Esther's Bridal Shower

I traveled back to Phoenix this past weekend to help throw a bridal shower for my friend Esther (see her engagement party and invitations). The other bridesmaids and I have spent the past few months planning, prepping, and eagerly anticipating this special day. We were so happy to have this opportunity to shower Esther with love and blessings as her wedding day soon approaches!

The theme for the shower was floral garden/picnic with a touch of vintage. The main colors were green and purple with accents of yellow. Esther's big on being green, so we tried very hard to be eco-friendly in as many aspects of the shower as possible.

Our lovely bride-to-be, Esther
