Oh Baby…A Shower For E | Milwaukee Event Photography

A few weeks ago,  I had the pleasure of hosting a baby shower for my dear friend, Elizabeth.  I definitely can’t take all the credit here, because I had tons of help from the other hostesses, Tosha and Jenna. I started by designing the invitations and then we decided on a theme of  “all things small.” The theme was woven throughout the shower with decor, such as tiny vintage baby blocks, a mini suitcase, used to corral notes from shower guests, and the tiny baby booties, displayed underneath a glass domed pedestal.  The theme was also intertwined throughout the decor with quotes, such as the framed print that says “Sometimes the littlest things take up the most room in your heart” and the words, “Find beauty in small things,” which could be seen dangling from mini-clothespins inside a vintage frame. Photos of the guest of honor as a baby and the ultrasound picture of her baby also lingered nearby. Additionally, we used the “small” theme as a guide for our menu choices, which included bite-sized appetizers and petite brownie bites. Guests sipped on mimosas during the shower and as the festivities began to wind down, were sent on their way with small mason jars filled with a delicious trail mix. The guest of honor, Elizabeth, and I have been best friends for half our lives and have shared so many incredible memories of life’s special moments…so it was an honor and a pleasure to be a part of this day and host this shower for my dear friend.  I absolutely cannot wait for her next momentous milestone….when she meets her new little man.  He should be arriving at any moment…and I am dying to meet him too!
