Best. Girls. Weekend. Ever. Part 1

Best. Girls. Weekend. Ever. Part 1

April 30th, 2009 @ 2:17 pm by Mrs. Peep Toe

I know the wedding is supposed to be the best weekend ever, but after the bachelorette weekend MOH/Sister Peep planned, there are no other words to describe the weekend.

Let me start by saying that I cringe at the thought of having to drink a shot of tequila. I’d kill my friends if they made me wear a veil with condoms or penis paraphernalia. And I’d run from the room screaming if I had to ’dare’ a guy to give me his underwear, or really, anything else, for that matter.

But I love the idea of spending a weekend with my best girlfriends. While I am not a total girly-girl, I love my girls.

So, here is a recipe for you to have your own Best. Girls. Weekend. Ever.

1. A fun city: Seattle (7 out of 11 of the girls live there or have family there) was an easy choice.

2. An Amazing Hotel: Hotel Andra (amazingly awesome location, rooms, and restaurant)

3. A Fantastic Guest List: Myself and ten of my best girlfriends from high school, college, grad school, and post-school.

4. One request: Go to a Mariner’s Game where they win, of course!!

5. A ’Ladies Who Lunch’ lunch. Requirement for a ’Ladies Who Lunch’ lunch: must be at an off hour—say, 2-ish, and you must order a bottle of wine.

6. Some fabulous shopping time, in which you either purchase something great (like the perfect clutch—yep, that was me) and/or you make someone else purchase something great (like Sister Peep’s slammin’ new gold shoes—to wear to the wedding, of course!!!).

7. Visit a bar that used to be your favorite. Recognize the bouncer. Announce it is your bachelorette party, and have one of your bridesmaids help you reduce the cover from $10 per person to $20 for everyone.

8. Take a picture of something your fiance is totally afraid of and text it to him immediately:

Yes, Mr. Peep is totally afraid of lobsters and crabs. It’s so strange!!

9. Gush over one thing wedding-related. These flowers in Pike’s Place made me want to be a wedding florist in Seattle:

Swoon.

Double swoon.

And that’s just what happened in the first 24 hours of the trip!!! Up next, the big night out!!

Are you having a bachelorette party? Where are you going, and what are you doing?

Uh, all my girls and I stayed at Andra last weekend. It wasn’t a wedding weekend, but we all went to see Bloc Party on Saturday night. If your party was last weekend, I’ll be upset that we didn’t run into you at Lola or the market.

That looks really fun. I’m not really a Bachelorette party kind of girl either. I hope my BM’s don’t try to pull that and plan something more like this

Looks like you had an awesome time! We’re doing something similar but down in San Diego - hanging out by the hotel pool/beach, a festive dinner, and then drinking in the hotel room. My MOH/Sister Grizzly will still be underage, so we’re trying to stay out of the bar scene!

Haha, that looks like so much fun! I’m going to Vegas for my bachelorette which will be a joint party with my man. The first night there will be separate parties and then the last night will be one big party with everyone!
