This is my first time to join in Tablescape Thursday, hosted by Susan ,
http://betweennapsontheporch.blogspot.com/ . I hope this qualifies since I am showing my table. Ha. This past weekend we hosted a bridal shower for my dear friend Betsy's son, Matthew and his fiancee, Leslie. Come on in and enjoy the party.

It was a beautiful day. I added wreaths from my daughter's wedding decorations to the door and tied tulle bows to the porch lights to welcome our guests.

We set up the beverage station on the kitchen island. We served sweet tea, (yes this is the South , and we like our sweet tea ), and cherry limeade punch from Italian beverage jars. The glasses came from Dollar Tree.

Ham rolls are served on a tiered tray from Garden Ridge.

Fruit was skewered into a pineapple for a centerpiece. Of course we had the obligatory cheeseball with crackers.

These are chocolate cheesecake truffles I made by baking a cheesecake with no crust, and then scooping with a small cookie scoop and freezing. Then I dipped them in melted chocolate and white coating.

Homemade chicken salad on croissants from Wal-Mart. Don't you just love the pinwheel croissants? I had never seen them before. Are you getting hungry yet?

My mother made a banner that read, "She said yes" to hang on the mantel with a couple more pics of Matt and Leslie.

You thought of everything! What a fun celebration - the food and refreshment looks so pretty as well - this is all nicely done>
Somehow you got to my test blog. Hope you will come back and join the REAL one--oops--I did not think it was viewable!
You incorporated so many beautiful and thoughtful elements for this charming party table! Those chocolate cheesecake truffles are making my mouth water! I haven't seen the pinwheel croissants before, but I've never met a croissant I didn't like!
Your fruity centerpiece is VERY festive. Great post!
