How I Would Plan and Execute a Cruise Bachelorette

I honestly had NEVER heard of a bachelorette trip on a cruise until a few people commented asking for a video of one on my more recent TikToks. It got me thinking how I would plan a bachelorette on a cruise if given the opportunity. So, I decided to just plan one for fun and post my decision making here. Enjoy! How I Would Plan and Execute a Bachelorette on a Cruise (no budget) The cruise line of choice: Virgin Voyages First off, kids are not allowed on Virgin Voyage cruises, which personally is a major plus; especially for a bachelorette trip. Book the XL Sea Terrace balcony cabin for the best bang for your buck: the room's   price included gratuities, WiFi, non-alcoholic beverages, and specialty dining. The XL Sea Terrace fits two comfortably, and the total costs depends on the type/length of cruise you are on. I always recommend cruises during the summer; but if you're planning a winter bachelorette, they have tons of quick trips through the Bahamas and Florida.  The trip th

Gimme Gimme Gimme a Husband Bachelorette (In Depth!)

 This is my first ever in depth breakdown of my vision for a bachelorette theme. I tried to stay pretty generic on things to buy, locations to go to, etc. so that any bachelorette of any price range can follow these ideas as a baseline or for beginning inspiration. I am going to do one of these posts for every theme I generate on the Sophisticated Baches Pinterest (so if you want to see what's next, you might want to take a peek here ). For now, enjoy my interpretation of a Mama Mia inspired bachelorette!

Top 10 Destinations for 2023 Bachelorettes

  Self explanatory. Let's get into it: New York City, New York I recently went to a bachelorette in NYC and it was amazing. There is something for every bride in this city. Whether it is bar hopping the various rooftops in Midtown, or doing a group yoga class in Central Park, no two bachelorettes in NYC are the same. If this is something that you and your bridal party are considering, stay tuned for my post about the activities the bachelorette I was on in NYC did; as well as places/activities we wanted to go to but didn't have time for. Pro tip: go in the summer; but if that is not feasible, Christmas time in the city is also a good choice.  Austin, Texas Let's face it: Nashville is overdone! Austin's music scene is up and coming, and their night life defiantly rivals it Tennessee counterpart. There are music festivals year round in Austin, so if your bride is a music fanatic, try to plan the bachelorette around one of them.  My personal favorites are Austin City Limit

On Cloud 9 Themed Goodie Bags (For Guests and Brides!)

On Cloud 9 is an up and coming theme for Bachelorettes and Bridal Showers in 2023. Goodie Bags are also an ongoing trend for these kinds of events. They are a great way to make your guests feel special while also helping to tie a theme together. They are also perfect for providing necessities that guests may have forgot to bring or didn't think they needed. I am a big proponent of Goodie Bags, and they always are accounted for in my budget for these kinds of events. Below are some ideas for cloud-themed Goodie Bags. Don't worry: I will make a post later on addressing items that should be in all Bachelorette Goodie Bags, regardless of the theme.  Cloud Shaped Sleeping Masks: Amazon, $8.99 for 3 pack These sleeping masks are perfect for an On Cloud 9 themed event. Not only could they be great for pictures during your catered brunch at the Air B&B, but they also are very useful for guests that are sleeping in rooms with lots of windows or natural lighting. They also have adjus
