A Bravo Themed Wine Getaway
June 2024
Bravo,
Bravo,
BRAVO!
Hi, my name is Ashley, and I’m a Bravoholic.
I planned a trip combining my two favorite things—wine and Bravo. I invited eight of my closest friends to spend a weekend with me in Paso Robles. I was my first client, and believe me, I am hard to please! I wanted my friends to experience the beauty of wine country and have a fun, unforgettable time.
I believe wine doesn’t have to be stuffy, and this trip was all about the “wine and turn up” vibe.
Here are the highlights from our getaway! But first, check out the invite!
No Group Texts,
Just Effortless Access
The excitement is in the details.
A click away from everything you need, without the clutter.
To make sure my guests had all the trip details at their fingertips, I created an interactive website instead of using the dreaded group text. This way, everything is easily accessible and keeps the excitement alive! With just a click of a button, guests could RSVP, check the itinerary, and access important information without the hassle.

The Hottest Party in Town: TMZ Edition
Who’s on the guest list? The stars are out, and we’ve got the inside scoop.
Instead of sending a basic text reminder, I created a website styled like a TMZ gossip page, spilling the details on the “hottest party in town”. From quick reminders about the dinner party dress code to spotlighting the famous guest list, I wanted everyone to feel like a real Bravolebrity. I even wrote the articles in true TMZ style!
Countdown to the Bravo Bash!
The excitement is real, and the countdown is on. Can’t wait to see you!
Just two days until the big event! I sent out this reminder to keep the excitement going and ensure everyone is ready for the Bravo-themed fun. It's all part of the build-up to what’s sure to be an unforgettable weekend.
