Wedding Wednesday: Shower Recap

A reader, and dear friend of ours, recently hosted a spring bridal shower for a college friend. She held the shower at her home in Richmond and used subtle details to incorporate the light green and brown theme. She did a great job with all of the details, especially making sure that almost all of the food was able to be prepared ahead of time, freeing the hostess up to mingle instead of spending time in the kitchen! The biggest hit of the shower was the recipes that each guest brought to compile in a recipe box for the bride-to-be, including some family recipes that are favorites of the groom!
The details are below….

Phyllo cups filled with balsamic tomatoes
