Gwen Stefani was showered with love by her family ahead of her wedding to Blake Shelton.

The "Rich Girl" singer's family surprised her with a bridal shower Thursday to celebrate her upcoming nuptials with Shelton, 44, this summer. Stefani, 51, documented the intimate celebration on her Instagram Stories Friday, sharing several photos and clips.

"I got kidnapped by my family to celebrate that I’m getting married!" she said in a video post while showing the family members present at the celebration, including her sister Jill, sister-in-law Jen and niece Stella.

Stefani wrote "feeling loved, feeling blessed" over a flower arrangement with red and orange roses in another post.

The singer was also given a present by her family that was wrapped in white paper with pink polka-dots and tied with a green vine-like string and a pink gauze bow. The gift included a white card that read, "For the Bride to Be."

In a video, the No Doubt vocalist revealed the inside of the card, which had the message, "Wishing you all the happiness that your heart can hold...Today Tomorrow Always! All our love, Mom, Jill, Jen, Stella and Alison. We love you very much!"

The card also indicated that Stefani's family followed wedding tradition by giving her something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue.

The "something old" was a copy of the mass booklet from her parents Patricia and Dennis' wedding on June 11, 1966, at the Saint Boniface Church in Anaheim, California. The words "something new" appeared next to a drawing of the present.

In the card, "something borrowed and blue" was jotted down next to a small plastic bag that appeared to contain a necklace with a blue pendant.

Shelton and Stefani got engaged in October last year after five years of dating. The two met in 2014 when Stefani became Shelton's co-star on "The Voice."

In April, the bride-to-be shared some details about her upcoming wedding to Shelton during an appearance on "Late Night With Seth Meyers." According to the "Hollaback Girl" singer, they plan to keep their big day simple but fun.

"We're keeping it very simple. Really simple," Stefani said. "It's going to be fun. We're going to make it really fun, but it's not going to be a big [event]. It's not like the queen and king are getting married or something like that."

Last month, Shelton also shared the first song that he and Stefani plan to dance to as husband and wife when he appeared on "The Tonight Show Show Starring Jimmy Fallon."

"It's 'If You Leave' from the Pretty In Pink soundtrack," Shelton shared. "We talked about this. We both love the song. We're both fans of the '80s, why not? Don't you think that would be a great one, though? We've literally talked about that."
