Erin’s Bachelorette Party

Finally I have time to blog about Erin‘s awesome bachelorette party! I am so excited for this girl to get married in September. So, to celebrate, I organized a bachelorette party in Palm Springs, California. We rented a house with a pool and had so much fun! Here are some of my favorite pics from the weekend:

Here are the fun cups I made for each girl to fit in with our “nautical” theme. In college Erin, Heather, and I made personalized cups for everything, so it seemed fitting to make them again!

I also made each girl a mason jar filled with some yummy treats. I was so happy with how they turned out! (Thanks for your help, mom!)

All the goodies! Erin’s future sister-in-law, Suzanne, brought all of the amazing food. I also made the tissue paper pom poms hanging from the ceiling a la Martha Stewart.

We also had a little lingerie shower for Erin. She got a lot of cute stuff….probably won’t show it all on the blog though!

After the shower we all got dressed and went out to dinner. We had yummy Mexican food and margaritas…can’t go wrong with that!

And of course we had to embarrass Erin just a little. My mom helped me make her a Bachelorette sash and I think it is adorable! She also had a crown and veil courtesy of her sister, Nicole, and a big fake diamond ring that lit up courtesy of me!
Thanks girls for such a fun weekend! Can’t wait for your wedding, Erin!
