Mel’s Bridal Shower

What an amazing bridal shower.  It was such a gorgeous day!  Debbie and Erin put together one heck of a party.  Here are some pictures from the amazing day!  The bridal party gave Mel a honeymoon basket with her luggage, flip flops, candlelight dinner and couple’s massage on the beach at their resort and other little goodies:

I bought her candles from Yankee Candle and wrote her a note  for when she should light each candle through the year.  Her mom, Debbie, wrote her a poem using household items.  Tara and Teri asked Pete questions about Mel.  Every time she would get a question wrong she’d have to chew a piece of gum.  Of course at first we told her it would be a cherry tomato.  And Mel abhors tomatoes!

What a great shower! Mel looks beautiful and is just beaming! You can see her happiness shining through in all these pictures! Awesome gift idea from the bridal party, I'm sure that was one of her faves. What an amazing wedding this will be! Oh and I just have to tell you how jealous I am of Preston's tan in the last post! I think these kids have the right idea, transforming into fish for the summer!

The honeymoon gift basket from the bridal party is such a great gift idea! It looks like everyone had a great time celebrating!
Beautiful pictures! Does she have 8 ladies in her bridal party?!

Great ideas! I really like the idea of bridal showers. You have so much of fun with your girls and sometimes pretend to be the groom. It was lovely going through this post, she looks beautiful in this white dress. I am also planning to wear white for my bridal shower which is next week in a fine LA venue.
