A Gourmet Shower

February 18th, 2008 @ 4:22 pm by Mrs. Penguin

My mom received my shower invitation today!  ITS ONNNN!  My bridesmaids ran a few themes by me, including “stock the kitchen,” “honeymoon wear,” and “lingerie,” and being the little piggy that I am, I loved the “gourmet food and wine” theme the best!  Check out how cool they are, I’m digging the natural kraft stock that the cards are printed on:

Included in the invitation was this write in recipe card, where guests will be able to share their favorite gourmet recipe with me. Yummy Nummy.

The invitations, with the help of my MOH, were designed by her good friends at Sincerely Invites.What is/was your shower theme? Do share!

These are so cool!

My boss threw us a couples shower and invited managers and their spouses/girlfriends. It was nice, and I won’t deny that we had fun opening up all those gifts and hanging out outside of work, but it seemed so formal for the kind laid-back wedding we were having. I was nervous the entire time too, and it showed. I never sat so straight in my entire life.

Do you know where they purchased the kraft paper…we are using kraft paper for our wedding invitations and I really like the lighter tone of the one used for your shower invitations. They are adorable!!

The invites were done by a custom invitation design service, so I don’t know where the girls get their paper from :) You can feel free to check their website out and ask them, if you’d like!

Wow, those shower cards are really pretty! And that gourmet recipe request is really cute… your MOH outdid herself.

[...] she felt weird about it. But unlike me, I don’t think any of my friends are really into the whole let’s-get-creative-and-have-a-super-cute-themed-shower, you know? I feel like it would be an obligation for them, not something they’d be super excited [...]
