Everything I am Packing For Our Wedding & Honeymoon

August 28, 2024

Hi Friends!!

I cannot believe we're here. I'm becoming a WIFE!!! And I truly don't care about the label of a 'wife' nearly as much as I care about being deeply and wholeheartedly committed to the man of my dreams. I love him so much it hurts. Truly, some days, I get annoyed because of how much I love him; I love our relationship, and I couldn't live without him now.

I hope that you know just how possible it is for you to find true, deep, unconditional love. DO not settle. Do not fall into the trap of thinking you can't get any better. Stay in your worth and self-respect, and you'll be with a man who treats you like a queen and has so much respect for you. Do not tolerate anything less than.

This, by the way, doesn't mean that relationships don't have their ups and downs. Of course, they do. There are some days where I'm like, GAHHHHH!!! And that's just part of living, loving, and working with someone 24/7 (cause we have the added layer of working together....love to make things just that much more of a lesson for myself!!!). Anyway, there are a ton of podcast episodes that you can tune into so that you, too, can have the man of your dreams or cultivate your dream relationship with the man that you're already with.

Whilst I'm away for 6 weeks on our trip (if you have no idea what I'm talking about, read this IG post here), I figured that you'd be asking my assistant via my Instagram Dm's where my clothes are from, wanting skincare links, etc. because it's the usual these days😂

So, I'm getting ahead with providing you with some of the links to outfits, skincare that I've been using regularly prior to the wedding, and supplements that I'm packing with us. Seriously, we need a whole suitcase just for the supplements.

Supplements:

LMNT for hydration and minerals
Omega 3's
Vitamin C
Supergreens (cause my diet will consist of gelato, pizza, pasta, and then some Italian grilled veggies on the side)
Prenatal (this is my recommended one, and then you need to add choline on top; you can listen to this podcast episode here for more details)
Some personal ones are based on the in-depth blood test that I found out I was low in

Skincare:

Moisturizer + heavy moisturizer for sun days and travel days
Face Oil
Red Light Device (I also use this on my knee after wearing heels for a few hours) Use Code MonicaYatesHealth for $260 off
La Prunier Face Oil - I use this in the mornings on my face whilst doing gua sha or facial cupping
Vitamin C serum
Sun Ritual Sunscreen
Body butter to keep my skin silky soft (Use code MY10)

Makeup:

You can see more of my favorites here!!

Outfits:

On our pre-wedding moon and honeymoon, my outfits are all about embracing the effortless elegance of summer in Europe. Linen and cotton are my go-to fabrics for the heat, and I opted for my usual array of colours. I like to stand OUT, not fit in ;)

Each look was carefully chosen to match the dreamy, luxurious vibe of our special getaway!!

Unfortunately, many of the looks you'll see me wearing in IG posts, stories, etc., are no longer available, but I've linked below some of the looks that are still available! I shop a lot at Zimmerman and Revolve. I'm a quality over quantity woman and prefer to buy timeless pieces that I can wear year after year to build out my wardrobe instead of always having to donate clothes because they go out of fashion.

100% of my swimwear is from Monday Swimwear, including my cute hat!
