So on the day of her bridal shower in her own backyard, the tables and chairs were adorned with Tiffany blue covers  and chair ties, tables decorated in pearls, the famous black sunglasses, gift boxes and Hepburn photos.

Music from the soundtrack of the movie played in the background as she opened her gifts. Guests dined on a variety of delicious muffins, bagels with cream cheeses, fruits, spinach salad,(the bride’s favorite) pasta salad and an array of quiches. Mimosas were served as were cupcakes decorated with the Tiffany colors and Audrey’s picture.

Guests took home a cookie favor of the little black dress.  It was a glorious day, great weather, friends and family and a very excited bride to be.The shower was fantastic, Darling.
The darling Mother of the Bride,

So she asked me if she could have my dress and make the alterations needed to modernize it in to a shorter version. I said yes to the dress and on my last visit in NYC we had a seamstress appointment with a former co-worker. It surely did my heart good to see her standing in front of me wearing my wedding dress as I had done 35 years ago.

Nowadays it seems on trend to change from your wedding gown in to  a more casual version for later at the reception –and this is her plan. Within a few minutes there was a snip snip here, a sash, and tuck there and my wedding gown  transformed in to a beautiful cocktail dress. I cant wait to see the final transformation on her wedding day.
