After checking in at the Peabody, our first activity was a group dinner at a Memphis Staple Restaurant which happens to be one of my favorite places to eat at across the Mississippi River.....The Famous Rendezvous!!!
First off, girls, always pack a plan B outfit for the night just in case the super cute fun dress that you were planning to wear might have a broken zipper thanks to being super smart and dry cleaning it before you left for the weekend. I was thankful I threw in a extra dress in the mix of packing for the weekend because outfit plan B made an appearance!
Pictures from the night!!
