| Ms. Cortney the Bride-to-Be, isn't she beautiful!?! |
4.24.12
My younger sister Cortney is getting married June 30th, holy cow, can't believe it's almost two months away, man time is flying! Cortney is the complete opposite of me in every way you can imagine, sometimes I wish I could be as laid back as she is.. anywho she's not a a big fan of planning things you could say so I've gotten the opportunity to help a lot with her wedding, which in all honesty has been more fun than planning my own, I'm so much more LESS stressed out that it's not my own.
I was especially excited to plan her shower, I've been envisioning it for months now! This past Saturday, 4/21 we hosted her Bridal Shower at my Mom's house- the theme was Cupcakes & Cocktails, which I was beyond excited for. My great friend Tessa designed the invites and table cards for me, all of which turned out perfect.
Saturday couldn't have been a more perfect day, the shower started at 7:00pm, there was not an ounce of wind (very rare in KS) and we all sat around in my parents backyard where we had tiki torches and a fire pit going when it started to get a bit chilly.

| Can of Dates- As each guest arrived they were to fill out a "Date Card" with a date idea for Cortney and David to use throughout their marriage, got to keep that spark alive! |
 |
| Main food table filled with delicous home made desserts by my Mom, Grandma, and Me! |

| Tissue Pom Centerpieces. Found these candlestick holders at Goodwill and spraypainted them. BUT let me tell you, these are not a quick project...hours and hours were spent on these darn things, but turned out cute huh?! |

| Pink Champagne (High Heel) Cupcakes. These were a hit, and they're just so darn cute! |
