I’ve decided that when it comes to a family trip/vacation over fall break , I prefer traveling somewhere cool, where it’s guaranteed to feel like fall. It’s still warm in October in Nashville, and I’m craving cooler tips and my fall wardrobe- ha! For similar reasons, I decided I enjoy visiting somewhere warm over springContinue reading “Family Fall Break – Boston Guide”

Baha Mar Bummer
Okay, so to start this post, I need establish a few things with you. First, I’m not a professional travel planner, and I certainly don’t pretend to be one. Everything shared here is just my opinion from experiences I’ve been fortunate enough to have over the years. These are not exhaustive reviews/critiques, but hopefully theContinue reading “Baha Mar Bummer”
Lake Austin Spa & The Commodore Perry
Over the last year I’ve had the opportunity to stay at two fabulous properties in Austin – Lake Austin Spa and the Commodore Perry. Since our travel content is so popular, I’ve been looking forward to sharing my thoughts on both, especially since we have so many Texans in the Mrs. Southern Social community! IContinue reading “Lake Austin Spa & The Commodore Perry”
Glamping in the Smokies
I recently lived out my “Troop Beverly Hills” fantasy at the base of the Smoky Mountains and had THE BEST time with Paul and the kids. Lat month, we planned a very last-minute family getaway to the Under Canvas “glamping” resort in East Tennessee. Y’all – Phyllis Nefler would thrive here. Under Canvas offers aContinue reading “Glamping in the Smokies”
Destination Delegation: Savannah
In mid-June, Georgia and I headed to Savannah with some other moms and daughters for the girls’ national dance competition. The trip came at a busy time and to be perfectly honest, I wasn’t ecstatic about it, but we ended up having THE BEST week. I absolutely fell in love with Savannah – all theContinue reading “Destination Delegation: Savannah”

“Notes” on SoundWaves (get it?) – Georgia’s 9th Birthday
Thank you to the Gaylord Opryland for sponsoring this event. Georgia’s about to turn 9 (HOW did that happen??) and this year she wanted to celebrate with a party at SoundWaves, the indoor/outdoor waterpark at Gaylord Opryland. I was delighted to oblige because they take care of so many of the details that it’s likeContinue reading ““Notes” on SoundWaves (get it?) – Georgia’s 9th Birthday”
Destination Delegation: Montage Palmetto Bluff
As promised, I’ve finally finished my guide to The Montage Palmetto Bluff, aka heaven on Earth. We had the most magical long weekend stay for July 4th and I cannot recommend this resort enough. Coincidentally, Alex (my Business Manager at Mrs. Southern Social) and her husband met friends there in June, so we put ourContinue reading “Destination Delegation: Montage Palmetto Bluff”
Destination Delegation: NASHVILLE
OK, y’all – this is my second Nashville guide in as many years because this city keeps growing! I can barely keep up with it all, but I really do think this updated list has something for everyone. Since I’m something of a unicorn these days – aka, a born and bred Nashvillian – I’veContinue reading “Destination Delegation: NASHVILLE”

Stylist extraordinaire Carson Love is my fairy godmother of fashion (read our previous Q&A here), and one of my favorite services she offers is packing clients for trips. We’re lucky enough to be heading out of town for July 4th, and Carson swung by last week to help me pull clothes and get organized. I’mContinue reading “Carson’s 10 Commandments: Packing Tips and Strategies”
