Bridal Luncheon

On my last day as a Miss, my sweet friends hosted a lovely luncheon for me and my precious ladies.  

The ladies who hosted this sweet luncheon are all so precious to me and I am so thankful for this sweet outpouring of love and support as I journeyed to my big day.

The tables were beautifully appointed with tulips -- some of my favorite flowers!

It was so nice to have a fun and relaxing time visiting with friends 

and enjoying a delicious meal before the festivities of the big day began.

We enjoyed the most delicious key lime pie for dessert and I loved being able to thank my sweet friends for their love and support on this journey with small tokens of appreciation.  I loved the way our local paper store wrapped the gifts for me complete with personalized gift tags and bows!

 I am so thankful for each of these ladies and the way their love and friendship have shaped my life.  It is certainly a precious thing that our cultural traditions offer these pauses in life to celebrate and reflect on those around us and how thankful we are for them.  I know I would never have gotten to this point in my life without them!
