Being my first time being married, I wanted to plan a picture perfect wedding shower. I needed help, so I asked my sister if she would like to help me plan it. She agreed and was excited as much as I was. I know there is a lot of work to be done when planning a shower and I was eager to get started. I have planned showers before and I knew my shower would turn out awesome. Time was running out and I knew I better hurry up with all the details.
Me and my sister were looking for a place to have the shower and enough space for all the guests. We came across one that was real close to where I live. We started looking on the web for decorations and gifts. We found a lot of themed wedding shower ideas that were so adorable. I finally found all my decorations and purchased all the gifts I needed for the wedding shower. It was time to find the shower favors. There was a lot to look at. This took some time to figure which one I wanted because they had so many to choose from. We saw a cotton handkerchief that was so elegant, that I decided this is what I want to give my guests for a wedding favor. I thought I could purchase one for me and have it on me the day I get married. I seen a dress handkerchief that was so beautiful. I knew right away that all my guests would love the mens handkerchiefs. I planned to get the lace handkerchief for a shower favor for all my guests.
Everything was falling into place. The hall was reserved and we bought the decorations, gifts, and wedding favors. I had to decide what type of food I was going to get for my wedding party. I was going to have it catered, but it was way too expensive for my budget. I went through my recipes and found some awesome dinners and side dishes that we could make. We placed the order for the cake at a bakery near us. All the planning was done. I found these awesome invitations and mailed them out to family and friends. Now it was a waiting game, waiting for the day of the shower.
My shower day was here and me and my sister went to the hall early to set everything up. It took us about an hour to decorate the hall. When we were done decorating the room, we couldn’t get over how awesome the room looked. I even took pictures to remember how it looked. The tables each had a centerpiece on it and the cake was put on the same table where we but the food. Each setting had a cotton handkerchief. If you were to walk in the room, you would think how gorgeous it looked.
I had such a good time with my family and friends after they arrived. We all enjoyed each other’s company. We had fun playing games and eating. I could hear my guests say how much they loved the handkerchief. It was amazing to see how many gifts I did get. I did not want my shower to end, because I had so much fun and so did my guests.
At the end of the shower and when everybody was going home, my guest told me that they really loved the handkerchief. I was so happy that I picked the handkerchief for my wedding favors. My special day turned out and will be remembered forever. I am so glad that my sister was there to plan the shower with me. She really touched my heart during this. That is the reason she is my maid of honor.
