Her creations filled many of us with joy and provided inspiration the world over and we believe that Kate Spade, her voice, the brand that she launched, and her legacy will continue to inspire magic in the future just as it did for this Kate Spade-themed bridal shower shot by Sunshower Photography at historic Duke Mansion in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Inspiration for the event came directly from the bride herself. Ashley’s Charleston residence is filled with bright colors, pineapples, black and white accents, and a dash of Kate Spade, which translated into a sophisticated tea party for family and friends.
The hope was for a classic, upscale shower, and the Duke Mansion fit the bill perfectly, while also allowing the guests to let the celebration continue into the night.
The menu boasted nods to the South and included classic tea sandwiches with pimento grilled cheese and sweet potato biscuits. The mimosa bar was a hit with the attendees, allowing them to customize their drinks with a variety of fruit juices and fresh fruit garnishes.
