Justin & Stephanie's Rehearsal Dinner!

September 11, 2015 ~ It's finally time for Justin and Stephanie's rehearsal dinner! We have been waiting for this weekend for a long time and it's finally here! I can't wait to jump in and help make their special day absolutely perfect especially after many months of planning but first we've gotta practice!

So weddings now days are slightly different then they were 18 years ago.... Now the bridal party and family meet at a restaurant and not necessarily do the formal rehearsal. (The venue that Justin and Stephanie picked had a wedding  tonight so they couldn't go anyway) They had this dinner at Jack Stack's in Kansas City and the food was excellent! 

It was nice getting to meet Justin's family and everyone that would be in the wedding. These two little love birds are pretty lucky to have an amazing set of family and friends ready to make a memorable day tomorrow!

Momma and her girls!

Pretty sure this happy bunch is excited!

Justin and Stephanie wanted to give their mothers something really nice. It was really sweet to see them think of their mothers when giving gifts out to the bridal party and they did an awesome job of surprising them both!

They bought them necklaces from Hawaii with their names on them and a little diamond on the top. On the back it has J+S 9-12-15
(Sorry for the not so good photos)

I think the momma's loved them! 

Stephanie gave each bridesmaid (and her wedding coordinator... that's me) a beautiful Kate Spade bracelet to wear for her wedding! Thanks!

I was trying to get one quick selfie of us and then my sister jumps in and this happens....

That girl ain't right! So much fun and I'm pretty sure Brandon loves it! 

Time to head back to the hotel and get some shut eye before the big day tomorrow!
