This Bachelorette weekend seems to have an overwhelmingly large amount of photos so I'll try to keep my babbling short. My sisters planned this perfect vintage inspired weekend. We went to the lake and it was such a great break right before the wedding.
Almost as soon as we got there, we went out on the boat to our dinner reservation at Barnharts (restaurant and bar that is boat accessible which meant it wasn't super handicapped accessible for Mads but she rocked it).
Somehow Tor ended up being the only one rocking the red lip.
Sash repurposed.
All weekend life long, wardrobe decisions went through STB and all footwear was purchased by or belonging to her, my sisters learned and loved having a personal stylist. New Magee motto; WWSW: What Would Shannon Wear.
Barnharts, the service was pretty bad and the drinks pretty weak, but we had the best time.

And the ride home at the end of the night included one pretty dark dance party. My biggest regret is not getting a picture of our nautical chauffeur. My biggest failure is not having pictures of this dance party. You live and you learn.
The next morning's brunch included mimosas, as all brunches should.
And the adorable glasses gifted by my in-laws.
The weekend set-up: alcohol, cake pops, muffins/ cupcakes, popcorn. What a girl wants, what a girl needs, whatever makes you happy sets you free.
And Torey's game of the morning, she went above and beyond her MOH duties to put on this fantastic weekend.
Saturday was a big day, we went tubing down the natural lazy river in Ludington after crafting our vintage headbands. We, smartly filled up all the tubes before going to the State Park and then deflated many of them in order to fit people in the car. I use the word "fit" loosely.
And tubing! We all strung ourselves to Maddies boat of a raft (necessary so her cast didn't get wet) which made our voyage even more of a lazy ride for most. Except for Liz and I who were at the front and in charge of making us move more quickly or steering us away from a stump, and every time we did that, Shannon held our drinks. If not double, the girl was triple fisting.
Halfway down the river we discovered many holes in Maddies raft which we needed to save because of her leg and because of the cooler. So we were so glad we had brought the trusty pink duct tape! And the tube pump because every 40 minutes we'd give it another hit of air. Always classy, what can we say?
The tubing adventure lets out at Lake Michigan so we all headed to the beach with the cooler from the car for lunch. We ate our sandwiches and passed out almost instantly. None of us remember falling asleep and no one can tell you how long we slept but we all had pretty hearty naps. Which called for some solo shots.
Somehow Meg's picture was deleted, sorry babe.
Dinner consisted of all of my favorites; hot dogs, pasta salad, watermelon, rum and diet, a beautiful view and these lovely ladies. Seriously I love it all!
They gifted Tim and I a spiritual bouquet of firsts wine and I am proud to inform that we have only gone through two thus far, First fight remains corked.
And more of Torey's perfect games. Who said what, a facebook quiz and wedding charades which we turned into Fish Bowl/ Celebrity for obvious reasons.
Seriously, every detail was perfect and so well thought out. Every moment was one worth remembering and documenting so thanks for bearing through this insanely long post. These women are the most special to me and I would not want my last weekend of bacheloretteness to be with anyone else.
Omg I forgot about how hard we passed out on the beach -- best nap of my life. Also how Maddie's float kept deflating
