The Bubbly Files

A woodland shower for Kim and Cameron

Baby Showers · A home in Santa Clarita · July 2022

A we-can-bearly-wait woodland shower, one of the first celebrations that inspired Bubbly, built around a charcuterie grazing table they trusted us to design from start to finish.

This one is close to our hearts. Kim and Cameron’s shower is one of the celebrations that inspired Bubbly in the first place. They were expecting a baby boy and living in Colorado, so we built them a woodland “we can bearly wait” shower in Santa Clarita and they trusted us with every last detail.

Where it started

One of the celebrations that inspired Bubbly

Kim and Cameron came to us before Bubbly was Bubbly, and they did the bravest thing you can do with two friends who have never been paid to throw a party. They handed us the whole thing and said go. No mood board, no must-haves, no second-guessing, just full trust to design their celebration from the first idea to the last plate.

They were expecting a baby boy and living in Colorado, so we leaned into a woodland look for them. Eucalyptus and gold, a little teddy bear tucked into every detail, and a sign that read we can bearly wait. Getting to set the whole tone ourselves is still one of our favorite ways to work, and we have them to thank for the first shot at it.

The signature moment

A grazing table that stopped people at the door

The heart of it was a charcuterie grazing table that ran nearly the length of the room. Cured meats, wedges and wheels of cheese, fresh and dried fruit, warm breads, dips, nuts, and honey, all layered edge to edge on wood boards with eucalyptus threaded between.

It is the thing guests still bring up. People walked in, saw the table, and went quiet for a second before diving in. That little pause was exactly what we were hoping for.
