Most people don’t know that I’m half Spanish. My mom’s side of the family, for the most part, lives in and around Albuquerque, NM. This means that for big events it is hard to get everyone to travel out to the East Coast where we live. When my sister got married, my aunt threw her a bridal shower out in New Mexico so that our extended family out there could attend without having to fly out to Florida. It was a huge hit! So when Ryan and I got engaged, she was so sweet and asked if she could do the same for us!
My aunt Genevieve is an event planner/designer and has impeccable taste. She also has a wonderful habit of going all-out for everything. She never does anything halfway. The shower she threw us was absolutely amazing! Complete with a flower crown, balloon arch, cactus cookies, and beautiful cake! I brought my camera and gave it to my sister to document the day so Ryan and I could enjoy just being the “guests”.
