Chris Lane, the 29-year-old Bachelor season 20 winner, and Lauren Bushnell, the 34-year-old country singer got engaged in June.
The engagement came less than a year after they began dating and two years after she and show star Ben Higgins ended their engagement and broke up.
On Saturday, Bushnell and Lane celebrated their upcoming nuptials at a bash at Cuddle Creek Farm in his hometown of Kernersville, North Carolina, thrown by the groom-to-be’s mom.
The party was held in a barn and featured rustic decor, including a burlap banner that read, “Chris + Lauren Have Big Plans,” about the song he wrote for her when he proposed.
Bushnell wore an off-the-shoulder Bono-style mermaid dress and strappy sandals and Lane sported a black T-shirt and matching pants.
“Got to celebrate all weekend long in Chris’ hometown with our family, friends, and dogs,” Bushnell wrote on Instagram.
“At one point I even glanced at Chris and said ‘I hope we were just getting married tonight!’ I woke up this morning still smiling only to find out my fiancé has the #1 song in country music! I am so proud of you @iamchrislane!!
So many hardworking people behind this song, including all the radio stations playing it and we are so grateful we get to continue celebrating…thanks for all the love & support.”
Bushnell documented their distinctive day on her Instagram Stories. She revealed that Lane’s mother had thought out the entire fall-themed party.
There was even an s’mores station for guests to make their version of the sweet campfire treat.
She captioned a picture with her future mother-in-law with “Chris’ sweet momma put the entire party together.”
Their siblings were also present at the party as well. Bushnell even joked that many people were dismayed to discover that Lane has a twin brother, Cole. Her little sister, Mollie, also flew across the country to make it to her sister’s special celebration.
