Napa Bachelorette Weekend

The first weekend in March, I headed to Napa to celebrate Katie's Bachelorette!!! Woo Hoo! We had 11 girls and we rented an awesome house surrounded by wineries and had a great couple days wine tasting, relaxing and celebrating Katie's last few months of singlehood :)

Kickoff dinner after a long day of traveling...

Getting stocked up for the weekend...


In the limo ready for a great day of wine tasting and warm weather!



1st Stop - Mumm Champagne






Next Stop - Silver Oak - our favorite!!!














Last stop - Beringer for the wine cave tour!






After a long day of wine tasting we headed to a yummy pizza place and then hung at our sweet house, drinking more wine of course, and had a fun night spending time with just us girls!!

The next day we jumped in one of our rental cars...11 girls in 1 minivan!! Sorry Aimee - thanks for being our DD :) We checked out more wineries, including a private winery owned by one of the girls families - so awesome and beautiful!!!

1st Stop of the Day - Pine Ridge





Next we went to a private winery called The Terraces. They also make balsamic vinegar so here we are tasting the balsamic..it takes 25 years to be completely ready!

Last stop - WM Harrison


That night we headed to a nice dinner at Tra Vigne. Hands down - the BEST mozzarella appetizer ever!
MOZZARELLA CHEESE “AL MINUTO”
hand made at the moment ordered, grilled bruschetta, napa valley olive oil



After dinner we headed back home for our surprise night for Katie. We brought in dessert chefs who made 3 amazing desserts and had a fun lingerie party for the bride to be :)





The next day we packed up our stuff, cleaned the house and spent an hour on the little Main street of town buying some souvenirs :) I had such a great weekend and can't wait to go back again soon!

Happy Bachelorette Katie!!
