Sometimes bumps in the road really work out, and that’s what’s happened here - due to unforeseen circumstances, the June Lake cabin wasn’t going to work as official party headquarters anymore. So, after some serious internet searching and frantic phone calls, the fates aligned and a rental property with our names on it opened up and…. it’s official -
The beach now for us, ladies, in beautiful Santa Cruz, CA!
Yes, we’re headed to Jody’s old stomping grounds in SC for a weekend of fun in the sun.
The 3-bedroom Opal Cliff Beach House is 5 minutes from the beach and 7 minutes to Capitola Village. It’s got a lovely sunroom, two outside decks, a charcoal bbq, a spa and a relaxing hammock for sleeping off that hangover! See more photos here: http://www.santacruzjoy.com/
So pack your beach gear and meet at the house around 4pm on Friday! Remember that adorable little sundress, too, with those great strappy sandals, ‘cause we’ll be headed into downtown Capitola Friday night after dinner, with Jody at the helm, showing us some of her favorite ol’ stomping grounds!
Can’t wait to see you there next week!
Formal invitation to follow.

All Bachelorette Attendees Now Authors on Blog
That's right - you all have full access to the blog and may write your own posts and add new features (pictures, links, polls, etc) to the blog at your whim!
So, go ahead and write to us, ask questions, enter ideas - and share your thoughts.
Note: You can upload your own pictures directly into a blog post, but if you would like pictures of you and the bachelorette added to the slideshow, you must still send me your pictures, since the slideshow runs through my gmail photo album.
Other than that, go crazy - and feel free to continue to send me any questions or comments you might have about any bachelorette party things.
And, Kari, thanks for suggesting this!
Till May, Marissa

Bachelorette Party - May 16th-18th
It's Official – Jody's Bachelor-palooza Weekend will kick off Friday, May 16th for a weekend of fun, sun and whatever trouble we can find along the banks of June Lake, CA. I eagerly await our all-girls weekend. Until then, just picture me giggling in front of the computer, as I search various bachelorette internet stores for wild party accoutrements….. Please know - any and all suggestions, thoughts and comments are welcomed and encouraged in regard to the weekend festivities. While this is in Jody's honor, and I'm organizing the logistics – it's all our trip and your input is appreciated! Activities and menus have yet to be decided, but we can begin narrowing that down as the date draws near – initial ideas are included next to the below activities as a beginning discussion point. Please offer input here as I'm unfamiliar with the area and not very sure about what's close to us. You may contact me at any time, cell: (415) 425-2737. I thought I would start this blog so there is a specific destination for us all to go to to communicate with eachother, share ideas, and have the information at your fingertips. I also thought it would be a fun way to share pictures afterwards and keep in touch. Wishing you all the best - Cheers! Marissa
