Cleve-town Bachelorette PARTAY!

Let's just say that Thursday May 10 will go down in history as one of the most fun nights ever. :)

Things began with a nice dinner (okay, + jello shots) at Nicki and Nina's place -- yummy chicken/pasta alfredo and salad... mmm. We also played a game that tested how much everyone there knew about Matt and me (and our relationship!)

We then got into the "Bachelorette Mobile" (aka Lor's mom's van) and drove out to a local dance studio. Not just any dance studio, though... a very physically fit woman taught us all how to ... uhh... "dance!"

Finally it was on to a nearby hotel suite for the last portion of the party before sleeping, an eye-opening and crazy toy party!

We'll leave it at that, but girls who were there, I'm sure Matt will thank you all after the honeymoon. :)

Ladies Dresses are so pretty!

I chose Raylia Designs for my bridesmaids and flower girl. The dress is "Shana" and the color is "pine" (about like the background of this page.) The FG dress is white with pine trim, and is on the right. The BM dress is solid pine, shown in the middle. We're also having bellmaidens, who will ring bells in the front while I enter, in home-sewed pine dresses with white trim + white gloves, shown to the left. It is a McCalls pattern.

The Guys

The guys went with After Hours Formalwear, after we won a $100 coupon at a bridal show. Everyone has a black long tie, but the vest colors are different depending on the role in the wedding: groom gets white, groomsmen and ring bearer gets teal, and ushers get black. They are going to be so classy looking-- I can't wait to see my groom!
