I have been helping plan a shower/ bachlorette party for jim's cousin. she is getting married this saturday, valentines day in normal. so over the phone i have been working with her sister and her mom to plan the perfect girls night out the night before the wedding. one of the good things is that there will not be a lot of crazyness because she is having a baby in june. so we are doing everything very classy and low key to celebrate her time before she takes the marital plunge and the baby leap very soon.
we have decided to hold the shower at a local hotel that has loft rooms with fireplaces and beautiful motif and furniture. we are decorating the room with candles, confetti, streamers, balloons and banners in pink and white. her wedding colors are black, white and pick. very elegant for a valentines day wedding. we are holding the shower for her after the rehersal dinner the night before the wedding. the ladies and girls will come after dinner and we will provide punch, cupcakes, fruit and candy. we will have a quick devotional about marraige and love (which I am writing! eek!), play a few bridal games and then have facials and manicures.
i am making the favors for the actual wedding so i have been consumed with what i want to make and perfecting the thoughts i want to manifest into something tangible. i can't wait until it is all over... although i am excited to know that as of saturday afternoon, i will be off the hook of planning, setting up and preparing and can really just enjoy the party.
right now, my only thought and (rather large) concern is who is going to watch Cali when we are gone. I am struggling to find someone who will be available for the 2 nights we are gone to watch a rather large and barkative german shepherd... Something will happen though and it will all work out.
I will post some pics of the final product but there were a few ideas that i used for insipration.
have a good week!
