lift up your head princess.

There is so much happening lately. The countdown is on....which is a little scary. I am getting married in less than two months. So, as you can probably guess, life is in overdrive at the moment. There is planning and packing and forms and well, the list goes on and on. Something else that has been taking up my time? Pre-wedding events. And lots of them! The most recent was the bridal shower. My mom hosted it at our house - and just about every one of my friends showed up. That alone was pretty wonderful.

The theme? Disney Princesses. Our house was transformed into princessland, with decorations, dolls, food, and more. It took a lot of work to get the place ready, but it was worth it! The highlights? Catching up with old friends and spending time with my bridesmaids. Honestly, there were some not so fantastic moments thrown in there as well....but I am choosing to focus on the good parts instead.

Which is why I thought that I would share some of my favourite pictures from the day. As I mentioned before, the theme was Disney Princesses. Trust me, I looked the part! My mom bought me a Cinderella costume so I would be dressed and ready for the day. I put my hair up in a bun, rocked my tiara, and created a makeup look with the Cinderella palette from Sephora.

Are you ready to take a peek at my Cinderella look? Here it is - along with some other noteworthy moments from the bridal shower.

The bridal shower was certainly an experience. There were wonderful moments and disappointing moments....but ultimately, it was a day full of love. That is something I will never forget. 

What have you been up to lately? How do you celebrate special moments?
