Samantha’s Chic Bridal Shower at The James in Babylon, NY
Samantha’s chic bridal shower was one for the books — a beautiful blend of elevated style, sweet sentiment, and heartfelt celebration at The James!
The James – Babylon, NY
Held at the iconic The James in Babylon, NY, this shower was chic from start to finish. The James was the perfect location with vaulted ceilings, stylish bar, impeccable ambiance, and delicious bites.
Fashionable Bride & Guests
The bride-to-be looked absolutely stunning in her Cult Gaia dress paired with a matching Cult Gaia handbag — effortlessly fashionable and glowing. Samantha was the most stylish bride, and her friends and family followed suit. Guests arrived dressed in spring-ready looks featuring butter yellow (this season’s it color!), spring pastels, and other vibrant hues. The stylish dresses brought the whole space to life!
The Details!
What made this day feel even more personal were the thoughtful details sprinkled throughout the event. A gorgeous flower bar created by Victorian Flower Shoppe, branded with Samantha’s future last name and wedding date, added a custom touch that everyone loved. BonBon candy bags, family recipe cards, and handwritten advice for the bride and groom made the celebration feel uniquely “Sam and PJ.”
Toward the end of the shower, PJ made a sweet appearance, arriving with bouquets of flowers for the ladies — such a thoughtful gesture! We grabbed a few photos of Samantha and PJ together by the stunning bar before the day came to a close. It felt like the entire celebration flew by in the blink of an eye — a true testament to how much love was in the room for this incredible bride-to-be.
It was an honor to capture this beautiful day. Samantha, you are so loved — and your bridal shower was the perfect kickoff to the celebrations still to come!
