It was the baby shower of Marissa Lawrence’s “dreams.”
On Sunday, the pregnant wife of Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence reflected on Saturday’s intimate affair, when loved ones celebrated her and the couple’s baby girl-to-be at an outdoor gathering.
“Yesterday I got to have the baby shower of my dreams,” Marissa began on Instagram. “Thank you everyone who came out and celebrated me and baby girl. She is already so loved and I couldn’t be more proud to know such amazing, beautiful women!! They say it takes a village & I’m so grateful for mine! I love you guys and thank you for making this day truly so special.”
Themed “Baby in Bloom,” the soiree featured a flower truck that allowed guests to build their own bouquets, a brunch spread of bagels, sandwiches and cupcakes and an outdoor bar.
Marissa, who first announced in June that she and Lawrence, 25, are expecting their first child, also added a wicker baby carriage from her early days in Jacksonville to the decor.
“I bought this the first year living in Jax at an antique shop to use for my baby shower one day!” Marissa exclaimed in an Instagram Story on Saturday.
“I always knew I wanted to do ‘baby in bloom’ and this was the perfect detail to add. I can’t believe it’s 3+ years later and I’m finally using it to celebrate becoming a mom and showering baby girl! So special.”
Marissa and Lawrence landed in Jacksonville in 2021 when the former Clemson quarterback was taken No. 1 overall in the NFL draft that year.
The couple, who tied the knot in April 2021, has endured roller-coaster seasons with the Jaguars, including this year with the team at 2-7.
Lawrence, the recipient of a five-year, $275 million contract extension in the offseason, is currently grappling “with a significant AC joint sprain” that only impacts his left shoulder, NFL.com reported Sunday.
The report detailed how “the injury can make throwing and simply functioning difficult.” Lawrence sustained the hit in last week’s 28-23 loss to the Eagles.
Lawrence will not play against the Vikings on Sunday, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, with backup Mac Jones getting the start.
Jones, a fellow first-round pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, was traded to the Jaguars by the Patriots in March.
Kickoff is slated for 1 p.m. ET in Jacksonville.
