They even had a catering company prepare all of Ina's classic meals for their final celebration of the weekend.
'They came up with the idea because I’m such a huge fan,' Nicole said, noting that the party took place near Ina's East Hampton home.
Although Ina missed out on the bachelorette bash, Nicole invited her to her upcoming wedding, which will take place on July 20.
'It goes without saying that Ina and Jeffrey are welcome at the wedding in Newport, Rhode Island,' she said.
