Molly's Bridal Luncheon

Molly with her tiara. Ellen thought the Bride needed a little sparkle. She found this and had Molly wear it for a picture.

We started the luncheon by filling out a card with a blessing for the Bride and Groom on one side of the card and a bit of marital advice on the other side of the card. It was fun to have Ellen read the card and have Molly guess which guest had written this for her.

Ellen also made a charm cake and each bridesmaid, Rachel and Abi all pulled a charm so that Ellen could predict the meaning of the charm. This was a fun game, it is always fun to hear Ellen's idea of what the meaning of each charm is meant to be.

We ended the luncheon by all standing in a circle and praying a blessing on Molly and Jonathan and their marriage. I am not sure there was a dry eye in the room. That was a very special time for all of the guest.























Ellen Gant and Lisa Jo McCasland hosted the Bridal Luncheon for Molly Bly. The decor was in the wedding colors, Pink and Orange and just beautiful. The meal was absolutely delicious as only Ellen can do. She is a great cook.

Molly, Molly Bly and Bly all at the luncheon. The Bride, Molly, with both her grandmothers. Did you ever wonder why she is named Molly Bly? This should clear up that question.

Meredith, Holly, Molly, Carli, Rachel, Keely, and Abi.



Bly is showing the strawberry cake, strawberries and chocolate candy that we were given for dessert. This was wonderful.



















I am sorry that I do not have a picture of Jonathan's mom on this post. Paula came in a little late and I had already taken pictures and forgot to pull my camera out and get her picture.

Your party looks amazing dear. I am sure you had great time in this wonderful party. Thanks for sharing pictures as well. My bachelorette had been organized at one of most beautiful Chicago wedding venues. We also had some outdoor time and enjoyed it a lot.
