You ladies are always a great help in figuring things out. I'm hosting a bridal shower for my sister on Sunday afternoon. We're having it at my mom's house. The only theme I have going is that I'm trying to do everything in pink.
How does this menu sound? Is this enough?
Mimosa bar and wine bar (champagne and white wine) OJ, Mango Juice, Blueberry Lemonade and Cranberry Juice, strawberries, blueberries, peach slices and raspberries.
Water and a variety of sodas
Assorted wraps (I ordered a small tray from a local grocery store).
Turkey and avocado sandwiches on fococia bread
Chicken Salad (I'm looking for a recipe and I'm wondering if I should serve it in a little cups with lettuce or on white bread as finger sandwiches)
Strawberry Salad (mixed greens, strawberries, red onion, feta and a poppy seed dressing on the side) I am putting these in the clear cocktail Chinette cups.
Fruit and cheese tray with crackers
Baked Brie - one of the bride's maids is bringing
Pesto shrimp served cold (or should I do a mix of hot appetizers I can get from Costco?)
For dessert we have Amaretto cheesecake, brownie bites and little cupcakes.
For favors I did little white bags filled with a variety of Hershey kisses. The bags are rolled down and then tied with pink ribbon.
Games -
Who Said This - I read questions the bride and groom answered and then the guests have to guess who said it. I made mustaches and lips on sticks for them to hold up to show their guess. The bride's maids will keep score.
Dress the bride - three teams get tissue paper, toilet paper, white garbage bags and tape to dress the smallest person on their team like a bride.
I need one more quick game to play when everyone gets there.
What do you think? Did I forget anything? We'll of course have time for the bride to open gifts and for my mom to offer her a toast.
