Our Favorite Girls’ Trip Moments on 30A

1. Welcome Charcuterie Board from Graze 30A

We kicked off our trip in the most delicious way: with a stunning charcuterie board from Graze 30A. It was waiting at the house as everyone arrived, and it instantly set the tone for a cozy, welcoming weekend. Think brie, berries, nuts, crackers, and honey—every little detail felt so thoughtful and elevated. Plus, it meant no one had to worry about food after a long day of travel. Hosting tip? Order your board ahead of time and have it waiting at your rental when the girls arrive!

2. Seaside Food Trucks for Dinner

Night two was all about fun, color, and carefree vibes—and the Seaside food trucks delivered! Everyone could pick exactly what they wanted, from tacos to grilled cheese, and we ate under string lights with ocean breezes swirling around us. This setup is perfect for a big group because it’s casual, quick, and filled with charm. The iconic airstreams in Seaside are not only a must-visit, they make for the cutest photo ops too.

3. Lip Gloss Charm Making

This one was such a hit! One afternoon, we gathered around the table to create our own lip gloss charms. It was part craft time, part bonding moment—and totally on brand for our Young Living crew. We used oils, cute glitter, and charm chains to personalize each gloss. It was simple, sweet, and so fun to see everyone’s creativity come to life. This would be an adorable activity for a bridal party or birthday too!

4. Build-Your-Own Ice Cream Bar

You can’t go wrong with ice cream after a beach day. One evening, we set up a DIY ice cream bar complete with toppings like sprinkles, crushed cookies, coconut flakes, and drizzles of honey or chocolate. It was such a fun way to wind down the night and create sweet memories (literally!). Bonus: everyone loved customizing their bowl, and it made for such a cute group photo moment.

5. Dreamy Beach Picnic with Fresco Picnic Co

One of the most beautiful highlights of our trip was a styled beach picnic by Fresco Picnic Co. Picture this: a low table set right on the sand, layered rugs and pillows for lounging, fresh florals, glowing candles, and the sound of waves in the background. It felt like something out of a movie. Whether you’re celebrating something special or just want an unforgettable evening with your girls, I can’t recommend them enough. They handle everything—setup, styling, and cleanup—so all you have to do is show up and soak in the moment. Pure magic.

6. Dinner at Bud & Alley’s

For our final dinner, we made a reservation for 20 at Bud & Alley’s, one of 30A’s iconic restaurants. The sunset view, ocean breeze, and delicious coastal food made it the perfect spot to reflect on the trip and celebrate each other. This is a must for any group visiting 30A—be sure to book early if you’re traveling with a larger group!

7. Beach Bonfire Night

This might have been my favorite night of the trip. We ended our stay with a beach bonfire by Light Me Up Beach Bonfires—blankets, music, roasted marshmallows, and cozy conversations under the stars. There’s just something magical about gathering around a fire by the ocean, toes in the sand, surrounded by women who lift you up. If you’re planning your own girls’ getaway, this is a must-add experience. Local companies can set up the whole thing for you—chairs, s’mores, and all!

The Heart Behind the Trip

While all the fun and food were amazing, the heart of this trip was about connection and community. Being surrounded by my Young Living team—women who dream big, encourage one another, and build with purpose—was the biggest gift. We had little moments throughout the weekend where we chatted about goals, mindset, and how to keep showing up with heart in our businesses. It was woven in so naturally. Not forced, not scheduled. Just women encouraging women.

There’s something truly powerful about getting away from the noise and soaking in a few days of sunshine, sisterhood, and soul care. We laughed until we cried, danced in the kitchen, and poured into one another in a way that I’ll carry with me for a long time.
