My Last Day as a Miss

I feel a little bad admitting this, but I hardly saw Mr. Jaguar on the day before our wedding.
Two of my best girlfriends were arriving into Sydney for the wedding, so I kissed him goodbye and headed off to meet them on the Friday morning. I spent the day with them (and my mum and Maid of Honour) getting our nails done at the salon.

Ah, pampering. I usually have fairly average length fingernails, so I decided to splurge on the day and get french tipped acrylics put on. I also snuck in a pedicure while the girls had some fun things done to their nails. And then we waited for everything to dry!

Pretty nails in tow, I headed back to our apartment to pick up all of our wedding goodies and the dress. I gave Mr. Jaguar one last cuddle and made him walk down to the car with us to help us pack it all in… and then we drove away, with him waving us off.
I can’t even tell you how strange it felt leaving him behind. It was seriously weird. The girls drove me to my hotel room for the evening, and we settled in there for a few hours.

Showing just how much space there was in the hotel room.

We had dinner at a beer hall near the hotel, having met up with my little brother and some other wedding guests who wanted to celebrate my last night of Miss-dom.

And after that? Well, we got girly. We chatted. We lazed about. We posed with giant sunglasses.

(Bridal confession: those awesome props? I completely forgot about them on the actual wedding day. Other things I forgot about: our message chalkboards, our toasting champagne for mimosas on the morning of the wedding day, and lots of posed pictures that I didn’t request. Bride brain: it’s a real thing.)
This kind of light heartedness was exactly what I would’ve wanted to do on the night before the wedding. The girls kept me distracted, encouraged my random bouts of giddiness, and made everything perfect.
