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!!

Activewear is one of my favorite things to shop for, and a category of clothing that I basically live in because it’s comfortable, practical, and super cute! But it can also get pretty pricey. And if you’re anything like me and have a tendency to buy more than you could ever possibly wear (it’s just so hard to say no!!) then you know how quickly you can deplete your bank account…whoops. Luckily, Walmart has a huge selection of activewear that is adorable and affordable. We’ve picked out some of our favorites from the men’s and women’s collections below.
Women’s Activewear
Yoga, running, cycling, weight lifting, or Pilates – whatever your go-to workout, Walmart has an outfit for you. Leggings and a stylish tank top are great for a group fitness class, while highwaisted leggings with a high impact sports bra and baseball cap are perfect for an early morning run. Biker shorts and a cropped tank-style sports bra are the ideal duo for your spin class or putting in a few miles on your road bike. These outfits are also wonderful options for running errands or vegging on the couch…no judgement here!
