Hey guys! As you know, I just moved cross country AND I’m getting married in two months- whew! To say it’s been busy is an understatement. I need a nap. Or six. Seriously. So that’s what inspired today’s post with Mattress Firm!

As you guys know, Cody and I picked this apartment together because it’s going to be our first home when we are married! We really wanted this place to be a reflection of us. We’ve picked out everything that is in this apartment together- the furniture, the decor, and our new mattress. We wanted to find something that worked great for both of us and gave us the best night’s sleep- especially with the wedding coming up, I need sleep now more than ever!

If you follow me on YouTube or Instagram, you know that I was sick a lot these past two months, so I’ve really been trying to get healthy, considering how many wedding-related events are coming up.

My routine: stay hydrated, eat healthy, and get a lot of sleep. I’ve been upping my water intake, getting through a 50oz water bottle a day [keeping it in bottles really helps me keep track / encourages me to actually drink it]. I’ve been loving eating a ton of fruit [especially something like watermelon, because it’s great, refreshing and sweet and has more water in it] I completely cut out added sugars from my diet AND all dairy [which has been super difficult for me because I LOVE CHEESE but I wanted to avoid getting more sinus infections / wanted to be healthier / wanted to feel my best for the wedding!] Another part of feeling my best for the wedding has been getting enough rest. I’ve REALLY been training myself to not be a night owl- to go to sleep by 11pm [ish] and wake up earlier. Upgrading my mattress has also been a HUGE factor in the better sleep I’ve been getting!

We found our new mattress at Mattress Firm– I’m sure you’ve either seen or been to a Mattress Firm location because they are the largest specialty bedding retailer in the country. Their whole mission is to help their customers make the best choice when it comes to their mattress because sleep is such a fundamental part of a healthy lifestyle! We tested out a ton of different mattresses but ended up choosing the Serta SmartReact Lynbrook Plush mattress– we both loved how this one felt! If you’re not sure what type of mattress is best for you, the experts at Mattress Firm can help you choose your perfect match.

If you are getting married, I highly suggest trying out mattresses with your soon to be spouse! It’s super helpful to get something that will give you both a great night’s sleep. Plus, picking out our mattress was a really fun experience. Next to cake tasting, it was definitely my favorite pre-wedding activity we’ve done so far. I mean… laying on a bunch of mattresses and ‘testing out’ napping for ‘research’? I was all about it.

A big thank you to Mattress Firm for partnering up with me on this post and helping me get a great night sleep, every night!
