Always a Bridesmaid

 
This weekend I helped to host a bridal shower for one of my best friends, Ashley! Our amazing, rock star friend is getting married next month so Saturday afternoon was all about her.


We planned a menu full of some of Ashley's favorite foods - spinach artichocke dips, fresh fruit and veggies, key lime pie, and cake balls. I made lots of tiny pies in cupcake wrappers so that guests could have a small taste of everything (or go back for lots more cake balls!).








The gifts. Let's be honest, it's fun to open presents at a shower that is in your honor. I'm glad that Ashley could be so spoiled by the people that love her.

We played Wedding Scategories and I pretty much rocked this game. I didn't win but I was the first one finished. This is a fun and easy shower game and could be used at a baby shower as well.

My friend Marianne made this awesome wreath and we pinned well wishes to it. I like that Ashley can hang it up with our cards on it for a while and then use the wreath somewhere else in her new home.

Marianne's home was the perfect place for the shower. I love the look of this room full of people that love Ashley.

 Bridesmaids! It's always an honor to be in a wedding for a great friend. Ashley and I have been friends for probably forever, or at least the past 8 or 9 years.

 The lone male. Pudge was crashing our party of girls but he didn't mind.

And Lola was as friendly as ever! Erica loved this sweet doggie. We all love little Lola.

 Some more great friends :)

 Ashley's family. Thanks to everyone who came out to shower Ashley with love!
