Being my first time being married, I wanted to plan a picture perfect wedding shower. I knew I needed help, so I asked my sister if she wanted to help me. She said yes and was as happy as I was. I know there is a lot that goes into planning a wedding shower and I was excited and ready to get started. This was not my first time planning a shower and I knew how great my shower would be. I didn’t have a lot of time and I knew I better get started with the planning.
My sister and I searched for a hall to rent that was big enough to accommodate all of the guests. We came across one that was real close to where I live. We then went searching on the internet for all the decorations and gifts. There were a lot of themed wedding ideas that were gorgeous. I was relieved to find the decorations and the gifts for my wedding shower and purchased all of them. I needed to find the shower favors. There was a big variety to choose from. This took some time to decide when looking at all the wonderful shower favors. When I came across a cotton handkerchief, I knew that is what I wanted my guests to get as a gift. I thought I could purchase one for me and have it on me the day I get married. I saw a dress handkerchief that was awesome. I was positive that my family and friends would like the men’s handkerchiefs. I planned to get the lace handkerchief for a shower favor for all my guests.
Everything was turning out. The hall was reserved and we bought the decorations, gifts, and wedding favors. I needed to figure out what kind of food I was going to have at my shower. I was going to have it catered, but it was way too expensive for my budget. I looked through all my recipes and found some great dishes that I and my sister could make in no time. We placed the order for the cake at a bakery near us. All the planning was finished. I picked out these gorgeous invitations and mailed them. Now it was a waiting game, waiting for the day of the shower.
The day finally arrived and we went to hall to set up the shower. We had the hall decorated in no time. As soon as we finished, we were amazed how great the room looked. I even took pictures to remember how it looked. We decorated the tables with a centerpiece and put the cake on the food table. Each setting had a cotton handkerchief. The minute you saw the room, you would say how beautiful it looked.
My guests finally arrived and we all had such a great time. My guests enjoyed each other’s company. We enjoyed the games and feasted on some good food. I could hear my guests say how much they loved the handkerchief. It was amazing to see how many gifts I did get. The shower was coming to a end and I wanted it not to end, because we were all having a good time.
When all my guests were leaving, they all thanked me for such a good time and especially the handkerchief. I was so happy that I picked the handkerchief for my wedding favors. This day turned out so good and will be remembered for a life time. I am so glad that my sister was there to plan the shower with me. She really touched my heart during this. That is the reason she is my maid of honor.
