Baby Shower: Tea Party Bliss

What a memorable weekend it was. On Friday night we had our maternity photo session and it was so much fun! Then Saturday some friends hosted a tea themed baby shower for me and it was beyond perfect. It was a small intimate gathering and I couldn't have been more blessed with how generous my friends and family near and far were.

Here are some of the lovely details of the affair.

Gorgeous handmade invites designed by Miss S and Miss E of Red Letter Dessein

Sweet Baby Shower Themes

I am so excited for this weekend as some of my close girlfriends are throwing me a baby shower in celebration of Miss R's soon to be arrival. It means a lot that this group of ladies have come together for me especially since my closest friends and sister are out of state and they are not able to attend.

I can't wait to show you photos and details of my baby shower next week. In the meantime, how sweet are some of these baby shower themes & details?

I love the hanging bebe letters so much that I would love to recreate the letters and hang them up in my daughter's nursery.

Nautical Cupcake Party

Nautical attire and anchors will always have a special place in my heart so how could I possibly resist these cupcakes! These would be so cute for a birthday party or for a baby boy baby shower.

Party Scene

I thought I would share with you some of the touches from my Ornament Exchange party. I had never made a flower arrangement before. It didn't turn out exactly how I pictured but it worked nonetheless. We ate lots of yummy food, had hot cocoa, reindeer slush, and some delicious peppermint fudge.
