Five Fun Shirts For The Wife-To-Be

A Bride On A Budget received one of these Fun Shirts For The Wife-To-Be items for review.

Getting married is fun. You get engaged, which is always a fun story to tell. Then you plan the wedding, which is one of the hardest and stressful, but most rewarding, tasks you'll endure in your life.

And then you're married.

And what people lose sight of is the actual marriage. Yes, you should plan a wedding, but you need to plan for your marriage. You need to remember that the reception is a party but the commitment you make is important. Really important.

That part is fun too. Trust me. It's nice to have a husband and to be someone's wife. That's what the engagement and wedding lead to. So instead of filling your closet with items that say bride and bride-to-be, fill it with a word that's less fleeting: wife. If you're a wife -- or a bridesmaid of a wife-to-be -- you'll love this. I picked out five really fun shirts for the wife-to-be.

And, just an idea: Any of these would be super fun to pack and bring on the honeymoon!

Five Fun Shirts For The Wife-To-Be

1. Happy Wife Happy Life Tee
2. The Mrs. Tank Top
3. Trophy Wife T-Shirt
4. Married AF Tank Top
5. Off-Shoulder Wifey Tee

Happy Wife Happy Life Tee

Pete and I joke about the "Happy wife happy life" rhyme, but it's true. It's also true that if you have a happy husband you have a happy life, but that doesn't flow as well.

I would actually pick this Happy Wife Happy Life tee up as a joke, but there is more truth in it than a wife-to-be might realize. I also saw a version of it for men, and that's actually really funny.

The Mrs. Tank Top

I love this The Mrs. Tank Top. The font is beautiful, and I'm a huge fan of razorback tank tops. If you're not, though, you can get it in t-shirt form too.

You can get this top in 13 different colors, so I would suggest buying it in your wedding color. That way, you can wear it in the future, but still be reminded of your wedding.

Trophy Wife T-Shirt

I'm laughing so hard at this Trophy Wife t-shirt that it would be doing this post a disservice to not include it. And hey, maybe your friend is a trophy wife. Nothing wrong with that.

The term started with bad connotations, and they might still linger, but there's nothing bad about your husband treating you right and being proud to have you around -- and that's what I think part of a trophy wife is (a modern one, anyway).

Married AF Tank Top

I really don't curse hardly ever, but I do text AF every now and again. Sometimes, it just fits. And it fits on this Married AF Tank Top.

It's definitely for someone who is a little more relaxed. And, honestly, don't we all need to be a little more relaxed in life. No one needs to be so serious all the time.

Off-Shoulder Wifey Tee

I got a chance to check out the Off-Shoulder Wifey tee from Fox Blossom. I'm in love with it. The letters are screen printed on some of the softest and most comfortable fabric I've ever worn. And, honestly, that's how marriage is. It's really comfortable. 

That's how it should be. It's work (just like Ben Affleck said in that speech when he won some award for Argo that may or may not have actually cost him is marriage ... ), but it's also comfortable.

I love personalized wedding items. They're really cute and great for photos. But they can end up being one-time use items (I have a bridesmaid robe that has been stuck in my closet since my cousin's wedding day). Something like a Wifey tee, it's a one-lifetime use item. And that's a lot more than once.
