Not even Denise Richards’ renewed war of words with her fiancé Charlie Sheen could dampen Brooke Mueller’s spirit this week.
The former real estate agent-turned-Extra correspondent was all smiles as she celebrated her bridal shower Sunday afternoon. Joined by a slew of friends, including Rebecca Gayheart, Brooke toasted her impending nuptials at the Warehouse restaurant in Marina del Rey, Calif. and left the party with a handful of presents.
The 30-year-old is expected to tie the knot with Charlie this Friday in a super-casual ceremony.
"No ties at my wedding," Charlie said last month. "It's going to be hot. I want people to be comfortable."
Also nixed – presents. In lieu of wedding gifts, the couple has asked guests to make donations to Chrysalis, a charitable organization whose mission statement is "transforming lives affected by domestic abuse through safety, support and education."
Charlie and Brooke met in 2006 shortly after the 42-year-old split from Denise, whose E! reality show Denise Richards: It’s Complicated premieres tonight. The actor popped the question in July with a $500,000 rock.
This will be Charlie’s third marriage; Brooke, her first.
