Porsha Williams' baby shower was but a dream.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta star pulled out all the stops for her over-the-top shower at Suada Studio in Atlanta last month. In celebration of her impending baby girl, the 37-year-old mommy-to-be invited 80 of her closest family and friends for a winter wonderland-themed shower that featured a dance floor, ice sculptures, thousands of flowers, a gourmet buffet, and that's not even the half of it.

"The day was magical," Porsha told People, adding the beautiful shower was thrown by her “loving fiancé” Dennis McKinley. "It was amazing to walk into a room and feel that much love. I have such a tremendous support system around me and women who lift me up and are just so incredibly happy for me."

Speaking of a strong support system, Porsha's RHOA cast mates —Kenya Moore, Cynthia Bailey, and Marlo Hampton — were among the 80 guests invited to the celebration.

“I’ve waited a really really long time for this moment,” Porsha added. “I am cherishing each minute and enjoy every day being pregnant. It’s a blessing for us.” As fans know, the 37-year-old reality star announced her pregnancy in September, six years after suffering a miscarriage.

Repping @peanut at my baby shower! During my pregnancy, I've been so overwhelmed with the power of community. I’m craving conversation with other mamas and mamas-to-be more than ever. I’ve used @peanut to connect with a whole squad of mamas. @peanut is an app that introduces you to other women in your neighborhood based on things you have in common— interests, mutual friends, how far along you are in your pregnancy, or even the age/gender of your children. You can meet, chat and ask questions to a community of women who just get it and have all the answers!!! You can meet so many amazing women on the app, so I encourage all my mamas and mamas-to-be to check it out. Let's dish on all things motherhood!  #peanutapp #Sponsored 📸: @stanlophotography

The glowing reality star also dished on what she's looking forward to the most when it comes to meeting her daughter for the first time."[I'm] most excited to look into" her "eyes for the first time," she told People. "I’m also excited for her to meet her daddy face-to-face for the first time. I lost my father years ago — he was a really special man. It’s hard at times, but keeping his memory alive is important to me."

"Although Baby PJ won’t get the chance to meet him, I know he is here in spirit and guiding me," she continued. "I can feel his presence. … We are blessed to watch our mothers be grandmas to Baby PJ. We love our moms! We were both raised by very strong women and this feels full circle for me. I’m also so excited to read her her first book, do late-night feedings and have the privilege of singing lullabies to our baby girl!"
