megbrifallwedding's Chocolate wedding

This past weekend the bridal party (of my best friends wedding taking place this July 2008) held a shower for Alissa.

We did a Hawaiian Theme - I've included some pics!

Guest were greeted at the door and given a lei - the bride which I kept busy all day had to drive around town with her lei on - and she thought that was bad enough until we gave her the coconut cups, head band and wrist bands.

Hawaiian music was played in the background!

We had Pina Coladas & Margs and tons of food included kabobs, wraps, fruit and a chocolate fountain.

We played the following games:

- Contest for who came in the best Hawaiian outfit - her grandmother-in-law to be won with her circa 1970s dress from Hawaii which she has kept in her bsmt
- Hula Hoop contest (the bride was a champion - 17 minutes!)
- Quiz the Bride - answering Trivia questions with cards (A-D) from who is her fav band, what's her fav food, etc. and tie breaker question of how much did she weigh when she was born (I won - or course!)
- Toilet paper bridal dresses

We then opened gifts (which were mostly beach inspired)

And gave everyone prizes for the games and gift bags to go home with.

I think it was simple, not too expensive and everyone had a great time :)
