dress from barefoot contessa // one of a kind fascinator from posh veils // vintage heels // ring from h&m // my nana’s teacup
let me tell you now, that i love love love everything british! and though i’m sad that my best friend brandi is moving to the uk to live the dream and marry an english man, i am so excited for an excuse to cross the pond! so, what better bridal shower theme than an english tea party?! complete with fascinators, teacups, and cucumber sandwiches! put on by her mom and sister, they did such a fantastic job. her mom even made a cake based on one seen on pinterest (and it was deeeelicious!)
unfortunately i’m unable to attend their wedding, but wanted to say that i’m wishing the beautiful bride to be and her fiance lots of love and all the best on the big day!
p.s. aren’t you obsessed with brandi’s bridal shoes?! the prettiest shade of coral and love the bow detail!
That's what we did for my cousin's bridal shower last year! Fascinators, Pipa and Kate dresses and all! 🙂
You look fabulous! Purple is my favourite! 🙂

Wow! Were you one of the planners for this shower? You should start your own business Alicia….everytime they look amazing.
Ohh I'd love to take credit for this one, but I was just a guest 🙂 Will pass that along to the event planners though, they'll love to hear it!
Wow beautiful photos! Those bridal shoes are GORGEOUS!

Bridal showers are so much fun and English themed showers are just too cute to handle. You're right her shows are pretty stinking amazing. Love your fascinator by the way.
I LOVE the fascinators! 🙂

Your are loveliness personified, missy. That purple dress is just perfect on you, and I never get tired of fascinators. Ever 🙂 This looks like it was an absolutely smashing (to borrow the British turn of phrase) event. And that cake! Oi. I may have drooled a little on my keyboard 😉

What a fun theme! And you dressed the party perfectly 🙂 I'm co-hosting my SIL's high tea bridal shower this weekend, hopefully it'll be just as posh as the shower you attended!

What a cute idea for a wedding shower! Love the teacups. Even though I don't drink tea I would just so I could use one of those cups! ; )
That is such a great idea for a wedding shower. I'm definitely going to file that away in my brain for possible future use ^_^.
YOUR dress looks great! I love love love the cut of the neckline and the chiffon that hangs down… would you call that a ruffle? I wouldn't, but I can't think of the right term right now. Anyway, great look!

Alicia – you look AMAZING. You are totally rocking that dress.
Ah I love the fascinator, so pretty Alicia! And that dress… that must be the perfect shade of purple I've seen around lately. It looks like a wonderful bridal shower, I am sure the cake was delicious (it certainly looks yummy!) 🙂
