wine bridal shower | Ultimate Bridesmaid

If you are a person who thinks you don’t like bridal showers, try adding wine. Ta-da! Now you love bridal showers! But seriously, Running Hare Vineyard in Prince Frederick, Maryland, was the perfect setting for this gorgeous bridal shower picnic for bride Andie’s family and friends. Matron of honor Caroline gifted each guest with mini pies from Andie’s favorite bakery and the ladies enjoyed cabernet and conversation in the sunshine. Costola Photography was on hand to capture the special moments from the winery bridal shower, including a mini photo session with Andie’s fiancé.

A bridal shower is above all about celebrating with the women in your life, and what better place to raise a glass to a future bride than a gorgeous vineyard in South Africa? Nitidia Wine Estate was the perfect setting for this intimate shower for bride Natasha. Her friends shared their best wishes for her on her upcoming wedding day and enjoyed sparkling wine and some sweet treats. They saved a few sweet surprises for Natasha as well—especially when she cut into her candy-filled cake! (Why aren’t all cakes magically filled with candy?!) The emotion of the day shines through in the photos captured by Crazy Little Thing, from Natasha’s beaming smile to the girls’ heartfelt toasts. Cheers!
