Baby Girl Tuck's Shower at Gather NC

If you follow me on Instagram, you'll know that I BLEW UP your feed a week or so ago with photos from my baby shower in Cary, North Carolina, at THE cutest little shop called Gather. I loved this day. Washington-DC-babyshower-Gather_0014

I wanted to brag on my incredible friends who threw this shower: Nicole and Mary couldn't have made it more perfect or more my style. Delicious food and drink & gorgeous favors and flowers set to the most adorable backdrop of a shop you ever did see! I mean, come on... succulents, mason jars, products featured from local artists... it was truly the most perfect gathering. : ) And I was SO happy to see the friends who could make it to the shower. I hadn't seen some of them in three years, so it was wonderful being able to catch up. Thanks for coming and bringing such awesome handmade gifts, y'all!

ALL of the food was made by Mary and Nicole, and the strawberry doughnuts and Nutella cheesecakes were among the favorites!

Mary crafted these flower vases etched with girls' initials who attended the shower via a tutorial from The Beautiful Mess. I was so delighted; they made a beautiful centerpiece.
