bridesmaids luncheon

I had the perfect bridesmaids luncheon last weekend, hosted by friends of my mom. We had a nice lunch at the country club, and I got to spend time with family and close friends. 

My nephew was the only boy there, so we had a mini photo shoot. 

He was jazzed to be there. But really, he behaved so well! 

He's only three months old and looks exactly like my brother. It's like watching my own (older) brother grow up! Wild! 

I'm thankful that these pals were there! It was pretty unreal that it was exactly a week before our wedding. How do people endure longer than a six month engagement?! I can't wait!!! 

our bridal shower

My best friend and next door neighbors threw a coed shower for us in April. It was clear that they put a lot of time and effort into it, which is nothing less than I'd expect from Lindsay. All of the details were so thoughtful! 

They created a photo scavenger hunt with pictures of us, and once all of the blank spaces were filled in on the sheet, it even spelled out a secret phrase about us flying! 

Lindsay's dad made these adorable bride and groom clothespins. 

Lindsay and Tom made us airplane cookies with our initials. How personal and sweet! 

One of my favorite details was the beautiful flowers. 

Thank you, Kelvingtons, for a wonderful shower!!!

bridal shower outfit

I haven't done an outfit post in months, so I figured I may as well take a few photos while I was dressed for my bridal shower. These days I pretty much live in barre clothes. More bridal event outfits forthcoming . . . 

I decided to go the traditional route in a white dress and simple accessories. 

Zack and I got to visit with so many of our family members and friends this weekend. I am blown away by all of the people who support us and all of the gifts we received. 

I didn't give him any input with the registry sooooooo he gave us this face. He has no idea what's coming!

snowy engagement photos

For Christmas, Zack's sister generously gave us an engagement photo session with Leslie Perkins Photography. We got snow at the perfect time when Zack was in town and Leslie was available to take these photos. Leslie was easy to work with, and I'm pleased with the photos. 

I am entertaining the thought of wedding Wednesdays. Would you be interested in reading wedding posts? What would you like to read about? Comment below or email me!
