Askalot's Bridal Shower/Bachelorette Party

Ladies, ladies, ladies My shower was Saturday (7/28) and I must say that I had a BLAST. My BP rented out a fabulous suite at the Ritz Carlton in NYC and the room was BEAUTIFUL. We had a fabulous view of the Harbor (I could even see my job in NJ) lol Anyway, they had a wonderful spread of food. Everyone, including the older ladies had a blast. It was like there was no difference in age. Then, my MOH started the shots of Tequila and it was just really on and poppin'. lol The dancers came around 11 and chiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiile lmao I can't download pics anymore here at work, but I will definately post them tonight. There was absolulte NOTHING that I would've changed. It was the best time I have ever had in my LIFE! Mind you ladies, I was "sick" all day yesterday and I'm still not well today. But, it was DEFINATELY worth it! :-)

Askalot, I'm so happy that your shower turned out so well. Good luck recovering from "being sick" but I am glad that it all worth it. And yes, we want pics when you get a chance to.

You don't have to hide out Askalot! You can still comment without posting your pics. You just do so at your own risk! LOL!

Re: Askalot's Bridal Shower/Bachelorette Party

Heeeeey. lol I wasn't hiding out. They've implemented this new spyware on our puters at work and I can't access photobucket anymore. :-( Now, if anyone can tell me how to post the pics from my puter's drive, I can post them because I have them saved. I didn't get a chance to post at home because for the last 2 week's, I've been running around like a chicken with it's head cut off going to the girls fittings. Tomorrow is the last fitting, so I should be good by next week. I also have pics now from my fitting, and I'm dying to post them for you ladies. Once I figure out, I'll post them.

One of bridesmaids mixes Hennesey with everything ya'll if it ain't got henny in it she ain't happy.

Your pics are great, and don't let us have to get at you about the wedding pics either ( I am one to talk) LOL

Re: Askalot's Bridal Shower/Bachelorette Party

Now that's a party! Looks like you guys had a blast. My shower is on Aug. 19th and I cannot wait. I doubt if there'll be anything stronger than champagne punch at mine, though, b/c all of my *proper* aunties will be there. I guess we'll have to wait to get loose with the Grey Goose at the bachelorette party (no aunties allowed at that)!

Re: Askalot's Bridal Shower/Bachelorette Party

You ladies are crazy! Yep, that's the Henny! lol I can't drink that stuff! I drink Malibu! :-) But, that night, I had too many shot of Tequilla. :-)

It looked like a bar there. There was a lot of liquor. Even the elders had some drink, but nothing hard (Arbor Mist). Everyone truly had a good time.

MsTajia, I promise to post whatever pics I have from the wedding, hopefully, by the following weekend. :-)

Maybe we should institute a "swearing in" statement:

I, Crystal, do solemnly swear to be a positive, supportive ViBride. I will be considerate of my fellow ViBrides and not leave them hanging or waiting excessively long for pictures of my events. So help me God!

Chiiiiile, no it wasn't a surprise. My friends/family know they can't surprise me with something like that! I would show up with some jeans, flip flops, a tee shirt and my hair thrown back in a ponytail! lmao So, they knew better. As for my friends, they aight! lol J/K I love all of them to death! lol

Y'all are crazy! I cannot stand Henny! It is just too harsh for me. MsB, thanks for the compliment on my smile! :-) I'm cheesing right now!

And heeeeeeeeck no (about the pics)! I mean, I didn't do anything to disrespect my FH, but there's no way in the world, he'd want to see a pic of me being flipped upside down by another male or any other position! He trusts me but that right there would be a whole 'nother thang for him. lol
