This weekend I had the pleasure of saving the memories of a bridal shower. The bridesmaids have known the bride-to-be since they were in the seventh grade, and they went all out for her. The theme of the party was a collection of Helen’s favorite things, they had trays of delicious healthy snacks, hummus, fresh salmon, fruit, carrot cake and cupcakes, and even a tea bar. We joked that the whole event looked like a Pinterest board, but you could tell these girls put everything into it and everything was full of heart. When I had moments alone with the bridesmaids one-on-one, they all said the same thing. “Helen is so worth it.”
I think that speaks volumes, when a group of five girls all say the same thing about a person. It was an amazing friendship I was able to catch a glimpse of on Saturday. Congratulations, bridesmaids, on throwing a stunning shower, and congratulations to Helen, may you and your Charles have many long years of happiness ahead.

30 May 2013 at 7:42 pmCan I ask what game you ladies were playing with the moustache props?
Sara
31 May 2013 at 10:09 pmThe game they were playing was called Mustaches & Tiaras! It’s basically twenty questions that both the groom and bride-to-be answer, but only one answer to each question is read aloud.
The guests then display which person they think matches the answer by holding up either a tiara or a mustache. The guest who has the most correct wins!
