Here comes the bride! Luvvie Ajayi, author of the New York Times bestselling book I’m Judging You and podcaster, is soon getting married, and her girls made sure to celebrate the good news with a picture-perfect bachelorette trip to the posh Caribbean island of Anguilla.

Luvvie’s besties, including her Jesus and Jollof co-h0st, Insecure star Yvonne Orji, marketing bawse Bozoma Saint John, CurlBOX Founder Myleik Teele, and celebrity hair stylist Felecia Leatherwood, were all serving peak Black Girl Magic in their matching red hot bathing suits. The bride-to-be, of course, slayed in a white one-piece with matching floral veil.

Luvvie announced her engagement back in November 2018 on her Instagram page. “My favorite asked me to do this life thing with him while we were in Paris and I said YES,” she captioned a photo of herself showing off her gorgeous engagement ring with her fiance peeking behind her.
