When it came time for former Dallas Cowboys cheerleader and bride-to-be Jessica to decide on a location for her bachelorette weekend, Austin was a no-brainer! Besides being one of the top bachelorette party destinations with tons to do, Austin was a convenient location for Jessica's twelve best friends who all still live in the lone star state. We've recapped Jessica's party below, but make sure to also check out Jessica's blog, Love Jess Marie, for even more info on their fabulous weekend in the ATX!
