We started out with dinner and at Jasper’s (one of my favorite restaurants) at Legacy Towne Center, went back to the hotel for more drinking, then headed out to Karma (a club) to “get our dance on”. We stayed at the Hotel InterContinental in one of the executive suites on the top floor - it was literally across the street from the club, so we took a taxi to go out so we didn’t have to assign a designated driver. 

We had a crazy large sampler plate of every appetizer the restaurant makes - Maytag Bleu cheese chips, Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes with Tomatillo-Serrano Salsa and Jicama-Tortilla Slaw, Crispy Calamari with Toasted Orange Soy and Cilantro, and some yummy shrimp thing in grits.

I had the Pan-Seared Copper River Salmon with Grilled Asparagus and Mascarpone Polenta - it was good, but they overcooked it IMO. All of the appetizers were yummy, but I didn’t really like the crab cakes.

I forgot to take a picture before I started eating

My sister’s free-range lemon rotisserie chicken salad that she barely touched because we were all SO full from the appetizers.

My aunt (one of our primary sponsors), me with my fuzzy martini, and my sister after dinner.

me and the bridesmaids (minus my sister) outside of Jaspers

another one of me and my sippy cup - we explicitly said no penis paraphenalia, hence the G-rated sippy cup - LOL.

me and my bridesmaids, D & A - I’ve known D since freshman year of college and we’ve been best friends ever since! A and I go wayyy back - probably since we were in elementary school!

taking a break from all that dancing out on the patio with my lovely bridesmaids

and later that night….

the end of the night - sweaty, hot, disheveled, and tired, but we had so much fun!

Being a bachelorette is definitely fun - you feel all special, you get to wear a veil out on the street, you get free drinks, and hooked up like crazy! Not to mention you get a lot of random marriage proposals from strangers…

Anywhoo…these are just the pictures from my camera, but my bridesmaid, T, has more on hers, so I’ll post them later whenever she gets around to uploading them!
