Haute Event: Ginnifer Goodwin Treats Her Sister to a Bachelorette Weekend at the Palazzo

Ginnifer Goodwin, star of HBO’s “Big Love” and the blockbuster hit “He’s Just Not That Into You,” treated younger sister Melissa to a bachelorette weekend at the Palazzo Sept. 17-19.

After a long day of filming, Goodwin arrived at the Palazzo late Friday night to relax in her Siena suite. The group of friends, including one who flew in all the way from England to help Melissa celebrate, loved the suites and kept talking about how nice their accommodations were. “They’re beside themselves with the rooms,” laughed Ginnifer.

During the afternoon on Saturday, the group went shopping at Barneys New York at the Shoppes at the Palazzo. Goodwin looked effortlessly chic in a white sundress and Givenchy sandals while she and Melissa admired handbags. Goodwin had fun styling her friends in brightly colored scarves and even their guy friend Mike got in on the action, sporting a periwinkle scarf while the group took pictures of each other.

After dropping off their shopping bags at the suites, the group headed down to Azure Luxury Pool to start partying. Melissa popped the Champagne cork like a true professional and they toasted with Ciroc mojito shots. Ginnifer took charge of lunch, ordering Caesar and caprese salads and Wolfgang Puck’s famous pizza without sauce.

Saturday night the celebration continued at Lavo, with Bubbles and Blue Hpnotiq cocktails and a menu of Lavo’s signature Italian favorites. After fueling up for the evening they headed upstairs to the nightclub where they danced the night away to the sounds of DJ Reach while sipping cocktails. Ginnifer donned a nude ruffle blouse and black shorts while the bride-to-be wore white Mickey Mouse ears with a veil. The group received Hpnotiq’s bachelorette gift bags of party favors complete with glow sticks, rings and boas
