Bridal shower invitations

The climbing roses on the south wall open that week. Flat shoes for the lawn.

The roses will be at their peak.

Wear a little blue, and bring one blue thing she can borrow.

For Mara Sundquist: a waffle bar and one very short toast.

We have the back room until noon. The pastries are on her aunts.

Coffee and bagels first, then cake. Rania & Dana are hosting.

Hats encouraged. The scones come with clotted cream and a little gossip.

Bring your best story about the bride.

Aunt Rosamund is finally using the good china.

Pinot from her year in Beaune.

Small plates in the gallery once the doors close.

Save the bow from your gift. Every one goes into her rehearsal bouquet.

Golden hour on the patio, tacos after.

Build a posy at the long table. Hers is made from the leftovers.

Wear linen. Stay for the sunset over the orchard.

Bikes optional. Snacks required.

Bring a kitchen favorite and the recipe you make with it. We’re filling her recipe box.
