I had two bachelorette parties during October. I never miss out on a reason to celebrate with the girls. :)

The first bachelorette party was to Orlando, Florida to visit Disney and the new Harry Potter theme park.

These were the special “Owl Post” Harry Potter invitation packs:

Each “Owl Post” had a Harry Potter Eye mask, luggage tags, theme park lanyards and a schedule of the weekend.

and a close up of the lanyards/luggage tags:

We had such a great time in Orlando. The icing on the cake was finding out from Chris that I had passed the Tennessee bar exam while at Disney Hollywood Studios! W00000T! Once Disney cast members found out they made me a celebratory cake and I got a golden Fast Pass to use on any ride! Disney is so magical! What an unforgettable trip.

Sorry I don’t have many pictures of Harry Potter world because it was damp and rainy the entire time. But we all looked super cute in our rain gear :)

We also went to Medieval Times while in Orlando. I couldn’t resist the opportunity to sew princess dresses in less than 72 hours. I love a challenge! People actually thought we were part of the show = WIN!

and our knight (who also won!) bestowed me with a sash:

As if one Bachelorette party wasn’t enough, I flew to Seattle to visit my Future Sister, Dana, for part 2 later that month.

It was amazing! Dana showed me around downtown, Bainbridge Island (I found a quilt shop) and we went on a Duck tour. We did tons of shopping (i.e. Nordstrom Rack) and ate some very tasty food. Nom.

Speaking of delicious noms, this is a gluten free monster cookie from a bakery in Pike Market. I need to move to Seattle to be near this cookie permanently :) Thank you #Future Sister for a fabulous time!

A big thank you to everyone who made all of this possible! What a way to celebrate our upcoming marriage and becoming an official attorney with parties in two states. I am so blessed to have friends like ya’ll :)
