Attention maids of honor. Not sure how to tackle your biggest task of all? Here are a few pointers to help you plan the perfect bachelorette party.
There is no “best” venue to hold a bachelorette party. Go into your planning with the bride in mind. What kind of celebration will she want to kick off her last days of singledom? Is she more likely to enjoy someplace crazy and loud or someplace suave and sophisticated?
It’s a good bet that mixing the two will be a hit. Try combining locations with different vibes. For example, your party could kick the night off with drinks and appetizers at a restaurant with a fun atmosphere like Kid Shelleen’s, Mikimotos or La Tolteca. Kick the next stop up a notch with dessert at The Buttery, the Hotel du Pont, or The Blue Moon. Then finish the evening at a club or bar the bride has never visited. That will make the party even more memorable.
Another great option—one that will eliminate transportation hassles—is to throw the party at one of Delaware’s greatest locations: the beach. Places like Savannah Inn in Lewes and Surfrider Condos in Dewey are close to the water and to dozens of bars and restaurants. This way, there is no planning involved. Your party can hit the street and stop anyplace that catches the eye.
If the transportation is part of the fun, think about renting a limo or bus for the evening. Companies like Dave’s Limo offer special deals for bachelorette parties and will take you to hotspots like The Cave or Club Risque in Philadelphia. You can stock the car with drinks and music and have a party all your own.
No matter which venue or combination of venues you choose, remember that the most important thing you can do for your bride is to create an event that she will never forget.
