The Bride’s Entourage

by Meghann on January 28, 2012

You can’t have a bachelorette party weekend without coordinating shirts, can you?

Nope. 🙂

I was in charge of the shirts for the weekend festivities; which sounded like a fun job, but ended up being a tad more challenging than originally assumed. The two biggest issues were 1) what should they say and 2) where to print them for a reasonable price.

After googling ‘funny bachelorette shirt ideas’ more times than I’d like to admit, the girls and I decided to keep it simple with Bride’s Entourage on the front and our names and numbers on the back. When combined the numbers spelled out Ashley’s wedding date.

Cute, right?

The shirts almost didn’t happen when I priced out a few custom shirt websites at $30 a shirt – just a tad over what everyone wanted to spend. Instead I found a local t-shirt shop that could print the shirts at $12 a pop. Much better. 🙂

The shirts were a hit!

Even the bride approved! 🙂

Let’s hope they’re a hit at the bar tonight. Free shots? Yes, please! 😉

It’s been a relaxing, gorgeous stay around here.

There was breakfast

Sun time

Hot tub time

Beach time

Lunch time

Phallic cake time

And now it’s dancing time!

We have a list of challenges for Ashley – wish her luck. 😉
