In this blog post, we'll dive into some unfiltered hot takes on the bachelorette weekend experience – things to help avoid, to leave in 2023 and to make your bride’s weekend stress free!

Destination Dilemmas: Hot Take #1:

Choosing the perfect destination is both exciting and honestly a little nerve-wracking. From beachfront bungalows to bustling cities, the options are endless. The hot take? Sometimes, the less conventional locations end up being the most memorable. Who knew a quaint mountain cabin could be the ultimate bachelorette paradise? You can even make it a full Camp Bach theme and channel your inner Parent Trap fantasy!

it’s not about you: Hot Take #2:

Ooops! That might’ve stung a little. It’s natural to see the itinerary and feel overwhelmed. Or maybe get the outfit themed list and realize their not your favorite - we’ve all been there sis! The main thing to remember is that this weekend is about the bride! Your job is to make her feel special and celebrated, even when it may not be your first choice! So let’s talk about how to keep the bride at the forefront of the weekend! The element of surprise is crucial. From unexpected guests to impromptu activities, the best bachelorette weekends include a few true surprises for the bride. It's all about keeping the bride on her toes and ensuring that each moment is as unpredictable as the next!

staying in is the new going out: Hot Take #3:

Bachelorette weekends are slowly starting to transform from crazy wild partying to a true wellness weekend! This is mainly determined by the type of bride you have - and we love BOTH types of brides! One trend we’ve seen in 2024 is staying in the first night of the weekend! Decking out the airbnb with your brides decor (done by Bach Babes of course!), hiring a private chef, creating a personalized quiz about the bride and groom, making trucker hats, having a lingerie shower or simply getting to know the dynamics of the group for the weekend! The possibilities are truly endless and can cater this night to your specific bride! A great way to help choose the perfect night in is to head to our amazing partnership list in each Bach Babes location!

Split costs stay sPlit: Hot Take #4:

This is one of those conversations that always seem a little awkward to talk about! Some attendees may be settled in their jobs, being girl bosses and making that moneyyyy honey. While others may be freshly graduating college and trying to figure out where their next meal is coming from! When it comes to budgeting for a bachelorette - all costs should be fully transparent upfront! The lodging accommodations, the activities, the food delivery, the restaurants and bars you’ll be visiting, even accounting in the amount of money you’ll spend on transportation! These are all things the girlies want to know when figuring out what they can/can’t afford. With that - if everyone agrees on a specific airbnb, decides how it will be split… and someone randomly backs out of the weekend (sorry babe) you still need to pay your portion! Everyone originally agreed to a set price, so if you bail it messes up budgeting for everyone else! Granted - there are things that come up you can’t help, but this is mainly for those that simply decide not to go anymore last minute!

Balance is Key: Hot Take #5:

Striking a balance between relaxation and revelry is crucial. A bachelorette weekend is not a marathon; it's a well-paced journey. So, you probably won’t be able to do a party bus, photoshoot and dance class all in one day! One major activity a day is the best way to stay balanced. Ensure there are moments for spa treatments, quiet chats, and truly celebrating your bride amid the lively celebrations!

In the world of bachelorette weekends, hot takes abound. From destination choices to budgeting and everything in between, it's the unique blend of spontaneity and thoughtful planning that makes these celebrations truly special. Remember, the goal is not just to throw a party; it's to create an experience that the bride and her squad will cherish for a lifetime! So, here's to the unfiltered fun and unforgettable moments that make bachelorette weekends a one-of-a-kind celebration!
