The Perfect Weekend in Nashville
As Shania so famously said, Let’s go girls! It’s time to plan your Nash Bash!
Alright, so you want to come to Nashville for your upcoming party but don’t know where to start? Look no further! We really took one for the team, in the name of research *obviously*, and spent an entire weekend finding all the best things to do, places to eat, most fun activities and compiled them all just for you! We partnered with the awesome girls from StuffToDoInNashille and planned the ultimate Nashville Bachelorette Party, so you don’t have to! So pull up a chair, put on your cowgirl hat, and let’s plan your next trip!
Incase you’re still hesitant on if this is really the perfect weekend in Nashville, check out this glimpse into our weekend:
Day 1
Stay Minty Airbnb
Hopped off the plane at BNA, with my dream and my cardigan... So your new cowboy boots have finally hit the Nashville ground, it’s time to head to your Airbnb! One of our fav Airbnb companies for our bachelorette parties is Stay Minty. They have over 20 houses in Nashville, all decked out in the trendiest decor featuring enough beds to sleep your entire gang. The house we stayed in was about 10 minutes from Broadway and had a stripper pole right in the middle of the living room, so lots of fun to be had there!
Oh and our groups get 10% when booking Stay Minty! Just ask us when booking how to use the discount!
The best part for you, is that when you arrive at your Stay Minty rental, Bach Babes will already have it decorated for you! ;) So it’s time to pop that customized champagne bottle and get the party started!
Extreme Party Bus
We don’t waste any time, it’s time for Broadway! In my opinion, the best way to see Nashville and get the lay of the land is on a party bus. My favorite party bus in Nashville is Extreme Party Bus! I HIGHLY recommend it to our groups! It is a 2 hour party-on-wheels. It is BYOB and you have a bartender on board and they play whatever music you want and take you all over the city! This is the best way to start off your weekend on the right foot!
The same company that owns Extreme Party Bus, also owns The Nashville Shuttle to take large groups from point to point! This option is both cost efficient as well as SO FUN when you have your entire group in one ride, jamming out to your favorite songs. Definitely recommend booking this throughout your weekend!
Nashville Chauffeurs
The party bus will drop you off near Broadway! Now it’s your decision, do you stay out on Broadway and check out what all the hype is about? Or do you call it an early night and host a PJ party at the Airbnb?! If you choose the second option, make sure to do it in style!
Take one of the iconic limos from Nashville Chauffeurs from Broadway back to your Airbnb. You can choose from a lime green stretch Charger, to a sleek black Escalade limo. That little buzz you have going on, plus all the heads turning, will make you feel like you’re Dolly herself! Bach Babes can book this ride for you in advance!
Day 2
Morning Snacks!
Start your morning by popping the champagne in your Bach Babes mimosa bar and munch on boozy donuts from the best in town, Drunken Donuts! Donut flavors range from Chocolatini to Old Fashion - there’s something everyone will love. Make sure to also order a charcuterie board from A Tasty Tray to munch on throughout the weekend! Now you’re off to conquer your second day!
Pontoon Saloon
We’re here for whatever floats your boat, but we really recommend Pontoon Saloon! Nashville’s Premier party barge on the Cumberland River is a blast for your mid-morning activity filled with mimosas, views of downtown, and only the best vibes. Once the mimosas kick in, the boat turns into a dance floor on water, with space for over 45 people to dance on the river!
Virgin Hotel Rooftop
Now that you’re hungry, it’s time for lunch! We headed to the Virgin Rooftop for some of the best views of Nashville! The Pool Club is situated on the roof of the Virgin Hotel and serves up some of the best group cocktails in town - get the Wally, you won’t regret it! There is often a DJ on the rooftop and if you’re up for it, you can also rent a cabana at the pool for a few hours!
Fifth & Broadway
Nashville’s newest hotspot, Fifth & Broadway is the home to many stores, restaurants, and activities which make it the perfect next stop on your tour-de-Nashville. You can do some serious shopping at some of our fav boutiques like Molly Green, Nash Collection, and so much more!
Hampton Social
Hampton Social is the most instagrammable spot in town, it’s inevitable you have to stop by! Do it for the Gram. We stopped by for dinner and got amazing food and drinks and an awesome view of the river. 10/10 recommend eating on the rooftop if it’s open!
Day 3
City Winery
But first, mimosas, am I right?! City Winery is the perfect spot to start your morning you plan to hit broadway. They offer a bottomless drink option that let’s you switch between mimosas and bloody mary’s so you can nurse that hangover and head right on back to buzz-town ;) They often have shows inside including well known country stars to drag brunch so make sure to check out their events calendar before making your reservation! With the city view in the background, and the in-house made froze, this place tops at one of our favorite brunch spots.
Music City Crawler
The next activity in our itinerary is one of our favs, Music City Crawler! Now don’t let the idea of “I don’t want to work out while I drink!!” stray you away, the exercise is minimal but the thrill is optimal. This is another amazing way to see the city while listening to your fav Shania Twain songs, cruising down Broadway. The tour is about 2 hours long and you’ll play games, drink, listen to fun music, drink, see tons of fun signs, oh and drink :) The tour is BYOB so make sure you stop and grab a case of Truly before hopping on your bike!
Broadway, baby!
The moment we’ve all been waiting for, BROADWAY! Tourist come from states away just to touch that famous 1 mile strip of Honky Tonks - and I don’t blame them, it’s awesome! With over 32 multi-level bars (and rooftops!!) you can’t get bored here. Each floor has a different singer, just as good as the last! Lots of our groups will ask which Broadway bar is a must see and my answer is always: all the bars are amazing, truly whichever has the shortest line, just head in, check it out, and decide if you like the vibe. If not, on to the next one! The vibe can totally depend on how crowded the bar is, who is playing, and if you get a seat or the dance floor is open! So just walk around and find your favorites! Another pro tip: Broadway is even better during the day. It’s less crowded but still has live music on every floor, drinks flowing, and sun shining in, perfect rooftop weather! If you’re still like okay Mallory, but like where should we go on Broadway?!?!? My top choices are Acme (great view of the river), Whiskey Row (more club vibe), and Redneck Riviera (real honky tonk vibes).
Bad Axe Throwing
But on your bad ass boots.. I mean Bad Axe boots.. and bring your competitive side! ;) It’s time to axe throw! This is a fun activity for you and your girls to bring the competition. Bad Axe offers a full service bar, full menu for dinner, and live music! It’s right off of Broadway so it’s a short walk from all you’ve been up to on this day. Super fun way to enjoy dinner while also still having fun.
Day 4
Bride Vibe Yoga + Gray & Dudley Brunch
I can almost guarantee that your hangover will be on a 9/10 at this point so it’s very necessary that this day be chillllll. The perfect way to wake up properly before you head back home is with Bride Vibe Yoga! They send an instructor out to your Airbnb or hotel, bring the mats, speakers, water, etc. and bring alll the zen to you. You tell them your yoga comfort level before they arrive and the instructor will tailor the session to fit you and your squad.
Once the yoga session has you feeling all types of ways, finish off your weekend with a rooftop brunch session from Gray & Dudley! Gray & Dudley is the amazing restaurant inside of the 21C Hotel. If you’re staying at their hotel, I highly recommend having them cater a brunch to the rooftop near your yoga session so you can immediately hit the brunch bar after yoga. If you aren’t staying in the 21C Hotel, Gray & Dudley restaurant is still an awesome choice for your last brunch in town!
So now it’s time to head home :’( Hug your bridesmaids, round up your Nashville souvenirs, and head to BNA!
