Summer, aka wedding season, can get very busy. Even if you only have a few weddings on your calendar, there are a lot of pre-wedding festivities for each couple, like the engagement party, the wedding shower, the rehearsal dinner, and so on.
Of all of the pre-wedding related events this summer, I think I would have to say that my favorite was my BFF Cari's bachelorette party. It was fun and Portland-y and an all around good time (good clean fun too). She planned it out herself--happy hour at Bartini (martinis and fondue!), then Brewcycle (a group bike tour of three breweries), and then snacks and drinks at her place. It was awesome and everyone had a blast. And then the next morning my BFF and I went out for breakfast :)
There were a few gifts that I wish I'd had the foresight to buy for my BFF for the party:
-A point and shoot camera, like this Panasonic Lumix! She only had a dSLR, which takes great pictures, but doesn't fit in a purse or pocket very well! Good for the party, and good for golf or hiking with her husband, and good for races :)
-Her favorite cupcakes from Cupcake Jones on a tiered serving plates! (Coincidentally, they're my favorite too...) The cupcakes wouldn't last too long, but the plates would be good for the annual 3rd of July Party that she and Eric host!
-A Keurig! After a night of martinis and brews, we definitely needed a bit of coffee in morning.
