12 more days until my bridal tea party

i can hardly wait i am so excited. i have been running around like a mad man making sure my house is clean. it was originally at a pals casa and had to move as her landlord decided he need to store his massive motorcycles in the backyard. it was kind of a bummer until we realized that it might be easier for the venue to just move to my house. granted there is no huge backyard filled with plants but i do have a roof deck that has a beautiful skyline and my sweet brother is bringing up his hammock stand so my lovely ladies and i can lounge in style.

and if all of that was not enough i am excited to have my mom here in town for the whole thing!!

hats for the bridal luncheon

so for the bridal luncheon i was hoping the theme would be hats, pearls and gloves. now since we live in NYC this could mean some fun fashion accessories. i have been looking for hats to wear as i have the pearls and came across these.. i can't for the life of me decided which one i like better.



this last one my pal Shoshana picked up in a sweet pink to wear to the shower.
so lovely, via the pixie market.

Bridal Luncheon

I have always loved tea and the thought of having a tea party for my bridal shower was even better. I decided to change the name from shower to luncheon so it would feel a bit more special and really exude the idea of a sweet afternoon lunch with my favorite ladies.
Apparently i am not alone in thinking this as Martha Stewart just came up with bridal tea showers!

Bridal Luncheon

These are so lovely. I was trying to think of something really awesome to give to my ladies at the bridal luncheon, and i think this just takes the cake! Who doesn't like a nice bar soap. Idea from Layer Cake.
