a san francisco bachelorette pow wow.

Last Friday, I headed to San Francisco for Tiffany’s bachelorette weekend! Colby planned everything and the itinerary was ridiculously fun – lunches, brunches, sushi dinners, bachelorette games and lots of dancing. All 17 (yup!) of us stayed at The Clift hotel, ate sushi at Umami, pizza from Pizzeria Delfina, had cocktails at The Tipsy Pig, the Redwood Room, Delaney’s dive bar, danced at Le Colonial, enjoyed a bottomless mimosa brunch at Circa Lounge all while playing a scavenger hunt through the city. True to Tiffany’s current style, we stuck with a “tribal” theme – feathered headbands, pow wows and sacrificing things for our chief.

After the bachelorette festivities concluded, six of us girls stayed an extra night to participate in the 100th Annual Bay to Breakers, a 12K race known for people wearing crazy costumes and even running nude. Friends who’ve participated said it’s unlike any event in the country and one of the best days in San Fran – and it did not disappoint. We started early, saw some crazy sights and partied in the Haight-Ashbury district. Keeping with the bachelorette theme, we dressed Tiffany up as a “runaway bride” and we were her tacky bridesmaids – all wearing dresses with tennis shoes. Personally, I thought we looked more like Sister Wives, but you can decide after seeing the handful of blog appropriate photos I have.
On that note, I’m sad devastated that I lost sacrificed my camera in the midst of all the fun. I cared more about all the photos we’d taken and those to be taken than the camera itself, but sadly, it’s long gone. Because I’m typically the photo taker in the group, we were left mostly with iPhones and a couple other cameras. I hope to have more pictures soon. Until then, enjoy the snapshots below.

The bachelorette weekend was seriously insanely fun and we’re so glad the forecasted rain stayed far, far away. It was blue skies and San Fran style sunshine all weekend.

Oh and the “bachelor” aka Danny, wasn’t shy admitting how excited he was for his “boys weekend” with Huntie. Apparently they really enjoyed their man time alone.
