Let the Wedding Parties & Showers Begin!

This weekend was full of great friends, wonderful hostesses, good food and lots of fun! It was the weekend of my bridal shower! 

The shower was held at my aunt's house in Summerville and was hosted by my sister, aunt and grandmother. The menu consisted of croissants with raspberry preserves or Nutella, cheese straws, fresh fruit, mini muffins, breakfast casserole, and shrimp & grits! 

We played a fun little game before we got started opening gifts - everyone wrote down a memory they had of/with me and I had to guess who wrote it. It was so fun reminiscing! 

Cameron even got a gift! :)
Had to get a pic with Cocky!
The wonderful hostesses!
LOVED my dress and got so many compliments on it! It's by Trina Turk and I rented it from Rent the Runway!

Last week, I mentioned that we had an oyster roast thrown for us by Cameron's mom's friends. It was a great way to kick off the 3 month countdown!

It was held at one of their houses on the marsh, with an amazing view. The oysters were some of the biggest I've ever seen!

Sorry in advance for the crappy Iphone pics. 
 
 

Can't wait for the next one in February!

  2. How fun! I bet it was exciting to finally have your bridal shower!

    So I've thought about doing rent the runway but what do you do if the dress doesn't fit you? Did you have a backup in your closet?
