So I had like the Best Weekend Ever.
I'll go in reverse order and say that my bridal party and mom threw me the most AMAZING shower on Sunday. It was here: www.highsocieteanj.com -- this freakin' adorable little tea house. We had the whole run of the place and had these little pots of different flavored teas, quiche, scones with clotted cream, finger sandwiches, adorable tasty little desserts... every bite was delightful 
And of course I *knew* it would be wonderful having like every woman I know and love in one place, but wow -- I was really unprepared for just how awesome it felt
I don't have too many pics, because I wasn't really the one talking photos But here's one of me (in bright green) with all but one BM
Here's one of me with my aunt -- just cause you get the best shot of my outfit ... heh heh
And on Saturday, I had my first dress fitting... Now, I've been having these nightmares that the thing wasn't going to fit. Pronovias has apparently recently changed their sizing, so they ordered me teh same number as the sample, even though the sample was a bit snug. They assured me that this number now corresponded to a bigger dress... but still....
But it totally fit and I felt like a diva rockstar. Well, as much diva rockstar as a nerdy bookwormy type ever feels. But seriously, I LOVE this dress. Here it is:

So, yay! But I have to mention that after we were all done, I found out from my mom, sis and BM who was with me that my exact fear happened to the girl in the next dressing room -- we don't know all the details on how this happened, but apparently the dress just didn't her -- it sounded like it was too small and they couldn't get it on her. and she was PISSED. I keep thinking about this poor girl. Her wedding is a week before mine... I wish I could call up the store and find out what happened to her, because it's like this nagging question in my head -- will everything be OK for her?
