Too bad my friends will miss out on this one. I'll have lots of pics from the shower next week - expect food, friends, fashion and more to come - I can hardly wait!
Yours looks a lot better than mine did. I agree, I do think they have to be served warm which is not a great choice for a party. You are looking so great! Radiant!
