I had my shower This past Sunday.. (no pics yet.. sorry)

But a little background... I lost my mother to Breast Cancer 4 years ago.. So the girls did a book called:

'Letters to the Bride'

The first page said something to the effect:

We wanted to write you letters to show you how important you are to everyone...I know it can never replace the one letter you wont receive from your mother the day before your wedding but we hope these will show you how loved you are'.
Something like that....

They were each sent a page to decorate front a back however they wanted to.. then inside the wrote a letter to me. They sent the pages back to the BM who assemble the book.

Some were funny..some were moving and sweet... but all were amazing...the decorations on the pages were incredible. The effort that went intot he pages and the letters were amazing!!!!

The one letter Im not supposed to read until the day before the wedding in from my Sister/MOH.

It was so touching.. just wanted to share that idea with everyone b/c it was something I will have forever and I can't tell you how important those letters are to me.!!
