It seems like someone we know is always getting married. Whether you’re a loyal member of the bride tribe or the blushing bride-to-be, honoring the big day consists of a lot more than just the wedding ceremony. From the bachelorette party to the bridal shower, planning memorable pre-marriage celebrations doesn’t have to be stressful! See our bridal celebration ideas below.
If you’re looking to plan an epic bachelorette party, why not an adults-only trip to Disney?? Kristy celebrated her sister-in-law’s upcoming nuptials with a weekend in the happiest place on Earth and had a blast! She recommends going without kids to Disney at least once in your life, because the experience is so different when you don’t have to worry about the little ones.
Make sure you grab matching magical tees, fun coordinating mouse ears, and, if you really want to get crazy, princess-themed outfits for going out at night!! We all know the bride is royalty, so what better occasion to show off your queenship.
After all of that celebrating, you’re probably going to want a little help recovery. These bachelorette party survival kits make the perfect gift for all the gals! Your bride and bridal party will be as good as new in no time with these essentials.
For a bridal shower, you’re going to want to gift something practical but something the bride wouldn’t necessarily buy for herself. How about this: a mini wine fridge with a customized wine subscription! Who wouldn’t want delicious wines delivered right to their door, especially with all that stress of wedding planning?! Don’t forget your “Miss to Mrs.” banner in case anyone forgot who all those gifts are for.
A “bride” silk robe is a must. Whether she wants to wear it on her wedding day or lounging around her house while she dreams of being the future Mrs., this is one bridal tradition you don’t want to forgo.
Games are a bridal shower must! This ring game is a fun way to get everyone involved and share a few laughs over some healthy competition.
These party favors are perfect for your bridal shower guests! Kiss the miss goodbye with Hershey’s Kisses and champagne lip balm. Pucker up!!

Love is in the air…capture the feeling and bring it into your home with pale pinks, bold reds, and bright whites that will give you major heart eyes and make your space feel extra special this Valentine’s Day. Check out Kristy’s Valentine’s Day home decor below for a little bit of love inspiration.
Wooden Words | Heart Ornaments | Pink Glitter Stems | White Glitter Stems | Pillow
This artificial tree was Kristy’s kids’ Christmas tree and instead of taking it down, she decided to keep it up and decorate it for each holiday throughout the year! The pink wooden words are from the BluGrainCreations shop on Etsy and now through February 28th, you can use code KRISTY10 for 10% off anything in the shop! The heart ornaments and pink and white glitter stems add a little sparkle to the tree, and the textured hearts throw pillow complements the rest of the neutral decor in her living room perfectly.
Calendar | Lantern Candle | Pillow | Ladder (Decocrated)
An entryway table tastefully decorated with clean, modern pieces makes a lovely focal point in the home. Mixing classic, year-round decor (like this wooden ladder from Decocrated or flip calendar) with holiday decor (like this “love” pillow and sparkly pillar candle) keeps the vibe classy yet adds a touch of fun and makes it easy to change with the seasons.
Wooden Tray | Beaded Garland | Plant | Candle
Fill a wooden tray with a faux plant, favorite candle, and beaded garland for a centerpiece that looks great on any table or shelf.
Top these adorable stacked wooden books with an artificial plant and place them on a shelf or end table for a sweet message to your loved ones.
For those of you with kiddos (or fur babies), this cute wooden sign will show just how much you love your little Valentines!!
Keeping your home smelling fresh and clean is easy with this room spray from Hearth & Hand with Magnolia. Spritz a little in the air to instantly refresh your space with a crisp, woodsy scent. Plus, the bottle looks great on display!
