*UPDATED AUGUST 12: Added photo of the completed program fans on the chairs at our ceremony
It has finally hit me that the wedding is right around the corner!
My wedding shower was last weekend and it was wonderful! I got lots of wonderful gifts and really felt all the love and great wishes from everyone who came. I got a Nintendo Wii as one of my shower gifts, unconventional I know, but something Rob and I have wanted for quite a while now. We play video games together often. My dad also made an appearance which made me cry. He brought me 24 ivory roses, one for every year that I've been his little girl, and now he's giving me away. We danced to "Butterfly Kisses" (a song that is banned at the wedding because it makes me too emotional) and almost everybody had some tears. I'll post some shower pictures once I get them from my sister's camera.
This weekend we will be having a "wrapping party" to get all the wedding favours wrapped. They are all little square boxes with a little ceramic container in them that will have 3 delicious chocolates. We are going to wrap all the boxes in brown kraft paper and different green ribbons around each one. They will go on the center of each plate on the guest tables. Soooooo cute!
