Party Time

This past weekend was my bachelorette party! I really wanted it to be a surprise so up until we left my house on Saturday I had no idea what we were doing. When I talked on the phone with Bridesmaid "W" the Wednesday before, she told me, “I hope you have fun. I guess this will be a testament to how well we know you or not!” They definitely know me well. It was perfect!

We headed out around noon on Saturday and went to Breaux and Tarara vineyards in Virginia. My bridesmaids got me a personalized wine glass for the tastings with my name, wedding date, and "Bride to Be" on it. Plus it is all in my wedding colors. We had a great picnic lunch at Breaux and sampled all 11 of their wines. Tarara was next, which didn’t have as nice of an ambiance but served really yummy wines.

Dinner was at Hook in Georgetown. The food was amazing! It was also really neat that they only serve fish caught using sustainable practices. The waiter was very knowledgeable about the fish they serve and the morals of the restaurant.

The night ended at a hotel suite in Greenbelt. We stayed up late playing Settlers of Catan and chatting. My bridesmaids even brought cookies and zucchini bread as dessert. As I said before, it was perfect.
At Hook!

Later this month is my shower and next weekend is a friends wedding. This will be a month of parties!
