We love planning a great party and Parker’s bridal shower was just that! We had the pleasure of working with Shea, Parker’s sister-in-law, who hosted the event. Shea was focused on making the party perfect for the Bride-to-Be, with lots of fun, bright colors and a bold design.

The Athletic Club of Columbus was the perfect place to host, as the beautiful chandeliers add such character! The vibrant colors of fuchsia and mango fit the upbeat and fun atmosphere, while black and white details completed the design. Shea brought in family heirlooms, with her mother’s collection of milk glass vases, which adorned every table. Touches of gold were used to accent and add a little sparkle, because who doesn’t love a little sparkle!? The mimosa bar kicked the party off, while the chef displayed various small bites, from the custom menu. To top it all off, the dessert table was filled with cupcakes from A Cake for Leroy and macaroons from Pistacia Vera.

Fun was had by all, especially when Shea and Parker’s friend, Meredith, acted out the “Love Quote” game, to pay attribute to Parker’s affection for a good love story! Dean, Parker’s fiancé, arrived in style, with a bouquet of flowers, to surprise his future bride.

Parker’s family and friends came in from near and far, with a few surprise guests, from Texas. It was beautiful to see everyone come together to share many warm hugs, laughs and love for Parker and Dean!
