My parents were up this weekend and we put together mock ups of our centerpieces. The photos aren't the greatest, but I am really really happy with how it all turned out.

Guest Tables (The # won't be crooked! We just taped it to a stick to see how it would look!)

I am also having my bachelorette party while I am in Cuba. My sister is planning a nautical themed party and we're hoping to go on a catamaran for the day. I was at Old Navy and found this nautical inspired dress and flip flops!

Since we'll be on a catamaran (hopefully) I used a pair of older bikini bottoms and ironed on a Bride decal.

 

I think she also plans on getting sailor hats to complete the look! I can't wait!

 

This weekend is my Bridal Shower. So hopefully I have some photos to post from that after the weekend!

@@talicea7812 I had wanted a bit sexier of a bach party outfit, but I couldn't find what I was looking for and this dress is so cute and fun and soo comfy! So it will do! Plus it couldn't fit the theme any better! I also got a gold anchor necklace and earrings!

Wedding Shower

 

This past weekend my amazing friends and family threw me a wedding shower. It was so much fun and I have never felt so much love in my life! There were a few important friends and family members who weren't able to make it because they live out of province/country. One of my more technologically advanced friends put together a video slideshow with video messages from my sister and a few really good friends. It was probably my favourite part of the day! Anyhow here are a few photos from the shower.

 

 

Too cute!

 

Amazing spread of desserts!

 

My beautiful cake!

 

My friend who hosted the shower owns a Desserterie and Bar, so all of the food and desserts and cocktails were amazing!
