These are my dear, dear engaged friends Matt and Shayna. They always pretty much look this way: like they should be in a Target ad. Last weekend we threw them a 1950's swinging shower...complete with Frank Sinatra and Jell-o molds!
This girl, Courtney, the maid of honor...she really threw this shower with me. God bless her heart.
Oh, yeah, by the way, have I ever told you guys that my husband makes beer? He's one of those beer people...I couldn't care less about it...but he spent a semester in Europe in architecture school and now apparently is an expert. It's really adorable...I think he loves it when people ask him what is favorite beer is because its a really obscure one you can't get in the States that he had "in a little pub in Scotland"...yeah, uh-huh. Love you Manley. Speaking of Manley, I'll leave all of you with my FAVORITE pic of the evening:
Love love love and best wishes Shayna and Matt....may your marriage be as magical as ours has!







Happy never looked so true!
Love.

Hello, greetings from Australia. I have kept your blog link on mine, as i just love looking at your cakes. I wonder what you made for this Swell Shower?? How much fun did this party look?? Oh, so gorgeous. Love all the little touches & can't imagine how cool the wedding will be. Themed weddings are so much more fun than serious ones. Yeah!! I wish them all the best & lots of babies. Love Posie
