I think the concept of having a wedding shower is American, but if this concept is alive somewhere else let me know. When someone throws the bride (and sometimes groom) a shower, it is a party before the wedding to celebrate the couple and usually give them gifts off the registry.
On July 26th, my aunt Sandy threw me a shower and most all my aunts and girl cousins were able to make it. It was a beautiful party at a restaurant in Northbrook. The food was delicious and there were fun games and prizes! When I brought home everything that I received from my family at the shower, Alberto was in amazement. Since the concept of a shower isn't in Italy, he didn't know what to expect. He had fun for hours unpacking all his new kitchen toys!
On August 1st after my family from Buffalo came into town, the Bryzinskis and Janowskys threw Alberto and I a shower. This time Alberto was able to enjoy opening the gifts and celebrating with good food. He loved it!
