Christina's Bridal Shower Open house
in lieu of reception
April 2014
Beautiful day for a backyard bridal shower! Christina and Matt are getting married May 9, 2014. They will be getting Married in the Salt Lake City Temple. They will not be having two receptions for each home town due to cost. So a bridal shower open house was the next best thing. Most of the decorations were DIY projects.
"Pin Marriage Advice" Christina and Matt received some great advice. They plan on hanging this Chicken wire pin~board with the marriage advice in their new home.
Strawberry Lemonade, Hawaiian Haystacks, Vanilla Cream Cupcakes, Chocolate Dipped Strawberries, and Chocolate Swirl Cookies for Lunch!
Homemade burlap triangle flags hung as decorations.
"Love is Sweet"
This homemade vintage chalkboard was made from an old thrift store purchase. It hung just above the desserts.
Spray~painted paper lanterns Gold for Christina's color scheme!
Homemade Candy dishes for the Sweet's table. I ran out of time to actually buy pink colored candy to put in them, but they made a great decoration. Vases and Candle stick holders were found at a thrift store and painted white. Total cost was under $5. :)
Bridal Shower Runway!!
Bride, Groom, Bridesmaids, and Flower girl were all involved.
Pictures of the Couple's Engagements and Bridals were hung with cloths pins with twain.
and they lived happily ever after....
