Chicago Bachelorette

COLLEEN’S BACHELORETTE WEEKEND
CHICAGO, IL

I just returned from a ridiculously fun bachelorette weekend in Chicago in honor of one of my best friends, Colleen. I know it couldn’t have been easy planning a bachelorette weekend in such a large city, but her Maid of Honor, Maggie, did an amazing job with everything! Some faves from the weekend included dinner at Mercat a la Plaxa (a delicious Catalan tapas restaurant on Michigan Avenue), day drinks at Castaways on North Avenue Beach, and Bye Bye Liver, a drinking comedy show at The Public House Theatre.

    Love this blog! I am currently living in Chicago and traveling to Columbus for work, so it’s so great to know a bit about the city and the coolest spots in town to check out to make the most of my months there. Are you familiar with any similar blogs for Chicago?
