How to Plan a Stress-Free Bachelorette Party or Rehearsal Dinner in 2019


by Theresa Hess - Owner of Pinot's Palette in Addison Texas




Planning a wedding can be stressful - from selecting your venue, dress, and flowers to writing your vows, nominating your wedding party and picking the reception menu (and the cake!) it becomes all too easy to lose sight of the reason for the party.


We were lucky enough to take part in the Big Fake Wedding Dallas which was a cool alternative to your standard bridal show. The event was held July 11 at Monroe Pearson in Denton, TX, a beautifully renovated mercantile full of charm and grace.


The main event was the vow renewal of this sweet couple in front of several hundred "guests", all of them brides and grooms to be. What a uniquely realistic opportunity to see potential vendors in action, almost like a dress rehearsal or an audition. After the ceremony, the guests were invited into the reception to enjoy bites, beverages, dancing and a chance to interact with other potential vendors and service providers in a relaxed and fun atmosphere.

And that's where we came in! We got to hang out and interact with the happy couple and attendees as well as the other vendors, and offer creative alternatives to your standard bachelorette bar crawl. While that can certainly be fun it's also limiting - have any friends or family under 21 or who don't drink? Want to include grandma or someone with a mobility issue? Well, too bad for them, right? Wrong! Bring the entire squad to Pinot's Palette Addison and have a fun and classy outing creating memories in a fun yet inclusive environment. Want bumpin' music? We have that too, but at least you'll be able to hear each other and actually chat while creating your masterpieces.We also have a bar so no irritating BYOB, just show up and let the fun begin. With low minimums, great customer service and an extensive professional background in event planning we take all of the stress out of planning your bachelorette party.

We have loads of traditional paint and sip on canvas activities but we also have alternatives such as painting on wood palettes, servings trays, wine glasses, bottles and even on canvas totes. Don't want to paint at all? The DIY Chunky Blanket workshop is a fun and popular craft that anyone can do, no knitting experience required, honest!






One of the most surprising benefits of attending bridal shows of any kind is the opportunity to network with other service providers. We will save that for another blog but forming relationships with people in complimentary industries is not only fun but a great way to support other small business owners. We got to spend time with Michele Ames...
