When it came time for blogger and bride-to-be Tomi (you may know her as Good Tomi Cha) to celebrate her final fling, she and her 15 best friends packed their bags and headed to Charleston! Charleston is one of Tomi's favorite cities and since many of her friends had never visited it before, she decided it would be the perfect destination for her bachelorette party. After some crazy storms, the group arrived safely in Charleston ready for a fun-filled weekend.
