tiffanysShower invitation by Jack’s Master

So last week we featured Karen’s wedding for Wedding Wednesday. In keeping with Karen’s wedding festivities, I thought I’d share the awesome bridal shower that the maid and matron (me) of honor and our aunt threw her. The theme was “A Southern Breakfast at Tiffanys.” Karen loves Audrey Hepburn stuff, so I thought it would only be girlie and appropriate! We made it more of a brunch and served pastries, eggs, bacon, coffee, juice and of course MIMOSAS!

In keeping with the Tiffanys theme, we had fake powder cigarettes with cigarette holders. Those were a hit! We served mints in Tiffany boxes. Photos of Audrey Hepburn were scattered around along with quotes from the movie. For decorations we made Martha Stewart poof balls and hung “Here comes the bride” banners as well as had streamers and balloons in various pastel colors. The centerpieces were aqua mason jars with white flowers placed in them.

I wish I’d gotten more (and better) pics of the shower, but I was too busy playing bartender :) Here’s what I got though:

Is that ok? No? Poop. I miss planning my wedding :( I really did have so much fun planning it, and I was proud of myself when I was able to look back on everything and know that I made it come to life. And it was so much fun teaming up with my sister to brainstorm and design some of the cuter details of the big day! (She really is phenomenal. She designed all of the wedding stationery and I’ll definitely have to post pictures of them and of my wedding day when we get the rights to them). I think the thing that I miss the most about planning my wedding are reading wedding magazines, (especially my beloved Martha!) and perusing my favorite wedding blogs. My sister introduced me to one of my absolute favorites: Style Me Pretty Oh, it’s glorious! I seriously miss sitting at my computer every morning with my Dunkin’ Donuts coffee and drooling over the eye candy on this website. They featured this adorable Chapel Hill wedding on their blog and I absolutely fell in love:

Such a precious couple!

When I saw this post, I fell in love with everything about this wedding. It’s so beautiful and sweet, and the bride and groom look like they had a blast!
