May I ask you something, as a Mother of a Groom?
My nephew is getting married in a couple weeks. He was at his parents' house last week, and my sister was all choked up about how soon it won't be the same any more, ever again. It's bittersweet. I wanted to give her a hug, but I'm 1200 miles away. When I go up for the wedding, I'm thinking of taking her a little present to say that, even among all the young women, she is still beautiful (her husband has relatives who compete in beauty pageants, and I get the feeling that she is under a lot of pressure about her looks). Do you think that's a good idea/is that something MoGs think about?
Because I'm not only a loving sister, but also cheap (and spending money on airfare for my family, presents for the couple, etc), this is what I'm thinking of. https://www.softsurroundingsou.....lace_cami/
What do you think?

Thank you SO much for sharing your updates with us, CJ!

Everything looks supremely lovely. If everything else about the wedding comes together half as well, it'll be a smash hit all around!

It all looks perfect, CJ! Thanks for sharing your decisions with us. I love the blue nail polish for toes and silver for fingernails. What a lot of planning and work you are doing. I hope you enjoy the fruits of your labor and the whole event!
