Theresa Nist rocks wedding style ahead of her big day!

In new photos shared by her fiance, The Golden BachelorGerry Turner, the bride-to-be rocked a glamorous look for what appeared to be an intimate dinner party with Turner and their blended family ahead of the couple’s nuptials live on January 4 on ABC.

The photos show Nist, 70, wearing a metallic ombre midi dress with silver sequins on the top and gold sequins on the skirt.

The sleeveless mirrored number also features pastel floral appliques at the bottom, adding a playful element to the dress.

Nist gave her ensemble an Old Hollywood flair by teaming it with a mauve faux fur baton and gold heels.

Turner, 72, went classic with a twist by teaming a maroon blazer with a pink button-down shirt, jeans and trainers.

“What a wonderful day on the eve of our wedding. But January 4th is a BIG DAY. I’m so excited,” Turner captioned a post shared Thursday ahead of the couple’s live wedding special broadcast on ABC.

But Nist didn’t wear just one look for the celebration.

The family’s Turner carousel Instagram snap shows Nist wearing a black zip-up jacket, olive green pants, and white heels (presumably her bridal shoes!) at what appears to be their ceremony location in Southern California earlier in the day.

Nist was seen in the same olive green ensemble, albeit with cool kicks, in an Instagram reel shared by the ex The Golden Bachelor contestant, Faith Martin.

The video features the fiancées having fun with Martin, as well as some of the season’s favorite ladies, plus famous faces from Bachelor and Bachelorette Nation, including Charity Lawson and Brayden Bowers.

Perhaps Nista’s pre-wedding look hints at what’s to come from her wedding ensemble.

In an exclusive interview with PEOPLE four days before her wedding, Nist revealed that her dress was “traditional and modern,” but admits that it was “really not what I imagined I would be wearing.”

Her daughter, daughter-in-law and colleague The Golden Bachelor contestants Susan Noles (who will officiate the wedding) and Kathy Swarts helped her choose a dress to wear down the aisle.

“I got these incredibly beautiful dresses from Badgley Mischka and I was blown away,” says Nist. “I asked each of these beautiful women to pick their favorite. And then I chose three of my own and went down the stairs with them. And as for the dress, they unanimously thought this was a good dress. I think Susan was so proud because I chose it!”

Although Turner originally thought about wearing a blue suit to the wedding, “We talked one night and came to the conclusion that a black tuxedo would look a little more formal,” he says. “And there I go, black tuxedo.”
