* Eat, Pray, Love

Posted on September 30th, 2010 by Kate. Filed under bridal shower.


Have you seen the movie yet?  I haven’t, but I loooved the book.  The ultra-fabulous creator of the blog City of Dionne thought this would make a gorgeous party theme, and she went to it.  I love this concept as a shower for the jet-setting, yogini, or adventurous bride.  Check out the full feature here- including menu inspirations and more luxurious decor!

And what could be more fitting… the author of the book, Elizabeth Gilbert, has a new book out about marriage called Committed.  I’ve heard good things…

See the rest of the Eat, Pray, Love-inspired shower.
