More concrete plans.... and some questions..

Well since no one commented on the last post, Jill and I went ahead and made some more concrete plans:

Dinner at City Bistro in Hoboken Saturday July 12th at 5:30pm.

Then our first stop will be the Flatiron Lounge at 9:30 (I am reserving a table).
http://www.flatironlounge.com/

We will decide where to go from there. Jill has already made it quite clear that she is more interested in having a nice chill/fun night out and not some crazy, shot-infested, all-nighter. Ahhhh the differences between her and I ;op

We debated about springing for a hotel - but decided instead that staying at Jill's apt will be more cost efficient (as long as no one minds futons/sleeping bags/etc).

OK now onto some important things: (FOR BRIDAL PARTY MEMBERS)

Jill needs to know:
-who is coming on saturday (day before wedding) for manicures/pedicures?
-who wants Donna (Jill's hair dresser) to do their hair for the wedding ?

PLEASE comment guys ... only a few months left!

It's been a while..

WOW it really has been a while since we've all last blogged, and with the Bachelorette Party coming up soon (and a lot of the plans not yet set) I think now would be a good time to get bloggin' again.

We still need to find a restaurant in Hoboken for dinner (sooner rather than later so I can get our reservation in!) The internet only goes so far with trying to find places - keeping cost and such in mind ... any ideas!?!?

I am going to invite/add the other members of the bachelorette party onto the blog so we can keep all our ideas and thoughts in one spot. Plus, i would still like to have SOME surprises for Jill, as she knows the date/location for the most part.

One of these is going to be - that I am requesting everyone wear black, and I am going to find some hott pink dress/outfit for her to wear. The "Bachelorette- bride to be" stuff I got for her is black/pink leopard print... I got her a veil, and a sash so far. I don't think I am going to go any crazier; Jill really isn't that kind of bride ;op

Jill and I have some tentative bars: (comments are from Jill - she sent me these...)

(I love wine bars, and this looks really lovely...)
(Reminds me of our Euro trip!)
(SO up my alley...the only concern is $$...I might try and find their prices to see if its do-able...looks like a ton of fun)
(Work colleague with fantastic taste suggested here...the website is certainly interesting)
(Also suggested by the work colleague...looks amazing, yet prb really pricey...)
(This looks fantastic and reasonable....we could definitely start out here and then maybe go to Cibar or Manahatta...)


ANYWAY - let me know what you guys think!!!!
