Las Vegas: Of Dice and Men

Without any further ado (and a three week delay)...

What do you get when you combine 12 fun-loving ladies, 1 Barbie suite, 1 poolside cabana, 2 tables at clubs, approximately 7 limos, a slew of hot Australian men and countless cocktails?  The most amazingly ridiculous Bachelorette weekend of all time. In celebration of "Caroline's last night on the town before she becomes Mrs. Brown" (one of a few taglines for the weekend), Annie and Mary headed to Las Vegas to party down with Mary's younger sister Caroline and her bridesmaids and friends. We  definitely sent the gorgeous bride-to-be out of singlehood with style.  Here's a photographic journey through some of the shenanigans.... captions by the caption queen herself, the marvelous Maid of Honor (and planner of the whole party weekend!), Mary.

Our digs... the Jonathan Adler-designed Barbie Suite at The Palms. Thank you Diane!


Things took a turn for the crazy en route to the Thunder From Down Under show...

Cheers to Caroline! (ie- Getting ready for an all Australian Male Revue. Yes, please). 


Good show, mates. Good show. ;-) 


Scandalous gift wrap at a scandalous breakfast party. 


Nothing says 'Bachelorette pool party' like crazy sunglasses... it goes without saying that we were a huge hit. 


MTV Spring Break... aka The Palms pool at all times. I'm not sure how to party at this level, nor have I ever seen so many Jersey Shore cast lookalikes in one place. 


Sorry for partying?... The bachelorette took a poolside disco nap. 


Our 22 year friendship has aged prettttty well, if I do say so myself.


12 girls in a limo built to hold 8... if that's not impressive, I don't know what is. 


White sequin dress? check. Bride to Be sash? check. Feather boa? check. She totally looks the part. 


Group pic at Marquee. Please note that I would never be caught dead in this club in NY (well, never again), but it is THE place to be in Vegas!


Bachelorette and Maid of Honor reclining on a sofa, and occasionally demanding, "Veuve Me!"


My own narcolepsy continues to surprise and amaze me. 


Champagne Brunch at The Wynn can be sumarized as such: "Marquee may have won the battle, but we will win the war." -Blaise Peitner


Parting is such sweet sorrow...

  2. During stag parties in Vegas it is tradition to visit at least one of the line-up of strip clubs and get the bachelor a lap dance in each one. see post
