Monograms&Mimosas

This weekend was by far one of the best weekends I have had in a while. Finishing up my last semester of nursing school does not leave me with a lot of free time! This weekend was full of wedding excitement, bridal bliss, and quality time with some of the greatest friends a girl could ask for.

 

 

My roommates decided they wanted to throw a bridal shower for me with all of my closest friends from Greenville! They even worked it out that my sister, mine and Devin's mom, and some of my bridesmaids from back home came which I am so thankful for! They have had to keep secrets from me for the past month (Taylor was not so good at this) but it was so worth it. All of the hard work and planning they did was so humbling and it is something I will never forget.

 

 

Just walking into the shower, I was in such awe. Everything was decorated in pink, white, and burlap. The stairs were lined with my future name “SELLERS” and when I walked in the room, there awaited all of the girls! We had some of the most delicious food served with a yummy glass of mimosa. Since my roommates know me better than most, they served breakfast foods which they know is my favorite meal of the day!

 

After we finished eating, Jessica had a little game planned for me. Since I am not showing nor telling anyone what my wedding dress looks like, they decided they were going to try and create what they thought my dress would look like…..with toilet paper.

 

Since there were a lot of girls there to play, we broke up into teams. Nursing school girls and girls outside of nursing school. I decided to volunteer my sister since she is also a bride-to-be so there wouldn’t be an unfair advantage with the second team! I was with the nursing school girls and my sister was with the others! Let me just say….you put a bunch of nursing students together on a team, they will get the job done and it will be perfected. They were wrapping me by doing figure 8s and such! Guess all those lab days practicing wrapping limbs paid off! If you took a quick glance at my toilet paper dress, you would have thought it was an actual dress. It was a “sweetheart mermaid dress with a long train and a bow in the back.”  

 

Sorry Emily…I think I won that one…..Your toilet paper gloves were a great accessory to your dress though!

 

After we finished playing the game, I opened up presents and am so grateful for all the sweet gifts everyone got me. I am so excited to be able to sport that Sellers name and they got me pretty prepared to do so! To all the guest who came, thank you again. You all mean the world to me and I am so thankful for your friendship. I don’t know what I would do without you all.

 

To my host…you girls went above and beyond to make this day so special for me. I can’t believe our time as roommates is almost over. I don’t even like to think about the day we all move out. You girls are not only my roommates, but my family. I have learned so much from y’all and am so excited for the next chapter in our lives. Thank you for loving me at my best times and at my worst times, my goods days and my bad days. You girls are the best. I LOVE YALL!
