The wedding festivities have begun. My sweet friends gave Courtney a bridal shower.

It was perfect. Perfect for her.

It was held at a winery called the Corkscrew.

Courtney is not incredibly social. A bridal shower is WAY out of her comfort zone. It was supposed to be very low key. No games (thank goodness), she would wait and open her gifts at home so as to not feel like the center of attention, even though she is the bride.

There was food and wine, cake and mimosa’s.

So many friends and family came to celebrate. It was the first meet for some.

As the party progressed, Courtney was very comfortable (I think the wine helped) and I asked her if she would like to open her gifts. She actually said YES:)

I am so incredibly thankful for people who love my girl almost as much as I do.

Wedding plans are coming along. We were making plans on the front porch this week. It’s too bad the front porch still looks super ugly.

Love,

The soon to be mother of the bride:)
