Wisteria Lane pals have bash for bride-to-be
Tuesday, 17 April 2007
Who better to throw Eva Longoria a bridal shower than her Desperate Housewives costars?
Longoria, 32, and castmates Teri Hatcher, Marcia Cross and Brenda Strong, along with hairstylist Ken Paves and stylist Robert Verdi, gathered at Felicity Huffman's Los Angeles home on Sunday for an outdoor bash.
The guest of honor, who will marry Tony Parker in Paris on July 7, wore a taupe Badgley Mischka dress and Giuseppe Zanotti shoes to the party, where guests competed to make the most elegant wedding gown – out of toilet paper.
Longoria, serving as judge, chose Hatcher for her tissue frock adorned with pink roses and a tiara.
The shower featured a sit-down lunch with little pink houses as centerpieces on the brown and pink tables. On the menu: a salad bar with chicken, salmon, shrimp and gourmet cheeses, accompanied by white wine and specialty martinis. Afterwards, guests indulged in brownies, chocolate chip cookies and white-chocolate pastries.
The revelers had been instructed to give the couple gifts for each room of their house. "I got the living room," Strong told PEOPLE, "and got her this really beautiful imported mirror."
Verdi tried to bring out Longoria's inner housewife by gifting her with a set of Calphalon cookware and a library of 30 cookbooks signed by top chefs such as Nigella Lawson, Wolfgang Puck and Mario Batali.
And what did Huffman get her friend?
"I'm giving her this damn shower," she told PEOPLE on Saturday at a gala for the American Fertility Association. "I don't have to get her a present as well, do I?"
