As the maid of honor for a friend I threw a bridal shower back in June at Sugarbaby’s Cupcake Boutique in Houston. This was THE place to hold my party – with a black and white palette the color ideas were endless.  I brainstormed themes for weeks and when i came across the cutest invites on Pear Tree I just knew it had to be kitchen/recipe themed. I scoured Pinterest for color combos.

Colors.

And you know once you are on Pinterest you are inspired by many other lovely images like these:

which turned into this:

On my wooden forks, spoons, and spatulas I printed sayings out like – “Khara & Nathan – Spoon to be wed!”, “Khara & Nathan – Together fork ever!”, & “Khara & Nathan – So flipping cute!” then tied them on with red ribbon.  I made the paper flowers following these instructions.  We had mimosas, cupcakes, and chit-chatted majority of the time.

love is sweet.

All the guests brought their favorite recipe with kitchen appliances or dinnerware to make the recipe.  The bride was in total happiness opening everything; she thought it was the perfect party for becoming a new wife!  Fun, fun times with the bestie!!
