Bridal Shower Weekend

I enjoyed a big celebration this past weekend for my bridal shower. Many family members and friends were able to make it to my Aunt's house for a lovely afternoon.

Things kicked off with mimosas and mingling, then a fabulous spread of food - everything from chicken salad crossiants, pasta salad, stuffed mushrooms, veggies and homemade mints. The weather was gorgeous, a sunny day but not too hot. The company was wonderful - grandma, mom, aunts and cousins, friends from various times throughout my life, & several soon-to-be in laws.

I couldn't ask for a better group of women in my life. It was quite a special day for me, several times I would glance at different groups of guests and feel so blessed to know each of them & have them in my life. I can't wait to share the big day with everyone.

Enjoy a few pictures from the day:
