bridal showers

It’s a tight-knit group of event and wedding vendors in Washington, DC. When Joanie Rylander, of Well Dunn Catering, got engaged they threw her a Farmer’s Market inspired bridal luncheon! Janice of Bellwether Events and Kelley of Kelley Cannon Events designed and hosted the most beautiful Sunday afternoon feast.

Decked with unique place cards made out of veggies, they created a gorgeous tablescape with lush autumnal flowers, the coolest linen we ever did see, and an eclectic place setting. Lunch was fresh from the farmer’s market and served family style. Following the meal was dessert; this was a buffet of mini pies! How fun!For party favors, they offered an entire bar filled with every type of bread you could think of! First of all, this is brilliant. Second of all, you know we’re real suckers for edible favors. It was a casual Sunday gathering to honor a dear friend, and enjoy each other’s company. Thank you to Bellwether Events for sharing this fresh food inspired bridal shower.
