I Should Have Grown Up In The 50's

Its true, I honestly believe I should have grown up in the 1950's. My favorite shows, music, and clothing have a retro, 1950's style. I have never been able to explain it. I am absolutely in love with everything from that era!

So, when it came time to cast a vision for my North Carolina bridal shower...I knew just where I wanted to take it...back to the 50's! I know you are all probably thinking "Oh, like records and stuff." Well, not exactly...my dream was to have a 50's house wife shower!

Luckily, my MOH/cousin Whitney, Aunt Tara, and Momma all agreed and jumped on board. I honestly thought they would all think I was crazy for wanted a themed bridal shower, but they seemed just as excited as I was to incorporate the time period I hold most dear!

My shower was held at the cutest coffee shop in town, Monkeez Brew. I couldn't have dreamed up a better location! It fit the theme so perfectly, and my favorite girls did an amazing job with decorating. It was more than I could have ever hoped for! A perfect day celebrating and being showered with wonderful and undeserved gifts...we are so blessed!

Thanks SO much to everyone who helped, brought us gifts, and spent their afternoon in the 50's.

Here's another few thousand words....


















Disclaimer: Unfortunately I didn't get to take pictures with every one at the shower....including my sweet, sweet Grandma! Yes, I did cry after it was all over when I realized through the hustle and bustle I didn't snag a picture with her. However, I plan to get a TONS with her on the "big day!" :)
