April Showers...

My bridal shower isn't taking place in April, but my invite did arrive. It was kind of surreal to receive it in the mail. I can't really explain it... almost like I've been doing all of this planning and have less than three months to go, and it's getting real all of a sudden. (The invite was from Wedding Paper Divas.)
While I was in Denver a couple of weekends ago, I picked up some cute little gifts for my shower hosts. It's amazing what you can put together at Michaels! The gifts include recipe boxes, coupon holders, shopping lists, magnets and spatulas. One set had a "when life gives you lemons" theme, and the other had a bird theme. Each cost me less than $15!


Are you giving hostess gifts for your shower? I've got a few more ideas up my sleeve, so we'll see if these are "final"!

I love Wedding Paper Divas - too cute!! And those hostess gifts are adorable. I wish I would have done something like that for my bridesmaids (they hosted my shower). I did make up for it though, by giving them really great thank you gifts for being in my wedding.

LOVE your shower invites! And your hostess gifts are super cute, too. I did potted spring plants (tulips and hyacinths) as gifts for my first shower. With another one coming, I will keep your gift ideas in mind... :)

How exciting! Once you arrive at your shower, that's when it will really start to feel like you're about to get married.

I love those hostess gifts!
