Wedding Update #42 - CA Bridal Shower!
The reason Brian and Vanessa came for a visit this weekend was this shower, and I’m so happy they came because we all had a really great time! The shower was a lot of fun too!
My friends Amanda and Renee hosted a very fun tea-party themed shower, complete with finger sandwiches (so yummy), scones, and individual teapots! The party also had a “time” theme - where each guest was asked to bring a gift that would be used at a certain time of day, with the example of movie tickets for 7pm. I got lots of lovely gifts, and I want to say thank you again to everyone who was able to come.
We played a couple games - the first of which was a word scramble. Vanessa won by being the first person to unscramble all the “tea” related words - even though she unscrambled “china” as “chain” on her first try. At least it was a word that kinda made sense - because I did the same thing except with “silver” which I unscrambled as “livers.”
We also played “gift bingo” where everyone had to write down gifts they thought I would receive. No one actually won that game, so we all shared the prizes Renee had picked out, which were these really nice candles that smelled like different kinds of fruity drinks (I got raspberry cosmopolitan). We had a lot of laughs - as I got to see all my aqua fitness friends (aqua princesses!) with “all their clothes on” - and we all shared fun games we’ve played at other shower-type parties. I really liked the time/tea party theme, so much so that I might use it myself in the future!
