Beth's Bridal Shower

Here are a few images from my dear friend Beth's 1920s vintage tea bridal shower!  It was hosted by another bridesmaid (also named Beth), whose gorgeous home was the perfect setting.  Beth's mother and aunt decorated the place with tons of antique china, doilies and linens, many that belong to Beth's grandmother.  All of us bridesmaids pitched in with the food, and Beth found adorable vintage white gloves on eBay to hand out as party favors.  I thought I'd share the shower since is was completely DIY.

Look mom, I made the scones and cookies!  Aren't you proud?!

Beth's fiancee Dan did a surprise pop-in with a bouquet of red roses!

Kimberly + Paul in Berkeley, CA

KPwed_534If Kimberly and Paul's wedding had been a movie, it would've been called "The Beauty and the Comedian."  Kimberly was a perfectly gorgeous bride in her champagne dress, and Paul kept everyone laughing throughout his toast.  I can only imagine that being part of their family would be joyous and fun everyday.  Kimberly may not be the mother of Paul's children, Isabel and Jack, but seeing how much the four of them love each other was truly special. Now, I may not be much of a fancy hat person (although I did enjoying trying on hats at Saks when I was little), but I do have one classic fedora, which Adm gave to me.  I am sorry to say that my hat would have been put to shame at this wedding:  all the women wore amazing hats and fascinating fascinators.  There was truly some great style at this wedding, and Adm and I thoroughly enjoyed taking it all in.
