Wes heard people at the door and removed himself from his self-imposed exile in the kitchen. He opened the door to Lizzie and Warren. "Are you here for the shower? It's in the living room down the hall. The presents are stacked on a table."
To say that Gwen was flattered by all this would be an understatement. The fact that Laili was doing such a... motherly thing for her was about the closest thing to weepworthy that Gwen had ever felt.
Walking in, she immediately noticed that Warren, Lizzie, and Tina were already there. As she walked by Wesley and Laili, she paused to hug each of them lovingly, before running up to hug each of her friends.
"Thank you guys so much for being here! I'm hoping the others show up soon..."
Wesley hugged her back, then followed her into the living room, although he hung back from the growing crowd of people that he didn't know and had to be at least a decade older than all of them.
After Mere was let in by Wesley, she dropped her present off at the table and hunted Gwen down, wrapping her in a quick hug. "So, how's the bridal shower treating you so far? Is Skylar going to be here?" She didn't know how this worked with two brides.
Gwen almost squealed when she saw Meredith. While she valued almost all her friends equally... she knew damned well that anytime Meredith showed up, a good time was going to follow. Plus, now, with Tina, Mere, and Warren all there... while she still hoped more of her friends turned up, at least she knew her three 'BFFs' were there.
"I dunno, really! I told her about it, and told her she was more than welcome... so whether or not she shows is anyone's guess."
All things considered, Chloe felt extremely nervous showing up. She really was more of a 'pal' to Gwen than a good friend, and she'd never met the girls, er, parents(?) before... so, despite more sugar in her system than could possibly be healthy for a teenaged girl, Chloe went out and bought a small gift for the shower, and walked in, humming quietly to herself.
Soon enough, Skylar arrived as well, her own gift for Gwen in her hands. She knocked on the door, ready with the excuse that Gwen had told her to stop by and, since she had a gift anyway, it was alright, right?
Gwen giggled like a little girl as her soon-to-be-wife walked in, and without thinking about things like her above-average strength and agility, practically pounced the poor girl.
"Skylar? I think ya know everyone here... Lizzie you met briefly, but now she's doing-slash-dating Warren, so she's like, officially part of the gang now."
Skylar nearly toppled over at Gwen jumped her. "Hey there sweetie," she said, thankful that she had just set her own present aside. She arched an eyebrow at Warren. "I think I'll avoid 'throwing down' in my future wife's parent's home, thank you." She nodded a hello to Lizzie as well, still pretty much wrapped up in Gwen at the moment.

Gwen was pretty much the best friend that she had, so this was almost as important to her as it was to Gwen.
