sweet home colorado: Wedding Week- Part 2

The Wednesday before the wedding I threw a Bachelorette Party for Mallory. Here is the invite I designed…

We had a fun night celebrating Mallory on one of her last nights as a single lady!

My friend, Alexa, who I actually used to babysit for when she was 4 years old, is actually now all grown up and a makeup artist. This summer she was doing a makeover giveaway on Facebook and I won! So I scheduled it for my sister's wedding day. I wanted to do a trial, so she came over to Mallory's townhouse the afternoon of the Bachelorette party to play with my makeup and make a plan for Friday's big day.

Isn't she beautiful? She is just starting out and she did such a great job! I loved it!

We started the night with wine and apps at Coopershawk.

My mom joined us for a bit before she left to watch my boys so that Mark and my Dad could go out for Bob's Bachelor Party.

The ladies.

We LOOOOOOVE our Lauren! I had so much fun hanging out with her during the week!

Sisters!

One of Mallory's bridesmaids, Jen, they have been friends since Kindergarten.

Bob's sister, Little Abby.

Mallory's Godmother, Pat, she's a ton of fun!

Pat and my mom are cousins and friends.

Opening up some lacy and racy things to fill her lingerie drawer!

I am so thankful that Mallory is surrounded by girls who love and support her.

After Coopershawk, some of the girls came back to Mal's place for a little after party! (Ashley on the right, yep, I used to babysit her too.)

And I baked some yummy cupcakes as well.

As we had dessert, the guys were having the Bachelor Party at Top Golf! Mark loves this place and wishes he could open up one here in Denver. (If only we had a rich investor!)

For those of you who don't know, it's like a driving range and bowling and darts combined.

My Dad swinging.

Bob's turn.

Bob and his brother's: Steve and Joe.

The boys had a great time golfing and then they ended up meeting up with us back at the townhouse. We had so, so, so much fun! Drinking and laughing and there was even an incredible gymnastics feat performed! Splits, splits, splits!!!

We stayed out until 3 a.m. I really couldn't believe it! And sure enough, the little boys were up the next morning at 7. So coffee was a necessity for sure. I let Mark sleep in a bit because later that morning I left again for our girls nail appointment.

Mark was great and had to be on Daddy duty a lot while us girls did wedding stuff.

Later that evening was the rehearsal and dinner.

The bride and her groom.

The soon to be Mr. & Mrs. Tyler C. Johnson arrived that afternoon. We were happy to finally have them there for the fun!

Mark rehearsing his song.

Nolan and Heath had fun practicing walking up and down the aisle.

They did such a great job and were so confident and proud of their job!

Bob's mom made the ring bearer pillows with burlap and she used lace from the flower girl dresses Mallory and I wore in her Godmother Pat's wedding. It was a beautiful and special touch.

Brooks was nervous to go in by himself, but he did a nice job walking down the aisle holding my hand.
