Held in a fantastic sophisticated venue, this Modern Elegant Pink And Blue Shower was a beautifully arranged event. With the skill of Monarchy Blue Weddings & Events, this party had everything a bride-to-be could want in her bridal shower.

The guest seating was set up family style in long rows that made it easy for the visitors to chat as they enjoyed the food provided.  Each table was accented with cute little bouquets of pink and white flowers that were in short vases so everyone could see each other with ease.

One fun activity at this party was giving advice to the newlyweds on lovely circular tags that were made to match the invitations to the event, ensuring that the theme was blended smoothly throughout the party. Another bit of excitement added to this party was a bowl full of flower with a card for each guest to guess how many there were inside.

The table that held the desserts was pure elegance, filled with delightful treats for everyone to enjoy. It had a simple white cover that allowed the soft colors and details of the desserts to stand out gorgeously. A tower of donuts stood on a white tray looking quite inviting.  Adorable cookies were frosted in sweet detail alongside some decadent cake pops with swirly sticks. There was even a mini tray that held an absolutely adorable cookie sandwich that had a yellow flower right on top.

The cake for the party was a stunner in layers and draped with a perfect arrangement of autumn colored flowers.  Set on a tall white tray, this was the true centerpiece of this delicious table.

With the bride getting married in Cancun, it made perfect sense to have a bit of Spanish culture incorporated into this lovely Colorful Spanish Garden Shower.

Taking advantage of a lovely, sunny day, the party was held outdoors.  Lavish, brilliantly colored paper flowers provided by CindyPaperie, filled the venue with beauty. An adorable decoration filled with flowers and “Cindy’s Bridal Shower” spelled out in gold letters made a lovely photo op for the guests.

An awning was set up so everyone could eat comfortably.  A row of pink hanging lanterns added a touch of color overhead. The guest tables were covered in alternating black and white covers, creating a neat striped effect.  Striped runners were used as well, standing out fantastically. Black and white chairs added to this modern idea perfectly.  The tables had gorgeous floral arrangements as centerpieces along with adorable framed photos of the happy couple.

One lovely idea used at this event as a lasting gift for the couple was set on a beautifully decorated table.  An arrangement of photos matted in white allowed for each guest to sign with words of love, encouragement and wisdom.

Some fun games played at this party included the traditional “Try not to say” game where the guests are given a few words often used at parties to try to avoid the entire party.  A fun mad lib station was set up too. One unique game was a “Text Me” game where everyone got to guess how often the couple texted each other.

Some delicious desserts offered at the party included churros, pineapple upside down cakes and watermelon on a stick.

For a perfect take-home gift, guests were able to choose their own Mexican candies as well as flower hair clips.

When the bride’s name begins with a letter T and it is going to become the first letter of her married name and she loves drinking tea, it only makes sense to create a Delightful Garden Tea Shower to celebrate the pending nuptials! With the expertise of owner and event stylist Paula Clemente Woods, this exquisite theme came to life at her 14 & Hudson venue.

An actual T-Bar was designed to perfection on a small rectangular table.  With a light up T and metal bar letters, the table was labeled in a fun way.  Small tea kettles were filled up with gorgeous bold and soft pink toned flowers, giving this tea party a fantastic natural touch.  Framed art added a personal look advertising the tea party beautifully.  Lovely little tea cups placed in a row at the front of the table were filled up with various types of tea so that the guests could choose their favorites. A bowl of honey with a honey stick and cubes of sugar were also provided to add a bit of sweet. This table was even set in front of a window, providing lots of light.

Dessert was a floral delight, two cakes on adorable cake trays frosted in white and decorated with flowers that matched the decor spectacularly.

Delicious beverages were provided including orange, guava and peach juice, alongside fresh fruit for everyone to enjoy.

The entire venue was artfully decorated from dangling strands of pink flowers to adorable little green jars spelling out “XOXO.”  Over the fireplace “LOVE” lit up the room and was surrounded with candles for a romantic touch. For a unique decoration, napkins were even labeled in gold with the bride and groom’s names along with the date they were getting married.

This Travel Inspired Bridal Shower was created with the innovative skill of Pocket Full of Parties.  Using a nice mix of bold orange and soft blue tones, the venue for this event was fantastic.

The dessert table was full of neat travel based decorations along with sweet treats that was sure to keep the guests happy.  A backdrop was made from a map and bordered with orange and white stripes, allowing it to stand out dramatically.

Each edible was labeled with a personalized tag that had a map and an airplane on it for effect.  There were actually chocolate airplane lollipops placed in a neat little lunch box holder that drew the eye. Other delicious additions to this table included blue and orange macaroons, sugar cookies shaped into travel items like airplanes.

There were several unique decorations that made this party a one-of-a-kind.  A globe stood on one end of the table beside a vase full of wonderful map pinwheels.  There were also adorable little umbrellas made from maps as well. On the other side of the table a vintage plane stood displaying an adorable orange and blue sign.  Map piggy banks made another cute addition to the table.  

Little flower bouquets were perfect fillers throughout the table with white and orange blooms that looked quite lovely. They even had little signs with places around the world on them in adorable fonts and patterns.  Cupcakes were frosted in a delightful light blue color and had airplane labels for a sweet accent.

A tower of treats stood on top of a vintage suitcase holding a fun arrangement of chocolate bars, salt water taffy, peanuts and more. Individually wrapped in personalized packaging, each of these could be taken home and enjoyed. The top of the suitcase even had a label saying, “In Flight Snacks” and had passports, tickets and a key on it.
