Arley's Bachelorette: It rains more in Seattle.

I think all Portlanders like to say it rains more in Seattle than Portland. Luckily the weather was perfect the weekend we spent there celebrating my friend Arley's bachelorette. You might remember I shared details from her gorgeous shower a while back. Well, last month we took the show on the road, traveling north up I5 to toast the soon-to-be Mrs. with a weekend filled with sailor hats, pink champagne and a obligatory stop at Glassybaby.

Here are some photos and details from our trip.

Gift bags

The gift bags were filled with fun sunglasses for wearing out, sailor hats (since Arley is marrying a captain), temporary tattoos and mini packs of Advil. One of Arley's bridesmaids is a designer and she created a sweet logo for the weekend that we ironed on canvas tote bags.

Arley got a special sailor hat with gold details and hand-sewn tulle (thank you Hilary!) for her to wear on Saturday night.

Pike Place Market

We rented a cute house in Alki Beach and took the water taxi from Alki to Pike Place Market where we walked around, checked out the gum wall, ate oysters and I bought a teepee. 

I mean, how awesome are these teepees?! Carson went totally nuts for it when I got home. If you want one you can find them online at TPS 4 Kids.

Glassybaby

On our way home on Sunday, I insisted we stop at Glassybaby in Madrona. Did you know they make 500 Glassybabys a day? That place is just amazing. 

P.S. Here are a couple of blurry group photos from our nights out for good measure. Fun times ladies and congrats Arley! Let's do it all over again this weekend at the wedding in Montana!
