Yesterday afternoon my sister Marilyn and I hosted a bridal shower for our niece Tashena. The theme was Around the Clock and every guest was assigned a specific time of day in order to bring a gift that could be used at that time. The invitations featured gold and silver clocks and so our decorations were gold and silver and we has cute clocks as cupcake toppers. This theme was really fun because the gifts were so unique, such as the ingredients to make brunch, cooking items (a cock pot, an instant pot, and a wok) to make dinner, games to play in the afternoon, etc. We served chicken salad sandwiches on croissants, fruit cups, punch, and chocolate cupcakes. We only played one game (it is called bride babble), but it got everyone laughing out loud, and then Tashena opened her presents. It was really great to see so many of Tashena's family members and friends come and support her! Marilyn and I weren't sure if we could pull this off (huge thanks to Trent, Kristine, and Sean, especially during the balloon arch incident) but Tashena was happy and everyone seemed to have a good time so we are calling it a success!
Next up is the wedding in Washington state in May.
