Meghan Markle Had a Spa-Themed Bridal Shower
Meghan Markle reportedly had a spa-themed bridal shower over the weekend, which was thrown for her by her closest friends, Us Weekly reports. The pre-wedding fête took place just a little over two months before she marries Prince Harry on May 19.
The bride-to-be's party was held at Soho Farmhouse in the Oxfordshire countryside, about two hours outside of London, sources told Us. The rustic-chic venue is an elite members club and extension of Soho House, for which Markle's friend Markus Anderson (who was rumored to have introduced her to Harry) is a consultant. In fact, Anderson was the one who organized the shower, according to sources.
The Farmhouse boasts 100 acres of countryside, an array of well-decorated cabins and cottages, a spa, indoor and outdoor pools, a theater, tennis courts, boating, horse-riding, barn restaurants and more, according to its website.
Seriously, this venue looks unreal. It looks like a perfectly cozy destination for a cold-weathered getaway.
Cool autumn mornings call for warm Farmhouse pools 🏊 #SohoFarmhouse #SohoHouse

So who was there to enjoy the indulgent farmhouse trip with Markle? It was a "small group of mostly her London friends," a source tells E! News, including writer Lindsay Jill Roth and Pilates Platinum founder Heather Dorak. According to Us, designer Misha Noonoo was in attendance, too.
"It's just a relaxing day of good food and pampering," a source told E!.
It's unclear whether Markle's future in-law, Kate Middleton, was also present. Perhaps she'll join in on the bride-to-be's upcoming bachelorette party, which is also expected to be private and "low-key" like her bridal shower. The future duchess previously revealed that the party is already planned, but she's "not sure" about the details. "It's sorted but it will be fun," she said.
