Vicki's Supersized Bridal Shower

Before I get to the goods of this post...I just want you to know: SCHOOL'S OUT FOR SUMMER! I am ready for a break to relax, sleep in, go to the beach, blog, craft, and whatever else comes my way.

Now on to the Vicki's superzied shower (and in supersized I don't mean just a burger and fries, I mean a mega big mac, with a large fry, and gallon-sized soda from McDonald's).

Vicki, my college roommate, and I lived together for 3 years. We shared a room, toilet, and great memories at West Chester University. A couple months ago, we threw a shower for Dawn, our other college roommate (check out that here).

Vick is inviting around 250 people to her wedding so it was reasonable to have a 55 person shower to celebrate her upcoming nuptials.

The shower was held at a beautiful barn, perfect for the occasion.
The decorations were purple tissue-paper pom-poms from Martha Stewart and thanks to her aunt, each table was covered with purple and white flowers that also served as the favors.

There was enough food to feed a small army of men or a group of 55 women.
The guests helped themselves to appetizers while waiting for Vicki's arrival. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves...

Plus a veggie tray and homemade cheese dip. Did you spot the huge bowl of sangria?

I didn't get a chance to snap photos of the catered main course but it was caesar salad, pasta salad, roasted chicken, green beans, and bread.

The huge stack of presents
After 2 rounds of presents, a few fun games, eating appetizers then lunch, we were ready for dessert.
A fresh strawberry shortcake and a plate full of pastries, chocolate, and cookies.
So there you have it, a superszied shower for a girl who rightly deserved it. Vicki is one the kindest and friendliest girls you will ever meet. Can't wait for her big day.
