Nothing was more well-prepared at Lea Michele‘s wellness-focused bachelorette party than the meals locally sourced by a private chef.
The girls’ weekend, which was orchestrated through Booking.com, took place at the scenic enclave of Kalihiwai Bay in Hawaii, where Michele’s closest friends celebrated her upcoming nuptials to Zandy Reich in a private home called the Ikena Lani, a vacation rental home offering sweeping ocean and mountain views.
The property–complete with a swimming pool, gym, sauna and other on-site amenities–also features a full-service gourmet kitchen, where the group enjoyed meals locally prepared by a private chef.

Michele and her guests—including Emma Roberts, Becca Tobin, Jamie Lynn Sigler and Joanna Garcia Swisher—indulged on authentic Hawaiian dishes such as Mahi-Mahi with pineapple cilantro Berbere sauce. Other main courses served throughout the weekend included braised local pork shoulder with guava ancho sauce, Ti leaf wrapped kanpachi with lemon grass butter, and skewered boneless Kalbi ribs.
Side dishes served to the group included a range of options from coconut jasmine rice and quinoa and kale salad. Dessert included a mouthwatering banana cake with banana curd and coconut caramel.

Along with these freshly prepared dishes, the bachelorette party received at-home massages to complete the wellness concept before the wedding. The ladies came prepared in their best bachelorette swimsuits, including a special white one-piece dedicated to the bride.
“Love my girls so much!” Michele wrote on Instagram following the trip. “Best Bachelorette weekend!”
