When in the party planning stages for my girl Desiree’s bridal shower (a big part of the bridesmaid duties, in my opinion), I had a hard time initially coming up with a theme. She’s a Southern girl, but wasn’t into the trendy southern wedding vibe (“No chalkboards, no mason jars” is a direct quote).
But then it dawned on me – something we both loved was Broadway. A classy, New York City themed bridal shower seemed right up her alley.
From then on, I put my Pinterest-obsession to good use and found all kinds of NYC inspiration for a lovely bridal shower. With some major assistance from the bridesmaids, I think we put together some pretty gorgeous decor, and threw her a memorable shower.
And this was how the tables cape turned out. I loved it. I really think it came together so well. And thanks to our lovely guests, we had a ton of food too!
I was inspired by a pin to do the skyline on black foam board with a silver Sharpie – but all credit goes to our friend Judith for bringing it to life!
I used a lot of decor items I already had. So, I slipped in some southern burlap. Shhhh!
One of the resources below shared the idea to give out costume jewelry as a favor, and we loved the idea.
Inspired by the Tiffany’s logo, I thought it would be fun to have a poster we could all sign to remind her of the people who attended. I created a simple design on Canva, with Desiree’s name instead, and had it printed on a poster via Staples.
