BACKYARD BABY SHOWER

After much ado, I am so excited to share my Los Angeles baby shower with you guys!

As soon as I found out I was pregnant I got on Pinterest and created a baby shower board because I was so excited to have a shower!  I didn’t have a bridal shower, but knew I really wanted to celebrate this little bundle of joy with my friends and family both in LA and Louisville.  I had my Los Angeles baby shower two weeks ago and it was so magical – beyond what I ever hoped for thanks to my sister, friends and Poppy Richards Events (email me if you want to contact them and I can connect you).  Every little detail was thought of and executed to a T.  Even with the 100 degree weather, I was able to celebrate with my closest friends in our new backyard.  The highlights for me were definitely the flower crown bar, where all of my guests designed their own crowns, and the DIY baby banner station, which my husband and I plan to hang in the nursery.  Special thanks to my photographer Valorie Darling for the gorgeous photos, Essie for the polishes as favors for my guests and for my super cute manicure, Pressed Juicery for the healthy green juices, Watermelon Water for the refreshing treat, Stick With Me Sweets for artisan chocolates, Go Priv for my beautiful crown braid, and last but not least, The Crown Collective, for the beautiful flower crowns.  For all of the other details find links below or leave me a comment with questions or telling me what you love best!  Thanks so much for stopping by today!
