Beachy & Blissful Bridal {Couples} Shower

Happy Wednesday!!

Today I'm linking up to showcase some of
my ideas for my sister's bridal shower.

My sister wants a couples shower;
we had one before Joe and I got married.
It was low key, picnic-esque foods,
outside, warmer weather, cold drinks...
I loved everything about our shower!
I want to make hers just as special

and since she's getting married on St. Thomas,

I have been researching tons of ways to 

bring the beach up here to a little park in New York.

I am envisioning lots of blues and browns 

{her wedding colors}

fresh green plants

sand

sea shells

twinkle white lights

mimosas & fun cocktail drinks

and lots of good tasting food!

 So today's pins?

I am a bit intimidated by this, but I think it's soooo cute.

Any takers?

I know it will be here soon, 

so we are getting a move on and starting to assemble things this week! 

She's marrying into an Italian family too, 

so amongst all of us, we have some fabulous food to top it off!
Ok, I know a lot of you are super creative, crafty, and organized.
What else can you think of for this beach theme?
I want it to be unique and meaningful,
especially since a lot of the guests will not be attending
the actual wedding, I feel the a bit of pressure in making
this day super special for my little sister, Brianna and her fiance, Eric.
Ideas??
