Charleston

So, I finally made it back to Charleston! Since Carolyn's wedding is approaching and she is busy finishing up rotations for school, we decided to bring the bachelorette party to her! (and NONE of us were opposed to having a girls weekend in Charleston!!) Half of us arrived Thursday and the other half arrived on Friday and we had a wonderful weekend of great food, shopping, and celebrating Carolyn tying the knot! Friday night we had dinner at MUSE.  The food was incredible!

After dinner, we bar hopped and ended up at Trio which was a blast...it was like a great college bar downstairs with a fun band and a techno club upstairs. Earlier Katherine had made friends with the bellhop at our hotel and got all sorts of tips so we were able to enjoy the Pedi-Cab ride home with Kat's new friends!

Saturday we headed to the beach at Sullivan's Island and then had a late lunch at Poe's Tavern...another great meal. Afterwards, we headed to the rooftop pool at the hotel to lounge around.

Saturday night we threw a lingerie shower for Carolyn and enjoyed gourmet cupcakes from Cupcake and these adorable cookies that KP made!

After opening all her goodies, we headed to Coast to start our "Mojito Crawl" since that is Carolyn's favorite drink.  We all enjoyed different kinds of mojitos...my favorites were Strawberry Rhubarb and the Mango Mojito. After a few more stops on our Mojito Crawl we ended up at Trio again and danced all night to great live music.


Sunday morning we headed to brunch at High Cotton. KP and I split the crabcakes benedict. I wish I had taken a picture of it because it was incredible! It was served on a slice of fried green tomato and of course, brunch wouldn't be complete without Mimosa's and Bellini's.

After brunch we walked around the market and did some more shopping.  By around 4 it was time to head to the airport so we headed back to the hotel to grab our stuff and take one last picture.

I had the best time and was so glad to get to be a part of the weekend! One night, we were planning everyone else's bachelorette weekends based on locations we all want to visit and came up with (in no particular order) Austin, Vegas, Napa, NYC, and LA....then we all decided we'll start saving now for whoever's next!!!
