Black & Gold Bridal Shower Decorations
To create a fun backdrop, I used a chalkboard and wrapped it with a floral balloon garland. A balloon garland is so fun and easy to make!
One of my favorite ways to display paper goods is on a serving tray. I found this tray second hand and repainted it myself.
On a separate table, we had a cute little coffee and juice bar. Thanks to my younger sisters talents, we had fancy handwritten place cards to label the food and beverages.
Cards & Gifts
In a separate area, we had a place for cards and gifts. I think gifts deserve their own table and it’s super helpful for the guests!

I created this hand lettered sign using my Tom Bow Dual Brush Pens. These pens work awesome!
Guestbook
A Bible guest book is a wonderful way for guests to sign in! Plus, the couple can read the Bible together once they are married.
Oh and yes, another succulent. If you haven’t guessed already, I’m kind of obsessed with them!

I’m so in love with this chocolate cake with whipped cream frosting. Simple, yet elegant, this cake was delicious. Adding the flowers and vines on the edges made this cake on point!
Thanks to my mom and sisters, we had a delicious spread of food! I found the place cards at Hobby Lobby, my all time favorite store.
My mom made the cutest little sandwiches. She put together ham, turkey, egg salad, & chicken salad sandwiches, each topped with cucumbers. The guests loved having so many options and all were equally delicious!
Chips are another popular party snack. One of my favorite brands is Sun Chips! These are healthy and delicious at the same time. 
Thanks for reading along! If you are planning a bridal shower in the future, I’d highly recommend this color scheme. I loved every minute of planning this black & gold bridal shower for my sister. Happy party planning!
