WEDDING BLOG

Being a maid of honor is a big responsibility, often with a long to-do list! If your chosen gal could use a little inspiration and a friendly helping hand with bridal shower planning, point her in the direction of The Hostess with the Mostess to check out their section on bridal shower themes. Each one comes complete with an image gallery, DIY instructions, recipes and other fun ideas to put together a fabulous party with ease! Here are a few of my favorites…

A lavender themed bridal shower brunch, with lavender, lilac and lime colored decor and scented soaps to send home with the guests…

Congratulations to the three winners in our Southern Weddings magazine give-away! Heather, Sylvia and Cecilia you’ll soon be receiving your shiny new issues in the mail. Thank you so much to all who participated, we loved reading about what you are most looking forward to on your wedding days! Here’s a peek at what our winning readers had to say…

Heather- Of course I’m looking forward to marrying my best friend and partner in crime. But I’m also looking forward to sharing our marriage with all of our family and friends. I’m hoping they will truly be able to experience who we are as a couple through all the details (big and small) of our wedding.

Sylvia- I am most looking forward to the moment that we leave the reception. Then we will be able to revel in our newly married status and still be glowing from the hours spent celebrating with all of those that we love.

Cecilia- I’m looking forward to our wedding day, to see all our plans fulfilled and to be able to share it with our families and friends.
