I felt truly loved and showered with happiness.  The house and backyard looked so cute, I was floored at all the tiny details.  They printed out and framed lots of pictures of Joe and I and set them up around the house.  My sister-in-law had custom napkins made as seen below that I adored! Don't you just love them?

The generosity of my friends and family was incredible, I was showered with gifts from my registry, here I am below with my china, it is subtle but elegant and can match back to a lot pieces and table settings.  If you want a closer look you can find it at Bloomingdales, Monique Lhullier China!   

The food was catered by Kitchen Kabaret and it was delicious but, it was the desserts that I really need to talk about.  The cake was done by my dear friend Kristan and it was gorgeous.  The most beautiful cake I have ever seen, so chic and so yummy.  It was red velvet inside.  She also made the favors which were the cutest cake pops in our wedding colors.  Don't you love the tag too?

What I wore:

I loved my shower outfit, I felt very 'bride-like'.  Whatever that means! I guess I loved wearing white but I dressed it up with some bright colored accessories.  My dress was Shoshanna it was in a deauville summer tweed and the perfect silhouette for this amazing Kate Spade bib necklace.  I also wore Kate Spade pumps, they were in a bright blue to match the necklace, you can see them peaking out below:

It was the perfect day, I loved being surrounded by my beautiful friends and family.  I am so lucky and count my blessings everyday! 

The day was finished off with a visit from Joe, isn't he handsome!
