Event Ideas for the Bachelorette Party:
1. Spa Day with Your Girls
We know you've heard of this bachelorette party idea before and you're probably so sick of reading how GREAT of an idea it is, but it's because it honestly is such a good option. Everyone has a good time, and there's more than enough time after a good spa day to hit the bars up to go a little crazy!
2. A Night on the Town
Who doesn't enjoy a good night out? I know I sure do! Spend the day getting ready with your girls in a big hotel room, and enjoy the night life the big cities near you have to offer! If you're all planning on getting lit, don't forget to be safe and take an Uber or Lyft back to the hotel at the end of the night!
3. Lake Day / Campfire at Night
If you're not much a partier (or you are a partier and want to spend your bachelorette party differently), then a lazy day at the lake is never a bad option! There are tons of cheap AirBnbs on lakes that'll have more than enough room for you and your girls! Enjoy beer, s'mores, and water sports! And don't forget all of those great tan lines you're going to get!
4. Beach Party
Like a day at the lake but even MORE relaxed. Sounds pretty heavenly if you ask me! Throw some towels, sunscreen, beers, sunglasses, and your favorite suit into a beach bag and hit the beach with all of your favorite women in your life!
5. Weekend in a Big City
If you're looking to go ALL OUT, take everyone out-of-town and go on a mini vacation! We promise everyone will enjoy themselves, and you'll make so many great memories together! Check out SkyScanner and Skiplagged for some cheap flights to some of your favorite destinations!
6. A Vineyard
If you're all into wine, visiting a vineyard is always a great time. Especially the vineyards that let you stomp on those grapes yourselves! Get drunk off of wine and have a few laughs with some of your favorite people!
7. Strip Club
If you're looking to be WILD with your best partners-in-crime, hit up some local strip clubs and support your local performers! Don't forget to bring cash to tip the performers!
8. Pole Dancing Class
Don't want to sit around at a strip club? Then hop up on that pole yourself! Check out big cities near you and see who offers pole dancing classes for you to try out! Get fit and giggle with your favorite gal pals!
9. Casino Night
If you're a risk-taker and love to play games, the casino is the place to be. From the bright lights, plethora of game options, great food, and fun atmosphere, everything you need to have a good time is right there!
10. Cooking Class
We stan a good cooking class, girl! Food brings people together, and that statement is best proven by the simple fact that cooking classes are always a good time for everyone! Learn how to make a great dish and laugh as you and your friends attempt together.
11. Dinner Cruise
Although this may sound like an expensive option, renting out a cruise on a lake or river is honestly not nearly as expensive as you thought it would be! Make the night all the more fun and pick out a theme for the cruise! Set a dress code, buy some decorations, find some great themed games, and have a blast on the water!
12. Road Trip
Who doesn't love a good road trip?? Put your heads together and find the perfect destination! Whether you're looking to go on a long trip on a little mini vacay, road trips are perfect for both. Make the best out of the road trip by throwing together a few playlists, stocking up on snacks, and putting on your comfiest clothes!
13. Concert or Music Festival
For those that love to stay up late and appreciate good music, concerts or music festivals are beyond perfect. Buy that over-priced hot dog--I promise you won't regret it. Check out TicketMaster or Spotify to find see when some of your favorite artists are playing next!
14. College Night
If you're lucky enough to live near colleges, there's bound to be some lit frat parties nearby too. Doesn't matter how old you are, I guarantee if your group of gal pals approach a frat party and ask to celebrate with them, they will be more than willing to say yes. Dress up, bring a few bottles of your favorite liquor as a gift, and party like a college student once more!
15. Pub Crawl
The beauty of pub crawls is that they are easy to plan out and are so diverse that no one will be bored! Pick out your route before your embark, and save it on your phone so your soon-to-be intoxicated self won't get lost!
16. Adventuring
Not down to party? Totally get it. Lucky for you, there are SO many different ways to have a good time. Always wanted to skydive? Zip line? Rock climb? Now is the time to do with with your favorite adventure buddies!
17. See a Musical
Who doesn't love a good musical? There's so much to take in, and a good production of a musical can be found in so many different places, not just major theaters! Grab drinks and great food before and/or after and make it a full night!
18. Karaoke
I LOVE karaoke. Push everyone out of their shells with their favorite songs and some good alcohol! Karaoke can last for hours and always provides the perfect opportunity for some hilarious memories!
19. Hotel Room & Movie Night
I did mention this earlier in the blog, but this is seriously the best idea ever. Getting a hotel room for a movie night (or weekend depending on how intense your Netflix binge sessions are) is the perfect way to movie night. You can be as messy and lazy as you want to be when you're watching movies because you're in a hotel room! Buy all of your favorite snacks, order in some great local foods, and don't forget your coziest PJs!
