It rained, it poured, and I'm showered!!! WITH PICS! AND MORE PICS IN MY ALBUM!!
Hi Everyone!
My bridal shower was this Sunday in Long Beach at Minnesota's in the West End!
First off, my mom did an INCREDIBLE job handmaking all the balloon centerpiece baskets, the favor boxes, the napkin rings, and a 'Carly's Shower' sign - all from a mix of her arts and crafty skills with punches and ribbons, etc, as well as origami.
Secondly, my mom worked with Jason and Meagan and they were really helpful! They even had their staff take the flatscreen TV off and on and off and on the wall while my BMs were setting up a slideshow they made for me!
Here are a couple pics - but the majority are in my bridal shower album!!
Oh! And if you are ever going to be a BM - you must make your bride the wine bottles that my girls did! It's a wine bottle decorated for all the major events to celebrate in the first year of marriage! And each girl read me a poem they wrote about the bottle's celebration as they presented them!
yay!!!!!!!! congrats!!!!!!! u look so beautiful!!!!!!
sounds like a great shower and i love that wine thing..i havea bm getting married n nov and think im going to do that!!!!!!!

Yep! ABSOLUTELY!
And those Cookie CUtter things are actually also supposed to be used to put butter in and be a 'butter press' for when you're presenting it on a table at dinner!

Aww no! Make sure you send her the things I said the girls did the bottles for! I want you to get them - it's so much fun to display them in our apartment! There's a good pic in my album of all the bottles, and then each Bridesmaid read a little poem about their wine bottle to me as they presented it!
