Office Hours with Professor Jen {San Diego}

The bridal shower for Jen Shin (a high school english teacher) was one of the cutest bridal showers I had ever been to.... incorporating her love for literature, tea, anthropologie, handmade decorations and good friends, the bridesmaids brewed the perfect blend for a lovely afternoon.

The invitation...later was inspiration for their wedding programs.

An A+ in putting together the perfect tablescape

The bridesmaids were fearful of bad weather after having storms ALL WEEK. It cleared up perfectly.

Ashley's Bridal Shower // 4S Ranch

Ash is getting married in 2 weekends (!!) and she had a lovely bridal shower by her creative bridesmaids. Of all the showers I've ever been to, this hands down was my favorite. The M-O-H had homemade shabby-chic//country kitchen/ down to the last detail. I wanted to take pictures of everything because it was so...pretty. :)

Congratulations Ashley...you're going to make a wonderful wife!

Handmade, of course. :)

The beautiful bride-to-be

Proof that I was there. :)
