Bridal Shower Success!!
April 30th, 2010 | 
Author: My bridal shower was last Saturday and I can honestly say that I couldn’t have hoped (prayed) for a better party! My sister (matron of honor) should be an event planner. Our wedding colors are black & white damask with red accents and she pulled off this theme like it was nobody’s business!!! The RED everywhere was so awesome! Even the bridal party dressed accordingly. You will even notice that we had RED food (salsa, watermelon, strawberry-pretzel salad, meatballs, oreos with red centers dipped in red chocolate, red punch and even red velvet cupcakes. You will even notice the red candy on the tables)
I was a little nervous going into this because I’m not to fond of being the center of attention. I tend to blend in with the crowd rather than draw attention to myself. But, I can honestly say that there was not a single moment that I felt uncomfortable….well, except for when I opened a gift from my aunt and I wasn’t quite sure what it was (and to be honest, I still don’t really know what it is. Something to “beat” meat with??? I don’t eat a lot of meat so I’m clueless)
A BIG thank you to my sister for such a wonderful party and thanks to my bridesmaids for pitching in and being there to celebrate with me. And now I will let the pictures do the rest of the talking…….

Such an awesome day! I’m still flying high from it! It really really really went off well! I hate being the center of attention just as much as you so it’s nice to know you felt good at the end of the day! It was super fast but couldn’t have asked for better! All that hard work and preparation didn’t go unnoticed, I am sure!
