gossip girl {BRIDAL} shower
October 6, 2010 in Uncategorized
I recently hosted my best friends Bridal Shower at our house.
With both of us being fans of the famous tv Series – Gossip Girl – the concept fell rather nicely into place.
I began with the ‘invitations’ which were text messages to all the guests, in true Gossip Girl style.
Of course, my name wasnt revealed until the very end, and guests were still left wondering who I really was!
I put together little goodie bags for the guests, which included a gorgeous cupcake (sadly macaroons weren’t available!) from Sadiyah from Vanilla Bakery, a recent Glamour magazine, samples from Clarins and Chane, a head band (All hail Blair Waldorf!) and little pink and white almonds in a ‘wedding dress’ paper box. The ladies were delighted at their little treats!
The backdrop to my event was traditional black and white Chanel-inspired, offset by fushia and purple flowers. Guests were offered teas and coffee inside, while mocktails were being served outside in the garden.
Catering was provided by Salehs Bakery in Mayfair. Ayub created mini’s of all our favourite desserts and accented with the colours i had provided. There was also a selection of savoury finger foods for guests who preferred something salty to offset all that sugar!
Entertainment was provided by Jessica from It’s a Date Special Events Planner, she may be contacted on (072) 984 7025.
