bridal brunch shower

Yesterday was "Sweets" anticipated day...her 1st bridal shower!  It was wonderful, the food was wonderful, the friends that came out were wonderful and most of all, Sarah loved it all!  Here's sharing some moments of her Peacock themed shower.

Peacock Details:

the beautiful peacock cake made by Katie Martindale from College Station (the thirsty gourmet)

(one of my best friends very talented daughter)

 mother of the groom's wedding dress circa 1974

 crocheted wedding barbie dress that Sar's grandma (my mom),

made for her when she was born as a wedding gift

(Sarah had never seen it until today)

circa 1985

 menu display I made using an antique window I bought in Bethany Iowa (at one of my favorite antique shops), during Sarah's first year of college in Iowa 

 one of the table centerpieces...I got Landon's mom to send me his school year pictures

and I combined it with Sarah's to use as the table numbers

the old door backdrop are doors I recycled from Nolan Ryan's ranch a few years back
