This past Saturday I had a wedding shower with family and friends from growing up back in Woodbridge, VA. Cristina, my maid of honor, and my two matrons of honor were gracious enough to pull it all together, and Cristina's mom let us use her beautiful home for the big event! Words can't describe how perfect everything was - I seriously couldn't have asked for more.
It was great to be able to have so much family in town (Aunt Judy and Aunt Jacqui - you win the award for traveling the farthest!) and to be able to spend time with old friends, neighbors, and my bridesmaids!
Since everyone knows I love wine, the entire evening had a wine theme. As you wandered through the house, you could visit different "countries" and taste their wines and food selections. What a great idea!
They also had awesome plates that held your wine glass so you could eat and drink AND have a free hand. This seems like such a small thing, I know, but it's just an example of the careful attention they gave to every detail.
Here are a few snapshots from the wonderful events. THANK YOU to everyone who was there!

| A station to share marriage advice! |
 |
| Each of my bridesmaids submitted a question about me and guests had to see how many they could get right. Some of my girls were nice...others exposed some of my more embarrassing secrets! |

| Mom and Me :) |

| What a great decoration for the Italian station. |

| This package definitely wins when it comes to creative wrapping. Thanks Patsy and Jessi! |
