This past weekend was the bridal shower/bachelorette party. Lately, I've been obsessed with party planning so I'm glad I got to make this my first planning experience. The bridal shower was held at Woodlawn Country Club on Saturday, July 23rd at 11-1. Around 30 people came, so it was a good turn out! I love the idea of a dessert table, so I made sure to incorporate that in. Mom and I found alot of pink candy like jelly beans, marshmellows, flavored popcorn, etc. I also had seen an idea for "tips for marriage" to write them on a seashell and place them in the sand. Since Cody and Stephanie are going to the beach for the honeymoon, i thought it would be a cute idea! I also made centerpieces for the tables by placing a few flowers in some mason jars. Towards the end of the shower, Cody surprised Steph with 2 dozen roses, aw! 

Later that afternoon Stephanie, some of her friends and I headed up to Choctaw casino for the bachelorette party. Gigi had a great set up! Stephanie opened presents, then we played a "who knows Cody and Stephanie quiz" (which i got 14/15 correct!), then we swam and spent the rest of the night in the casino. Sadly, I am not good at slot machines.. 

Also, for some reason the pictures i have on my computer won't show up so It's hard to upload pictures (which is why i stole these from Stephanie's blog)
