As is customary for brides-to-be, a shower was held for my little sister this weekend, one that was hosted by her roommates. Now I won’t embarass her like I did with her previous shower (other than to throw in one or two pictures of her at the end) but I wanted to show the amazing job that the hostesses did in arranging the party. Being a fan of such blogs as Decor8blog and Hostess with the Mostess, I can appreciate a good decorating situation. And this was definitely to my liking. First, check out the total spread:

Beautiful, isn’t it? Now for a closer look…

The colors are autumnal and vibrant and each item complements the others from the white serving stands and green platters to the white napkins tied with orange ribbon and even the orange and white flowers.


No detail was overlooked. The fruit was neatly skewered and the petit fours were topped with the letter “T,” the first letter of the bride’s name.


Keeping with the autumnal theme, each item was labeled with a card propped up by a miniature hay-stack. And there was a little something for everyone.
Mini vegetable quiches…

Warm coffee cake…

Fruit (for the more health-minded guest)

And the oh-so-yummy carameled mini-apples.

Aren’t they gorgeous?

Even the water looked great.

It was hard tearing myself away from taking pictures of this beautiful set-up. But I did. I wanted to take pictures of my sister holding up see-through lingerie so that I could embarrass her later (I told you I would post a photo or two). I mean it was a bridal shower, right?


But don’t worry, it didn’t get to crazy. There was a baby present afterall. (Check out the look on his cute little face – he’s wondering what in the world that is!) Actually, I think my sister was wondering the same thing.

Good thing I was there to explain it to her.
