    Ladies I need your help...

    I will be involved in planning my bridal shower, I won't be the one planning it but I will be involved as to what/where I would like to have, who I want to have there, etc... My MOHs will be taking care of the rest. So I've been thinking of doing a French/Paris themed bridal shower. I don't even know where to start haha... HELP!

    Watch the movie "Bridesmaids" & get one of those giant cookies, and give out puppies as favors! 

    I keed, I keed :P

    I like a cafe theme- coffee, pastries, quiche, brie, French bread... also have some French music playing in the background.  Of course, you MUST have some French wine!

    Oooh... there's potential for amazing food with a French theme! Fondue, crepes, macarons... etc! You could go with a sort of Laduree Bakery color scheme (soft mint green, blush pink, etc). See Mrs. Perfume's wedding for more details. Or, you could find a wire Eiffel Tower as a sort of centerpiece and have everyone wear a beret.

    Crepes for sure! If it were me I would have some escargot served but then I know not everyone likes them.. more for me!

    What about going with a period in time? Like the 20s, or la belle epoque or something else? That would give your more guidance. 

    I would do tables and tables of cheese!! The Cheese Boutique is my favourite place to get cheese, they're very knowledgable!
