I had my first bridal shower 2 weekends ago, and it was so lovely!  This was my local, friends shower, hosted by two of my bridesmaids.  I have 2 more showers coming up - one with my parents' friends this coming weekend in Kentucky, and then another with my extended family in Indiana in August.  I am honestly overwhelmed by the generosity and eagerness of family and friends to host these showers!  I never would have imagined it. 

So I figured I would start a shower thread

My friend shower was great - just my best local girlfriends sitting around, drinking wine and eating chicken salad.  We even had my favorite -- carrot cake!  My mom was able to attend - she flew in from Indiana.  This was a really special day for me; all the gifts were SO "Krissie" including my favorite - a Tory Burch tote that I can use on our honeymoon!  Hurrah!

My most "whimsical" gift -- a set of martini "Stallion" glasses.  Being from Kentucky, I take my horse racing seriously.  Among other gifts, my bridesmaid could not pass on getting me horse martini glasses that actually BLINK.  What a hoot!

Like I said, my mom was able to attend.  It was so neat!  I think we look alike here.

Shower fashion-wise, I wore a Nanette Lepore bright orange dress, with matching bright orange wedges from Ann Taylor.  It was a bit over the top, but I knew that it would be perfect for a party with my girlfriends!

Will update with news and pics of Shower 2 when we return from Kentucky!

Krissie it sounds like you had a lot of fun at your shower!  And two more to go?  I'd be hyperventilating.  You look so happy and ADORABLE in that dress.  Great choice.

Thank you, ladies!!  I love looking back at pics from the shower and just smiling, because I'm so goofy and happy in all of them.  I think the next 2 will be a bit more formal because they're with parents' friends and family, so I'll probably be on better behavior, too

This is when the wedding process gets fun!!
