was a busy busy day for us! We hosted the 3rd annual, “Katelyn James Bridal Spa Day” at the Elizabeth Arden Red Door Spa in Short Pump! This is an event that we look forward to hosting every year! What better way to spend a Saturday than receiving a free spa treatment and then Christmas shopping!? One by one, our brides made it into the RedDoor Spa on Saturday and it was one big reunion! We missed all of our “out of state” brides but they’ll be receiving a special little something in the mail soon! :)
So this is how the spa day works! All of our brides have a chance to make a spa appointment for either a facial, massage or Mani/Pedi combo! The brides come in for their service and while they’re waiting for their appointment, we get to catch up, snack on some goodies and my brides get to meet one another!! It’s SO much fun! 4 hours went by so quickly Saturday morning!! I just love these ladies and I’m SO thankful that they were in our lives this year! Michael and I wish ALL of our couples a very Merry 1st Christmas together as husband and wife!!! A huge thank you to all of the brides that drove in for the Spa day! I hope you were all pampered and treated like queens!! :) Here are a few iPhone pics from our time together!
Thanks for reading!
