Olivia Culpo is almost ready to walk down the aisle!
The model (32) is getting ready to tie the knot with fiance Christian McCaffrey, and on Saturday, May 25, she celebrated their upcoming nuptials with a wedding dinner in Malibu.
Culpo kicked off the event by sharing a “Bridal shower GRWM” video in which she quickly showed off her two white dresses for the celebration, revealing that she was “very late.”

After trying on both—a short, strapless dress and a floor-length dress with puff sleeves—Culpo opted for a longer option to cover the bruises she picked up on a recent bike ride.
She also let McCaffrey, 27, pick out her accessories — even though she’s color blind, as she pointed out.
Later on her Instagram Stories, Culpo took a closer look at her wedding festivities, sharing a look at a table adorned with beautiful flowers and ribbon detailing, plus a picturesque view of the ocean.
She also revealed that the shower was complete with a “bloom bar”, where guests could use a wide variety of flowers to create their own DIY bouquets. It featured cute pictures of Culp and McCaffrey and labeled vases for each guest.

More flowers could also be found outside at the Malibu celebration, where a wall and table made of flowers – blue, pink and white – wrapped around the shower cake – a simple two-tiered confection.

Earlier this month, Culpo spoke with PEOPLE about her upcoming nuptials and revealed the one thing she won’t do when it comes to saying “I do.”
“I know for sure we’re not going to do a first look, so they won’t see me until I walk down the aisle,” she told PEOPLE, adding, “I think that’s a little less common these days.”
The model also previously revealed that she plans to have her dog Oliver play a part in her nuptials, explaining: “I think he’s going to be the ring bearer.”
