I recently went from Moët to Mrs. in Palm Springs with my bridesmaids, Matron of Honor and Maid of Honor and…you guys…it was the bachelorette weekend of my dreams!

To be Frank(furt)
If I’m being Frank, I didn’t love going to Frankfurt whenever I lived in Germany, but this trip changed that entire lapse of judgment! I love Frankfurt!
