The Shower is Upon Me
Well the time has come for me to sit as guest of honour at my own bridal shower.
My future sister in law and also bridesmaid decided to throw me a shower and I am so honoured, happy, giddy, excited, panicked, anxious and other emotions falling under the ‘nervous’ category. Yes this is so exciting and I cannot believe the wedding is coming up so quickly (two months!). But to have everyone ’shower’ me with gifts and be there all for me is overwhelming. I never thought I would be nervous at being the centre of attention. I love being the centre of attention!! But as a bride to be, I feel perhaps overwhelemed. This is the biggest and best part of my life so far! Not to sound like “one of those” brides. I’ve been a bridesmaid before and have kept a close eye on what I want to act like and what I don’t want to act like when my time comes. As well as what I do want and don’t want to do as the big day approaches.
One was not have three showers. Tick! Not going overboard. There are two showers and whoever is invited to the one this weekend won’t be obligated to come to the one being thrown by my Maids of Honours.
Another was not to be so panicked. Well that I realize I cannot help. It just gets to crunch time and you start wondering if everything is done! Especially with invites. Did we forget anyone? Will anyone take it upon themselves to invite their children? ahhh.
Well back to the shower this weekend. I’m excited and thrilled but at the same time I’m working to calm my nerves. I know it will be a ton of fun and I’m so happy everyone who is there will be there because they care about and support both me and my fiance.
