Bachelorette Party

This last weekend I gave my best friend Shannon a bachelorette party because her Maid of Honor was too busy to put things together. I only had a week to plan, but it worked out so great! I decided to make it a "Pretty Pretty Princess" Party, just like the game I used to play when I was a little girl. This is the invitation I put together for it. It is an edited version of the front of the game, and I inserted Shannons face into the princess's. This was a big hit!I figured that getting married was a lot like going from a princess to a queen, so I did a little presentation with a crown and sash. It worked out really well for the party. There were games throughout the day/night that you had to win to get jewelry and crowns. It was so much fun. We all met at Shannons house on Lake Washington where we ate lunch and cake and played a "How well do you know Shannon" game. Then we went on a scavenger hunt through tht city where we had to spell out letters from Shannons name. Here is Kari and Lauren making an "R" at the troll.The first team to finish got to wear princess crowns the rest of the night. My team got last because we had no idea how to get to Gasworks park, and traffic was really bad! Here we are spelling a "C" at Kerry ParkFrom there we went to "The Garage" which is a really neat bowling place in Seattle. We had such a blast! We had our own private area to eat and play around and we had enough room for all the girls to bowl 2 full games. Here is Shannon (a little intoxicated) before she started to bowl. Yes, she is carrying a "you-know-what" that her sister gave her to wear around. "Willy" became the mascot of the party.Once we had played a few games we headed out to a dance club called Venom. It was packed full of people, but we didnt mind too much because we got the VIP room! We all danced until 2 in the am and then headed on home. All the girls that attended were a lot of fun, and did a great job helping to give Shannon a good "last single night out".
