Planning the perfect bachelorette weekend is no small task, after all, you want it to be the perfect weekend to celebrate your best friend. 

We've rounded out a list of 9 things that shouldn't be an afterthought when planning the weekend.

1. THE RIGHT LOCATION

The city of the bachelorette weekend sets the mood for the overall bachelorette so finding a location sure to make the bride's wildest dreams come true is key.

According to The Knot, the top destinations for bachelorette parties include:

  • Las Vegas
  • Los Angeles
  • New York City
  • Miami
  • Chicago
  • Scottsdale
  • Nashville
  • San Diego

Odds are the bride already knows where she wants to go, but if not, make sure you choose a spot that allows for activities the bride wants on the itinerary- Scottsdale for hiking and sunbathing, Las Vegas for clubs, Nashville for live music, etc. 

Depending on where the attendees' live, travel options should be top of mind!

 

2. A FUN THEME

Whether it's a "Last Rodeo," "Final Fiesta," "Disco Cowgirl," etc. theme, this sets the vibe for the whole weekend. 

It doesn't matter if you make the whole weekend themed or just dress up for one night, this is a fun way to get everyone on the trip involved! 

Getting in themes doesn't just show off the bride's personality, but it also helps bonds the attendees as they plan out their outfits and get ready together!

3. RELIABLE COMMUNICATION (WALKIE TALKIES)

We all have that friend who disappears at the bar, groups who want to split up, or the inevitably long bathroom line at the bar. 

By bringing walkie talkies the whole group can easily keep in touch with the push of the button, no need to worry about if someone got the text!

With walkie talkies, everyone on the bachelorette party can ensure safety of the entire group with reliable communication. 

Plus, if someone's phone dies, walkie talkies are the perfect solution. 

 

4. TRANSPORTATION

Make sure you have safe transportation you can count on from Point A to Point B. This is crucial!

Between arrivals at the airport, trips to the grocery store to stock up on snacks, dinner reservations, and hitting the bars, you'll want to make sure you have a rental car (and sober driver), party bus, or Ubers ready to go. 

5. DINNER RESERVATIONS

Part of the travel experience is finding cool, unique, tasty restaurants the host city has to offer. 

When traveling in such a large group, it's almost impossible to be seated at a restaurant without a reservation. 

If you're the maid of honor planning the weekend, work with the bride to see if there's any particular restaurants she wants to try!

Make sure you find a variety of spots so you get to taste the local cuisine.

Good luck getting everyone out of the house on time!

6. DECOR

Part of executing the theme is getting decor.

Photo back drops, balloons, banners, customized napkins, and more!

Whatever it is, there are plenty of options sure to set the mood and use as props for the copious photoshoots. 

7. KILLER PLAYLIST

Pool parties, getting ready, impromptu dance parties...they all call for an epic playlist that will get everyone hyped!

Start a group playlist that everyone can add to so that the music gets everyone moving and ready to celebrate. 

Often times, it's the playlist that that helps create lasting memories! 

 

8. PERSONALIZED TUMBLERS

Few things are as important on a bachelorette trip than hydration.

We all know party favors are a thing now and this is the perfect item that each attendee will get a lot of use out of!

Whether it's holding their favorite alcoholic beverage or full of water, a personalized tumbler is sure to be found in each girl's hand at all times.

Not to mention, it's something they would use once they're back home!

9. POLAROID AND/OR DISPOSABLE CAMERA

Just because the weekend ends, doesn't mean the memories have to fade away!

Capture all the memorable moments with a polaroid and/or disposable camera to add a fun feel to photos from the trip. 

You can even have them printed and put into a photo book or scrapbook for the bride so she can look back on the weekend for years to come.
