The Bridal Apocalypse Where Everyone Dresses as the Bride

Share

Newport Harbor Bridal Shower

The bridal apocalypse

The bridal apocalypse in all its glory. What could be better than a day on a boat where everyone dresses as a bride along with you?  These lucky ladies spent the day on Full Circle. A beautiful 76’ yacht servicing Long Beach & Newport Harbor. 

This beautiful bride, Carissa, (who’s also a nurse and a yoga teacher) is prepping for her COVID friendly San Clemente, California wedding where grandma will be kept safe and have the best seat in the house up on the balcony. On her actual wedding day, Carissa will be wearing Ines di Santo and Jamie B. Photography will be there photographing every detail. 

I Wore my Mom’s Wedding Dress

Newport Harbor Bridal Shower

Finally, a bridal shower I could get on board with, literally. Slipped on my mom’s dress from the 80s (those puffy sleeves are making a comeback). No games, no sitting in a circle making that noise when you open another baking sheet (this year has been hard enough, am I right?).

All The Ladies dressed as brides

Just a bunch of babes dressed as brides getting saucy on a boat… like that Friends episode where they all get drunk in wedding dresses except you all throw yourselves into the sea at the end, ‘twas a perfect ending. I have the absolute best friends and family. You all make my heart feel light and I wouldn’t be here without you.

Cheers to all the brides this year that have survived, there may be more masks and rona testing but we are somehow unsinkable. 🍾
