Top 10 (+1) Final Fling Before The Ring

This past weekend we celebrated Aimee's last few weeks as a single gal together. We rented this little studio in Venice and pretended to be tourists for a few days. Our time was full of great memories. I enlisted Bridesmaid #2 (Melissa) and Bridesmaid #3 (Grace) to narrow the highlights down to the top 10 (+1). And here they are in somewhat of an order but not really:

1. Aimee's quest to find the bathroom at Islands. YES, the Islands in the Marina that we have grown up going to. Yes, that same Islands.
2. After the 9th re-take, "At some point you have to accept that it's the faces that are the problem."
3. Bridesmaid #4's (who will remain nameless) marriage advice + more. Great lessons for all of us. I think...
4. Nightly fashion show. We done good for a girl, all I'm say'in.
5. Realizing that because of this weekend one of us will make it big and be hugely rich and famous. We went to eat at Huckleberry Cafe and randomly they were being filmed for the Cooking Channel. Somehow they asked us to do food segments for them and before you know it we spent the next hour stuffing our faces with pastries and telling the camera how "amazing it is".
6. Melissa taking a HUGE leap of faith and choosing a different color nail polish at the Pedi Salon. Just call her crazy! (Seriously though, so proud of you girl.)
7. The most wonderful truffles I've ever tasted and vodka chocolates from here. How was this the first time I've heard of these things? If it wasn't a whooping $40 for a bag that held like ten chocolates I would have bought one for all of my friends for Christmas. Thank you to the choco girl who happily gave us like $80 worth of samples. Didn't even buy anything out of courtesy. Plleeaaasssee people! I'm from the get-toe! That's how we r-o-l-e.
8. Tory Burch. WHAT.
9. A memorable night spent here. Fabulous place. Fabulous food. Fabulous company. Fabulous toasts. Fabulous Big Band + dancing. My personal weekend favorite.
10. Cruising on our beach cruisers gangsta style. Sorry Gracelle!
11. And to close it out - a simple dinner party and movie screening with some beautiful ladies (and surprise massages for all!)

Thanks for the help #2 and #3. And to the bride, hope you felt crazy loved on because you're crazy loved.
