Remember last week when I was baking for a wedding shower?? Well, good….it went off without a hitch last Saturday and I think that the bride felt very showered with love by her friends and family! We had a great time planning it for sure. It was everything a wedding shower should be - fun, girly, whimsical and pretty. Our theme was Morning Mimosas and we really ran with it…using pink, orange and yellow as our colors. The decor was airy and fun – think tissue paper pompoms, paper flowers, mason jars, etc. I’ll just have to let you see for yourself!
