We had a great turn-out and everyone had a wonderful time showering Audrey with her "special" gifts in preparation for her wedding night and honeymoon. I just wanted to share some of the decorations we prepared and pictures of the event.
All of us 3 hosts decided on a pink and black color scheme but leaned more towards a vertical stripe for the pink (if we could find it) to look similar to Victoria's Secret's vertical stripes. It was fun putting all the pieces together. I was in charge of the invitations and made them in Photoshop Elements. I love how they turned out and Audrey loved them too!
I wrapped scrapbook paper around these glass vases (Dollar General) I had and just did a laced up effect with ribbon and stuck some pink flowers in them. They turned out pretty cute! It was a pinterest idea.
My sister-in-law, Mandy let us use her house for the shower and we decorated her mantle. She made the clothes-line with panties on it. I made the "Ooh la la" banner.
My poor brother's deer head even got decorated. LOL!
Yummy chocolate cupcakes with pink and black icing that about 3 inches tall! I will have to say that the black icing made for interesting discussions. Lets just say there were more black cupcakes left than pink and we some of us looked a bit like zombies. LOL They were really yummy though!
I made Raspberry punch and it was GONE by the end. It's so easy to make too. For this pink one I used 1 2-liter of Raspberry soda, 1 large can of pineapple juice, 1 half gallon of raspberry sherbet and 1 can of sweetened condensed milk. Just mix all together.
We each made a dish too. I made chicken enchilada roll-ups. We also had chocolate covered strawberries, hot spinach dip, a fruit salad and ham and cheese sliders.
Just one picture of people from the fun night of us hostesses and the bride-to-be. L-R: my sister-in-law Mandy, my cousin Breanna and my sister, Audrey and me.
Audrey got lots of nice goodies and all in so many different and pretty colors. We played a fun game where she had to guess the answers to some questions that we had asked her Groom, Jeff, prior to the party. For each one she got wrong, she had to chew a big piece of bubble gum. She ended up with 7 pieces of gum in her mouth and could hardly talk by the end!! LOL!
