Mary, Im so sorry.. Im in the same boat... we dont have family here (they are overseas) so its just FHs fam and Ive heard that some of them are already saying no cause its in Queens and not in LI... so I probably wont have that many people at my shower either we will still have a great time!!!

Gabriela, thanks, sweetie!!!! I'm so sorry some of your family cannot attend your shower!!!!! for you too, hon!!!!!!! Mary MOB

LOL
once in a blue moon i let her pick a sample or 2 to have..... but she is always asking me if i have any broken ones she can have. I usually let her and Jon have the broken ones. their fav is the peanut butter and milk chocolate ones, but they rarely break

Aww Mary-but sometimes the smaller the shower, the better. I like them. I find them more intimate and more fun than some of the bigger ones Ive been to.

Re: Girls, I'm really disappointed with the shower !!!!!!

I'd be REALLY happy if 16 people came to my shower! My entire family is on the West Coast.... Heck I'd be really happy if 16 of them even made it to the wedding... But that's not a possibility at all. I won't even have any grandparents there....

I have these fears of walking down the aisle and only the first pew on my side is occupied... even though I'm pretty sure tha'ts how it's going to be... and it makes me really really sad.

So I guess I'm telling you this to let you know it can always be worse At least she has people who care enough to go at all.

I truly hope Donna has the best shower! I love that you are so concerned about it and although I don't know Donna, from what you tell us about her I think she is going to really see the effort you put into this and will appreciate every aspect.

My wedding is not what I pictured as a little girl... but what is? I found the man of my dreams and I just have to keep reminding myself that that's really all that matters!
Who knows... God-willing I might get to have 2 receptions!!! ;) 1 here and 1 West Coast Style ;)

I know you'll keep us updated... I can't wait for the pictures.

Re: Girls, I'm really disappointed with the shower !!!!!!

Mary you are the most amazing mother and I'm sure Donna knows all the efforts you've put behind this wedding and shower. I am certain it will be a perfect intimate shower with Donna surrounded by people who really love and care about her.

Re: Girls, I'm really disappointed with the shower !!!!!!

I'm sorry But if you think of it this way, if there's fewer people, the more time you (and Donna) get to spend with everyone! I had in the mid 20s and I didn't really get to sit and chat or spend time with people. I would have loved something smaller!
