A DIY Bridal Shower Brunch

This past weekend, I had the honor of throwing my sister a beautiful bridal shower. I had been planning this for a few months, buying all the decorations, even bringing one whole suitcase home back in June full of nothing but decor items.

This shower would not have been possible without the help of my family. My mother, aunts, cousins and grandma helped to execute this amazing shower. From the decorations to the food, it wouldn't have been possible without them. 

But enough babbling, you're really here for the photos anyway. 

These are the invites and I really love them! I designed it, my brother created it, I had them printed, Nick cut them out, and I mailed them. Team effort!! 

I made her a cute little burlap banner

These bridal shower favors were a hit! So many people told me they thought it was the best idea ever!! (I mean, duh! Who doesn't love wine?)

Who doesn't love brunch? We decided to go with brunch foods, complete with a mimosa bar and it's safe to say that everyone loved it!!!

Donut holes on a stick, anyone??? 

No brunch is complete without your aunts' breakfast casseroles!!

Pancake dippers, cute and delicious!! 

The star of the show, The Mimosa Bar

My little sister is getting married. If that doesn't make you feel old, nothing else will.

My best friends came as well and it was an added treat getting to spend time with them.

Leah got some pretty awesome gifts and I'd like to steal that picnic basket!!!

I loved throwing this shower and am already looking forward to the next time I can have a mimosa bar!!!
