WHAT WE DO

Our niche clientele is bachelorette groups who are traveling to town for one last hoorah before the big day, but we do sooo much more! Now a multifaceted business, we've added Guy About Town to serve bachelor parties! Plus, through our little black book of local business owners and vacation rental owners, we've evolved into a small business support company, assisting entrepreneurs with logo and branding creation, content creation, and more!
