Hi everyone! It’s been awhile since I’ve written a post but it turns out planning a wedding takes a lot of work! I will admit the entire process has been quite daunting and a ton of work. Being the DIYer that I am I wanted to take on at least one task so I decided to make my own invitations. I’ve made tons of invitations before so I knew what to expect but being that these were our wedding invitations it quickly became a much bigger deal! I’m happy to say they turned out just as I wanted and the response cards are slowly rolling in! The wedding is less than 2 months away and the excitement is really starting to build now!
This past weekend my amazing mother and MOH, my best friend, threw me the most beautiful shower a girl could ask for! I didn’t know anything about it other than the date and the location. It was held at the same restaurant that Frank and I had brunch the morning he proposed to me, The Bedford Post Inn in Bedford, NY. My best friend took on the task of decorating the space and there was no way I couldn’t come on here and share it because she blew me away!! I seriously think she needs to start a party planning business! The theme she went with was blush and gold…I mean could she know me any better??
I love the rose gold and gold spray painted bottles!
This dessert table was everything!! My incredibly talented cousin (who is a baker) created this gorgeous and equally delicious cake for me! I was obsessed with it!
Look at the detail work she put into this! Can you imagine? She placed each of those edible pearls on all by hand! Labor of love for sure!The setting was as amazing as the day was!
Here are a few pictures from when I first walked in. This picture clearly shows my reaction when I saw everything!
Me and the soon to be Mr. And my beautiful best friend who created all this gorgeousness that you just witnessed! I don’t know what I would do without her!
You can find my skirt HERE! I was so in love with it! I literally felt like Cinderella in it! I went to Joann’s and purchased a gold sequin ribbon to create a belt to give it a little touch of sparkle and the lace top was one I already owned!
We are officially 50 days away from the wedding and I cannot wait!!
That is my all time favorite color palette! My shower was the same colors
I literally got teary eyed over how beautiful everything looked! From the rustic V mixed in with the gold love balloons to that beautiful cake it’s to die for!! And that outfit couldn’t be more perfect. You are going to be the most stunning bride. Thanks for sharing!
Stunning absolutely stunning!!!! <3 So happy for you, they did an amazing job
I would love to know which color skirt this is and if this is the full skirt? Thanks
It is the full skirt and it’s in Champagne!
Where did you get your outfit at?
Loved all the details – always YES to rose-gold anything!! Also, you were totally channeling your inner Carrie Bradshaw with that gorgeous skirt!
I’m looking for an outfit like this for my engagement photos. Where did you get the shirt and skirt? It’s the best combination I’ve seen and the quality looks amazing!
It’s all in the post!
What about your shoes!? They are gorgeous!!
Thanks! They are from Go Jane… http://m.gojane.com/109102.html
I LOVE your outfit! I am trying to replicate this for my bridal shower! Do you know the length of this skirt?
Thanks Meagan! I ordered the very full tulle skirt in Champagne in small and the length was 19.5″ …congrats on your engagement!
Looks like you really enjoyed your bridal shower. I love your outfit.
You two make an adorable couple. And I love your dress.
Where did you get your top?
The top was from Forever 21 but it’s about 2 years old. If you google long sleeve lace top you could probably find something very similar
Can you let us know where you got the outfit? It’s amazing!
Thanks Jenny! If you read the blog post all the info is in there with a link as well.
I love the whole outfit ! Where did you find those shoes????
Thanks Colleen! I got them here…http://m.gojane.com/121780.html
Just wondering where you got your top from? It’s gorgeous
I purchased it at Forever 21 but it’s a couple of years old! If you google “lace long sleeve top” quite a few options come up that are similar
What a beautiful bridal shower! Everything looks very very nice! I was wondering if you could share which gold spray paint was used to spray the bottles? Thank you!
Thank you! The spray paints used were Krylon Color Masters in Rose Gold and Gold
