Last
weekend 11 lucky girls met up in Kiawah Island for the best bachelorette party
of our lives. All weekend we sipped cocktails, sunbathed, danced, ate amazing
meals, walked the beach, relaxed by the pool and celebrated our bridey!
Most of us took Friday off
to get to Charleston early. On the way there, our car full of girls stopped at
the outlets and snagged some great finds! Afterwards we headed to our resort,
The Sanctuary at Kiawah Island.

When we arrived
Kristen surprised each of us with a monogrammed iomoi canvas tote, a pair of Lindsay-Phillips Switch Flops,
a personalized tumbler and a monogrammed Haymarket Designs beach towel.
I’ve never been so showered by a bride at her own party! Isn’t she the
sweetest?!
I should also
mention it was our bride’s birthday too! Waiting in her room was a delicious
red velvet cake, a cheese & fruit plate, balloons and champagne from her
mom and mother-in-law!
Dinner on Friday
night was at The Fat Hen. Probably one of the best meals I’ve
had all year.
After dinner we grabbed martinis,
played a few games and showered Kristen with lingerie.

The next
morning a group of us rushed to the pool to get the best chairs available. The
butler service was unbelievable. Our towels were laid out for us, our drinks
were replenished every 15 minutes and the view of our infinity pool and beach
was amazing.
Everyone loved
their towel from Kristen.
How cute is this colorful
picture? We took over an entire pool area all day.

Lindsay all weekend!

After 7 hours of sun we decided to
shower and get ready for our night in Charleston.

Saturday
night we headed into Charleston…
Our first stop was the
rooftop of Stars for a
few drinks.
Dinner was just a few
blocks away at Lucca.
After dinner we
partied with table service at The Cocktail Club where I experienced several
glasses of Dom Perignon for the first time.

Sunday morning was rough for
everyone. Thankfully we had a massive brunch before we all hit the road.
Best weekend ever. I’ve never had
so much fun at a bachelorette party in my life.

How much would you say you paid for the weekend over all? I'm planning my best friends bachelorette party and am trying to budget; this sounds exactly like something she would want to do!

I am planning an almost identical bachelorette party for my sister next week!! So I have a question for you.. I am also planning on going to Charleston for the nightlife aspect of the weekend. How did you all manage to get back to Kiawah after Stars, Lucca, and the Cocktail club? Did you just have DD's?

Some great thoughts, and I'll certainly take it onboard with my writing. I can't help but think you should take a look at a film called 'Freedom Deep' when talking about 'Book of Eli'. The Denzel film shares a staggering amount of similarities to this independent Australian film, particularly the main characters and themes. Hell, even a lot of the shots and scenes are familiar! Keep up the good work, this blog is worth its weight in gold!Accounts Software For Small Business papers-for-sale
