It’s been a busy few weeks in Hoboken {filled with champagne and friends} — so we thought we’d fill you in on what we’ve been up to:
Aaraa‘s Bridal Event
It was a night of accessorizing, sipping vino, and prepping for the big day. Hoboken brides for all corners of the mile square were in attendance for the EVJ Wedding Co hosted event — featuring bridal influencers Jessica of Dressed by Jess, Alexandra of The Bloginista, Jenn of The Hudson Cakery, and Jen, Editor of Hoboken Girl. Each bride presented a mood board of her wedding style complete with affordable and adorable accessories for brides-to-be to peruse and participate in a Q&A. Such a fun time had by all — if you haven’t stopped into Aaraa {408 6th Street}, you must!

Work It Out’s BYO-Beau Bridal Bootcamp
Work It Out‘s River Studio hosted BYOB-eau, that is — and boy, was it a workout! Brides-to-be and their partners participated in a brides and bubbly bootcamp led by Vanessa of WiO. Drills included trampoline jumps, burpees, and a ton of other sweaty-yet-totally-necessary workout moves to get everyone looking their best — finished off with some bubbly, of course! Can’t wait to get back to WiO for a workout soon!

Lulu’s #HobokenGirlSocial
If you’ve been searching the #HobokenGirlSocial hashtag, you’ll see that it’s been up to quite a lot lately. On June 10th, HG partnered with Lulu’s in the W Hotel {Pier 13’s sister bar} to host a Prosecco and Pampering night out! Over 250 ladies attended, taking part in the event’s pampering stations — eyebrow threading, henna tattoos, skinny wraps, makeup tutorials, chair massages, skin mapping and consults, an Alex & Ani table — and of course, prosecco! Jackraffit {a mobile fundraising and giveaway service} was there to host all of the night’s giveaways {no raffle tickets needed!}, and Carolyn D’Elia was also present to perform some beautiful songs on her keyboard {with a beautiful skyline backdrop, no less}.
Here are some photos of the event — can’t wait for the next one!
