July 17 (UPI) -- Mom-to-be Jade Roper celebrated at her baby shower with several fellow Bachelor alums over the weekend.
The 30-year-old Bachelor in Paradise Season 3 star was fêted by Carly Waddell, Becca Tilley, Ashley Iaconetti, Kristina Schulman and other friends Sunday ahead of the birth of her first child with husband Tanner Tolbert.
Roper is pregnant and expecting a baby girl with Tolbert, whom she married in January 2016. Iaconcetti and Bachelor producer Lindsay Liles were among those to share photos from the star's shower on Instagram.
"Jade is my first friend to ever be pregnant. I'm in total awe of this woman. She gets more beautiful inside and out everyday. #babyjanner," Iaconcetti wrote.
"Congrats @jadelizroper and @tanner.tolbert! I can't wait to meet Baby Janner," Liles added.
People reported Roper and her guests enjoyed a sit-down brunch at The Garland hotel in Hollywood, Calif. The party featured a bar with "poptails," or champagne with popsicles.
"I feel very blessed that all my friends and family were able to make it and take time out of their busy schedules to celebrate such an important time in mine and Tanner's lives," Roper told the magazine. "It could not have been a more perfect day!"
Roper competed for Chris Soules' affections on The Bachelor Season 19 before meeting Tolbert on Bachelor in Paradise Season 3. The couple shared photos from their babymoon in Hawaii last week.
