What, you've never seen granny panties worn as a bolero?
Make welcome bags for your guests.
My Matron of Honor and my Regulator really went above and beyond for everything throughout the weekend, but this really put their work over the edge: They made welcome boxes, filled with all kinds of crazy bachelorette goodies (penis straws, sheriff name tags, etc…) for each of the guests. They immediately got the girls into the bachelorette spirit.
Relinquish control (even if you're Type A)
Being the control freak that I am, I had a really hard time letting my friends do all the planning, but I'm really glad I did. Before an insane night of dancing at the recently reopened MIXX club (Samantha Ronson was spinning, and she was AWESOME. Sam, if you're reading this, can you please DJ my wedding?!), we took a limo to the Red Square, a kitschy-but-sexy restaurant and vodka lounge. The girls had organized a surprise toast in a private vodka vault that was so cold we had to wear provided fur coats and military jackets inside. Hello great photo opps!
Trying our best to make sexy pouts...didn't end well, clearly.
Two Words: Power Nap
I'm a big fan of the 20-minute nap during most days, and taking one before all the festivities began on Friday night was one of the smartest things I did all weekend. Did I miss a drink or two with my girls? Yes. Was being the first one up and at the pool at 8:30 the next morning worth it? Absolutely.
