Bridesmaids & Moms
Everything you need in one place. Thank you for standing beside me. This page is just for you.
Before the Big Day
Wednesday: Jack and I get to town around midday and head to the venue to drop a few things off.
Thursday: Open — no official plans yet.
Friday: The day is yours until mid-afternoon. I'll start getting ready for the rehearsal around 2:00. Makayla is doing my hair and will swing by around 2:00/3:00. You're all welcome to get ready with me if you'd like, but if you're coming into town Friday afternoon, there's no pressure at all. Here's the evening:
Significant others who aren't needed at the rehearsal can meet us at Silver Harbor at 6:00.
Friday night: Jack will be at his own hotel and I'll be in my own room. Claire, Callie, and Erika — come get un-ready with me after Silver Harbor for a little girls' night in! Drop your toiletries and PJs in my room before we leave for the rehearsal (around 4) so they're waiting for you. Let's leave the rehearsal together, wind down at my hotel, and head to your own beds whenever you're ready.
Rest Up
I'll be at the IHG Staybridge Suites on Friday night (in my own room), and Jack and I will share a room there Saturday night.
You're welcome to stay wherever you'd like — our three hotel block options under Travel & Stay are convenient but not required.

The Dresses
You've already got your dresses. Here's the look we're going for. Sadly, Chaos will not be in attendance.
The Finishing Touches
All black: heels, wedges, or sandals, whatever's comfortable. Even though the ceremony is outdoors, you won't have to worry about walking on grass, so wear what you love.
Keep it minimal, and wear whichever metal you love: gold, silver, or mixed.
Nails: Bridesmaids, let's do black nails. Moms, wear whatever color you'd like.
Before the Aisle
Getting-ready outfits: Day-of getting-ready outfits will be provided for the moms and bridesmaids the night before.
Alterations: If your dress needs any alterations, please have them done by November 10.
Steaming: I'll collect your dresses by November 10 and take them to be steamed along with mine in St. Joseph. We'll also have a steamer on site for any touch-ups.
Glam
We're being pampered by Afterglow Studio. Start thinking about the look you want ahead of time, and bring screenshots of anything you love.
Hair
$135
Makeup
$135
Both are optional. Let me know which, if any, services you'd like, and send me a Venmo or Zelle before November 14. No need to worry about tip.
