This weekend I celebrated a bachelorette that will be getting married in 3 weeks! My friend, Amy, will be getting married on 2/2/13 and I am really excited for the first wedding of the year...even if I will be flying solo since Tate has to coach.
I like how as we get older, the bachelorette parties are not so 'over the top' and we stay away from DT Minneapolis! It was fun 5+ years ago...but not so much anymore for me!
We started out the afternoon by going to a wine tasting at the Buffalo Rock Winery in Buffalo, MN. I was super jealous I was not able to taste any of the wine...but still had fun smelling it and taking pictures!
We were first given a little tour and told how she makes all the wine. She does all the wine making by her self and using only these machines.
It was very interesting to hear how it all happens and it is so much work.
All the girls then were able to taste 7 wines that she makes. There were a few that I smelled that I thought would be so good!
Her place is very cute! Full of wine and a buffalo!
The MOH had made wine glasses with chalk paint @ the bottom so we each got our own to write our name on. I tasted the finest of filtered water...it was delicious!
She also had cute gift items..including the Vikings wine glass that had Christmas lights inside.
After wine tasting, we headed over to a bar and grill where we would eat and open gifts. For those that were drinking the night away...would enjoy there beverages the rest of the evening at this place. It was only a few miles from Amy's home.
The bachelorette & the fabulous cake her sister made....it was so yummy and hilarious!!
Amy got a great variety of gifts...including twister sheets that her mom made! She also received a stray jacket from her hospital co-workers...haha!
Katie & I with the bachelorette!!!
I had lots of fun...even being pregnant! I left the bar and headed home before it got too late. I made it home in time to see the Packers lose :) and hit the sack well before midnight!
Look forward to Amy's wedding in a few weeks!
FUN! :) I love the idea of going to a winery for a bachelorette party! So cool!
ReplyDeleteA winery is such a good idea! I agree, downtown MSP is fun every once in a blue moon!
ReplyDeleteSo fun!! I think I will have to check out that winery, always looking for new ones :)
