My thirteen year old self would have DIED if I had known that nine years later I would show up to a party by myself, talk to people I’ve never met, and actually enjoy it! (I was so painfully shy!) When I saw Brittany’s post on instagram about a summer solstice party, I was all onboard. A party hosted by all of my favorite creatives? Count me in! Everyone was wearing their summer whites in the garden/backyard of my dreams. The party didn’t disappoint, I only wish my pictures could do justice! It was whimsical, beautiful, and every detail was so perfectly thought out. Complete with floral crowns, a beautiful garden, swag bags, delectable food, and the loveliest of people.

Seriously, the most perfect summer evening and the party to top all other parties. I still wear my floral crown everyday 😉
It's so feminine! I like these ideas and simple touches and can see them at a bridal shower or a birthday party! I get you on the shyness too, introverted at first and then it ending up to not be a big deal!
SO cute!!! Love this!! I totally applaud you for getting over the shyness and going! I always say that I am not that shy until something like this comes along and then I get so nervous and am always so glad that I did afterwards! So I totally applaud you for it!! It looks like a gorgeous evening!
