Okay, so I know I'm the bride and I really shouldn't even be thinking about a shower, but I just can't help myself! We've found some wonderful inspiration around the web and I just HAVE to share.

I'm totally in love with this Breakfast at Tiffany's themed shower we found over at Eat Drink Pretty. Forget the fact that I'm totally obsessed with anything Audrey Hepburn and have read Truman Capote's book at least a dozen times--this party has an elegant, classic design, which is soo perfect for a bridal shower AND it's got the sparkle decor only Tiffany's could inspire!

The eye candy continues with this GORGEOUS vintage carnival design from Celebrations at Home.  Do I even need to go on about these darling pinwheels? I think not...and check out those menu cards...LOVE!

Seasonal bridal showers are some of our favorite and we love this
couple's shower from Frilly Milly. It's certainly not the traditional girlie look, but it's absolutely perfect for bringing the guys along to the party without sacrificing the style! The best part? This party captures both the bride- and groom-to-be!

A photo booth was set up for the guests to snap pics with props...here's a shot of the bride- and groom-to-be! Congrats!!

So I'm starting to get to the place now where not only are my friends getting married, but they're also having babies. I love a good bridal shower, who doesn't love looking at shiny new tabletop appliances, but at the baby shower, everything is just so cute. It is. Plus, there are just so many angles you can take for a baby shower. This week we're highlighting some of our favorites designs and ideas from the best baby bloggers around.

First up...

This seriously adorable vintage theme shower from Jen Loves Kev. The Dill Relish, the Candy Jars, The pin wheels.... The tug of war. Please. I cannot get enough. How cute is cute? But I think my ultimate favorite part, is those pretty little dresses strung up for all to see. Come on... Love it.

Now, I've said this before. Everyone hates on carnations. The thing with carnations though is that they're by far the easiest flower to work with in centerpieces, AND in bulk they look AMAZING. SO we love those so much we couldn't believe this when we came across the paper version on Pepper Design Blog. Super easy, and pretty to boot!

And finally... some more inspiration from the ultimate Hostess with the Mostess. I know, it's bridal.... but come on. If this isn't baby inspiration I don't know what is. You could easily adopt this sweet box cake by using solid color boxes, or mixing and matching patterns like polka dots and strips for a fun, and bright colored baby shower.

Happy Friday!
