Party Recap...

The Little Black & White Dress
When creating the theme for this shower, I was immediately drawn to the black & white damask pattern. I think that it is so elegant and modern. I wanted to use the wedding colors but as accent colors. The wedding colors are fuchsia and turquoise, so we sprinkled those colors throughout.
The tables were setup with black floor length tablecloths topped with black & white damask runners that my mom had made. We were inspired by the Gossip Girl Shower featured on the HWTM and created our own version of those fabulous ruffled placemats. My mom made these using layers and layers of fuchsia ribbon. They were a big hit and I think that they came out great! The fuchsia really popped against the black and white. My mom is my secret weapon. We placed a silver charger on top along with a damask plate and napkin.
