Two bridal showers in one weekend. And five weeks from now we'll have two weddings on the same weekend. Both daughters of good friends, and young friends of mine as well. Both young ladies went with me on mission trips to Romanian orphanages and now they are all grown up.
The first shower had a fun black and white and yellow theme...and I loved how
the bride, unknowingly, dressed in black and white.
And that my gift was also wrapped in black and white. Smile!
Though both showers had a common theme of cucumber sandwiches, fruit and
OF COURSE cupcakes, the second shower was all about tea!
Such gorgeous teacups collected from all over the world and a delicious array of hot teas.
Very cool. (well yes, hot tea isn't bad at all on a warm day, especially if you are in AC)!
I wish both young women the very best as they venture forth into the wonderful world of married life!
Please visit Mary's Little Red House to see more mosaics!
Showers--for brides or babies--are so much fun. After 30+ years of marriage, I'm ready for a shower myself.
ReplyDeleteI love the mixture of tea cups and plates!
Best,
Bonnie
Those both look like they were lovely showers. Nice mosaics!

Hi Podso
ReplyDeleteI haven't been to a shower in ages, interesting to see the two you attended. I like themes so enjoyed the black and white but of course loved the one with tea and cupcakes.

ReplyDeleteBoth of those showers looked beautiful. I love a shower - such a happy occasion!
ReplyDeleteHello Podso! I discovered your blog from Mary's Mosaic Monday party. I enjoyed your short but very beautiful post. I love the themes for the two bridal party. Though if I were to choose, I love the black and white theme because it's so classic and elegant. I hope we could know each other better by following each others blogs. :)
ReplyDeleteI have never been to a Bridal Shower as it isn't something we have in the UK!!. Yours look great and the love the black, white and yellow colour scheme.
ReplyDeleteTea ( hot) is meant to be more thirst quenching and as I am sure you know us Brits drink LOTS of it!!!
Have a great week and enjoy the wedding weekend.

Shower are fun, I wish the best for your two friends. I like the black and white theme, they seem to be my favorite colors lately. Wonderful photos, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteVery lovely showers! It seems they are getting fancier these days with lot of thought in decor and dishes. I like that. :-)
ReplyDeleteBoth look like wonderful bridal showers and it must be nice to know that both young ladies you mentored will soon be married.
ReplyDeleteI also have weddings on my mind as I am planning my daughter's spring wedding :)
How beautiful and what happy times! You got some wonderful photos! ♥
ReplyDeleteHow fun! It's great that you are close enough to enjoy the showers of your two friends and to attend their weddings, too. Enjoy...
ReplyDeleteLove the black and white...
Such sweet occasions for these two young ladies and for you to share it with them. Both shower themes were lovely!
ReplyDeleteAll these parties you give/go to look so classy. Those brides are blessed to be in such good company.
ReplyDeleteFor me bridal shower is a very important moment for a bride to be's life. Though, I never been into shower parties even once, yet I am looking forward that it will come to my life soon. Hopefully, God will provide a man for me....
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I love your preparations.
