So this is the story of my bachelorette weekend with my girlfriends. I regularly post online, call me someone who likes to write for the fun of it, but here goes – LIZ M.
I went to bed before 10pm on Friday night since I was so beat from the week. I wanted to be rested for my busy Saturday. I slept like a freaking rock and woke up at 8am ready for the day! I did my early kickboxing class with some friends and felt refreshed for the day!
Then I headed into downtown Portsmouth, NH to get my hair cut at the salon. I wanted to look my best for girl’s bachelorette party. I love Cyndi who cuts my hair, but didn’t love that she had gone up in price AGAIN. I’m going to have to start going back to Maine to get my hair done… it’s about a third of the price!
Sheila and I carpooled to NH for Christy’s Bachelorette party. Christy’s fiancé has a beautiful, huge home in Hampton, NH so we all met up there to have apps and cocktails before dinner. After that we snacked a bit, we had Christy open all of the lingerie gifts we brought her. This was a really fun idea and it was nice that some people bought practical items and some bought silly ones 😉
Then came the surprise. A male stripper dressed up like a pizza boy showed up at the door! We really had no plans to have our main course (dinner) until we got back to Portsmouth so why were we having pizza? We didn’t know what to think until we saw his portable radio. Then he pulled the bachelorette out and sat her in a chair in the living room and started stripping!
Not only was it fun, but he was hot! So would I see a male stripper again? I’m not sure but it was something we will talk about FOREVER!
Before the driver came, we took a few pictures of all of us with the Male dancer. A few shots of his buns, chiseled abs and some group shots with the bachelorette was a great way to top off the event.
The bridal party then headed back to Portsmouth to eat at our favorite restaurant. They set up a fixed prix menu for us… made the decision so much easier! I went with the Haddock and it was delicious and felt really light and healthy. Perfect meal for a night when you’re going out!
We told our server about our male stripper back at the house. So we showed her some pictures of him and then she chuckled back. She said she knew him??!! Weird!
The girls all got fun cocktails, Amy got a fun beer flight, but I was boring and stuck to Chardonnay! We had Margs and Sangria before we left the house, so that was my fill of fun drinks 😉
Then came party time! Like we have not partied already? LOL. There were so many places to go out by the water there. After Rachel’s wedding (which was a blast) we went back to some of the same bars the night after.
Bars close at 1 so we had our driver get us around 12:45 and immediately snacked on all the apps leftover from before dinner. I hate drunk eating, but when you’re with all your girls and rehashing the night, it makes it worth it 🙂
Thanks for such a fun night ladies! Christy, without you booking a male stripper at our bachelorette party in New Hampshire, we surely wouldn’t of had such a great talking piece! Great choice for an already well planned itinerary!
