Girls Night In!

A Bachelorette Party for Tame, Trendy Girls!!

I don't know about you, but when I think of bachelorette parties alcohol, partying, and going out come to mind. Though that might be the standard, it is by no means the only way to celebrate a woman's last night being single! I recently planned a bachelorette party for my dear friend, Megan (who just got married on 9.10.11) and we had LOTS of fun without any of the aforementioned things. We rented a couple hotel rooms, played some amusing games, and stuffed our faces with delicious treats!

I think my favorite thing about the whole party was seeing a hotel room transform from drab to FAB! It's amazing what a little tissue paper and a LOT of pink can do!


Allllriight. So the pics don't look quite so fab as the actual room did, but ya gotta trust me on this. One thing that did not disappoint was THE FOOD! I love it when food is appealing to the eye, but I love it even more when it's appealing to the stomach! And this food was both! Packed full of sugar and love :-)


Leg Cupcakes! How sexy it that?!?







It's kind of difficult to see, but the water bottle labels say "Love is Sweet." Super cute, free download from Amanda at Kind Over Matter! http://www.kindovermatter.com/2010/02/valentine-fun-with-guest-blogger-jo-ann.html
This was relatively easy to make. (Of course it was! That's the only type of thing that I can make!) Used scrapbook paper for the popcorn cones and I used a cardboard box from Wal-mart that stock comes in for the base. I just cut out holes that were fairly evenly spaced, painted it pink, and stuck a glittery, zebra ribbon on it!


We played some of your typical, silly bachelorette party games How well do you know the bride? Does Megan know her groom? You know, it was really amusing to watch Megan chew about 14 pieces of gum! (She had to chew a piece for each question about Michael that she got wrong. So what if the questions were abnormally difficult? Friends show their love for friends by exercising their jaw through gum-chewing exercises!

***My FAVORITE game of the night was Mad Libs! I loved it so much, I think I'll just share the fun with you, IF you're willing to let your creative juices flow, that is.
