PIP: My Surprise Bridal Shower (AW)

So I was right!  My bridal shower was this Saturday and it was great!  I had so much fun and this was the first time I had all of my bridesmaids in one place.  We had a private room at this really neat restaurant.  The room was all white and they lit up the walls in pink and had pink and green table clothes and napkins and tons of flowers and balloons.  Everything turned out amazingly and even though I had figured some of it out, the location, guests included and all of the details were still a surprise to me.

Here is a picture of my mom (left), me (wearing my ribbon bonnet), and FMIL (right):

Me with all of my BMs:

And for a bonus, feel free to view this long, embarrassing video of me being given lots of panties (the poem was really cute and if anyone is interested, I have a copy of it) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWC690G6HbE Smile

  • Great video.  We did that for FI's cousin's bachelorette last summer (she was a close friend of mine that actually introduced us). 

  • I'd have a hard core stare in the opposite direction of my FILs while that was happening. And your mom was adorable with the granny panties.

    <div>LOL!  They found it off the internet.  Usually my family does one with candles ... so I was expecting that one.  They definitely caught me off guard with the panties.  There is also a poem that uses wine.</div><div>

  • Dude, I want the wine poem shower. That would be awesome.

    We did the panty thing to one of my friends that married my cousin last year. It was hilarious. Glad you had a good time!

    Is the ribbon bonnet made from the ribbons on your gifts? I've never seen that take on it. Very cute though!
