Bridal Shower
a shower for
Chipego
Before she says I do
An invitation
Come and spoil her
There is a wedding coming, and before it there is an afternoon that belongs entirely to Chipego — tea poured properly, too many flowers, and the people who have loved her longest in one room. Bring a story about her you have never told at a dinner table.

Finding us
The Orangery
Not long now
Until the tea is poured
Counting down to two o’clock, and to the last afternoon we call her by her own name alone.
Small print, kindly
A few notes
ON GIFTS
Nothing is expected. If you would like to, her registry is below and a note in her guest book counts double.
ON LITTLE ONES
Children are welcome until four, when the garden games begin and the toasts get long.
ON PHOTOGRAPHS
Take as many as you like — please send the unflattering ones to her sisters, not to her.
If you are wondering
The colours
Wear anything in this family and you will look as though you were painted into the afternoon.

Will you be there?
