Just a bach party, two cool guys and a great freaking day
Just what the doctor ordered! Tom and Jake were the coolest guys and we had the best time. They took the bachelorette energy in stride, were the most accommodating, and told the history of Charleston in the best way I’ve heard so far! 10/10 experience, these guys rocked. (Plus the boat was beautiful!)
