Nautical Bachelorette On Cape Cod

Two weekends ago, myself and 9 of my closest friends headed to Cape Cod to celebrate the upcoming wedding of my sister-in-law.  I'll be a bridesmaid for her in just over a month, and it was such a pleasure to help plan this wonderful weekend for her!  We rented a beautiful and historical four bedroom home that we found on Airbnb.  It had four bedrooms, two living areas, and a huge kitchen.
By far, my favorite part of the whole house was the porch that wrapped around the whole thing.  There were so many cute sitting areas, and it was the perfect place to set up our breakfasts and lunch.  When the rain cancelled our Saturday beach plans, we happily sat outside, played card games, and watched the rain come down for hours.
We went with a nautical theme for the event, since we were on Cape Cod!  One of the maids of honor went above and beyond and created so many adorable banners and photo booth props for us to enjoy!  How cute is that little crab mask or the "Bridesmate" speech bubbles?!
The other MOH put together these amazing goodie bags for each of us in attendance: sunglasses with "bridesmates" written on the side, mints, ibuprofen, Swedish fish, and a first aid kit.  Everyone especially loved the leis and gold tattoos, and the bride wore her sailor hat all weekend!
On Saturday night, we headed to downtown Falmouth for our dinner out.  If you're ever on the Cape, I highly suggest Bear in Boots - the service and atmosphere were fantastic and the food - just wow!  Our table ordered everything from homemade pastas to barbecue and enchiladas to grilled pizzas.  We were all so impressed with the selection and attention to detail.  The staff even brought us out complimentary prosecco at the conclusion of our meal to celebrate the bride-to-be!
We woke up early the next morning to pack up and drive to central Massachusetts for the bride's shower.  I'll be sharing more on that fun event next Wednesday!  So excited to be back linking up for Wedding Wednesday with the lovely Macy and Nikki!

How cute are those temp tats!!!!!!
I would never want to leave that porch... ever.
AirBnB is the thing to do now, isn't it? My step daughter is buying a house in Nashville to rent it out for that reason.
