To Have and to Hold ~
Love those words!
In this season of bridal showers
and weddings
there isn’t anything better than helping friends and family
with planning their events!
Just a little party ~
Just a little bridal shower tea
through the internet
for my future
daughter-in-love…
When you plan your bridal shower,
send out invitations at least a month in advance
and a “save the date” for the wedding date
even further out
so none of the party or guests
gets caught unaware.
🙂
When it is time for the bridal shower,
dress your table in lovely lace
and set out your finest china
in pretty spring colors.
Have a tea light candle or two
along with a festive bouquet
in the bride’s favorite colors.
One thing I really wanted to do especially
was use monogrammed silverware.
For my children when they were young,
I found spoons that had their initials
on the handles.
We always used these as their ice cream spoons;
however, I always had
an ulterior motive
{yep, it’t true}
and that was to use these special spoons
at a future bridal shower party…

| Love in the garden… |
Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove.
O no! it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wand’ring bark,
Whose worth’s unknown, although his height be taken.
Love’s not Time’s fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle’s compass come;
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me prov’d,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved. ~
William Shakespeare, Sonnet 116

| lavender for love ~ playing with words… |
Plan a menu and share some fond memories
of your bride with her bridesmaids
and
with those in attendance.
Bridal Shower Games
Have a party game or two, and then
when the bride~to~be opens her gifts
for all to see…
Save all the ribbons and bows,
threading them through
a paper plate creating a keepsake
“bouquet” of the day…
Happy Bridal Shower Day
to everyone
getting married this year!
