Bagged the Big One Wedding Shower

This little spurt of creativity was a fun deviation from my normal pursuits. One of Becky's (my daughter) friends eloped (kind of) and we wanted to give them a nice shower. Spencer is a girl who is, by nature, wonderfully unique and non-traditional. She loves zebra print and her favorite color is green. So this was the decoration scheme we came up with.

The topiaries were inspired by Pinterest but theirs used beautiful fresh flowers. I opted for tissue paper in lieu of black, green and white flowers (can't think of black or green flowers). The zebra print on the table is an inexpensive fleece throw that we gave to the bride after the shower.

The amazingly cute zebra print cake was made by my incredibly talented friend, Cathy Maples. Oh, and the gift table was covered in the cheapo green party table cloth and had two diamonds of zebra wrapping paper (laminated) in the center made by the shower mastermind and master organizer Belinda Anderson. I didn't get a picture if it, unfortunately.

We were thinking of a theme title like "Welcome to the wilds of marriage" or "stop the hunt. You've bagged the big one" or something like that but we gave up a title and just went with the theme.

Many happy years, Spencer and Brandon!
