The Girls Go To Savannah!

I wish I had brought my laptop to Savannah with me this past weekend. Janie, Laura and I made our annual girls weekend adventure in the sunny south this year. We stayed at the Mansion at Forsyth Park. What an AMAZING hotel! I would love to shoot a wedding there in the future...it is breathtaking. The decor is out of this world and our room was heavenly. The pillows - I MUST have them!

So our weekend started with a trip to the Charleston Airport to pick up Laura. Then we were off to Savannah to pick up Janie whose plane arrived just a few hours later! Our timing could not have been better.




Here we are settling into the hotel!






Check out the Mansion here!

We took my friend Jill's suggestion and ate dinner Thursday night at the Sapphire Grill. It was so good we went back again on Saturday night!


Don't we look good!

On Friday we watched as the city of Savannah began it's St. Patrick's Day preparations. The fountain in Forsyth Park as well as all the other city fountains were tinted green and there was a special dedication ceremony with all the "important people" of Savannah on hand in the park on Friday morning.

It didn't take us long to get into the GREEN!



With a full day of romping around the city being photographed, smiled at and our green boas in high demand (we could have made a fortune selling them!) we headed back to change and have another fantastic dinner at the famous Alligator Soul Restaurant. Check out the guys! Who do you think was having more fun? :)



Check out a few GLAM shots!



On Saturday we headed to Bonaventure Cemetary which was made famous in the book "Midnight In The Garden Of Good And Evil" back in the early 90's. The weather was beautiful and just look at some of the shots we took!




Well, after our tour of the cemetary we headed back downtown for some quick shopping. We all found a few cute things to bring home and then we were off to have our massages at the Mansion's Spa. Sorry but there are NO photos to share! Our dinner at the Sapphire Grill was once again spectacular and we capped off our evening with some jazz and mojito's back at the Mansion.
Next year ~ NEW YORK CITY!! Look Out....
