It was a lot of fun. About 20 dressed up gals showed up. It didn't start too smoothly since this is like the first time everyone decides to come to my house on time and I definitely was not ready. I made my first guest act as the host until I finished getting primped. Then I spent like half an hour trying to figure out where I placed the game prizes. I was so frustrated with myself I almost started crying. 
However, it was a blast! The best part was seeing my friend so happy and grateful. If there were more hours in the day I'd take up party planning as a new hobby. I have a lot of fun attempting to get creative.
It was heartwarming that some people couldn't make it but still wanted to contribute in some way. My best friend Angela who couldn't be there made these candy-stuffed bridal gown favors. She came over early in the morning with the supplies. Another person sent over some trays of food. Oh and the girls got pretty creative with the food. Suzy made this french toast casserole that was to die for.
I was so excited that we came up with an idea to finally make use of those disposable champagne glasses that involved PINK chocolate covered goodies. Me and my sister made these the night before. Not only does it look pretty, but it actually tasted really good.
If you need a great bridal shower (or other gathering) game idea, the purse scavenger hunt was actually really fun. My list included things like a 1979 penny, socks, a baby picture, and a Victoria's Secret Angel Card. The winner found 9 out of 15 items in her purse.
It was between a bridal sash, a tiara, or a veil. We went with the veil. She said she would keep it on her bedroom dresser forever.

so in other words, you are qualified enough to be a party planner. Maybe you should try organising weddings as an upstep ;)
Girl, you are AMAZIN! So, SO cute!
Uqbaaaalik! ;)
Oh, what you did was so sweet. I'm sure your friend will be eternally grateful.
That was totally fun!
I loved the pinkish stuff :)
Hamza, wedding organizing would be more than just a hobby....that's like a full-time career and a half. I don't know how people do it.
Kinzi....awwwwwwwwwww thanks :) I'm glad you liked my ideas
Karmi, yea she sent me a really heartfelt email afterwards and I can tell she was really happy
His, thanks....I was going for either a pink or silvery theme and the silver theme would just be harder to pull off.
ah for a minute i thought it was your bridal shower ...then i thought dah dummy no one hosts their own showers....haha i need more sleep...u had lots of cute stuff...wtg....
I love the dipped goodies in the glasses. Great idea.
I love the pink theme you have going on there!
I love the strawberries!
Amazing arrangements. My sister is also going to have a baby. Time literally flies fast. It seems like she just got married in one of the wedding venues Los Angeles and I decorated the place but in real it has been two years and she is going to have a lovely baby girl. I am again looking for ideas for decorating the space.
