Hola July brides!

So one of my bridesmaids has offered to throw me a bachelorette. She has asked me to come up with some ideas, and I have NO IDEA. I told her that I would be absolutely thrilled with whatever she came up with, but she insisted that I come up with some ideas to make it special.

I'm the first of my friends to get married, and I've never been to a bechelorette party in my life. My shower will be the same day (my mom is throwing it,) And my BM thought it would be fun to make it an all-day celebration.
So, help me out here ladies? Do you know what you'll be doing for your bachelorette? Let me pick your brain :)

    I am pretty sure we are going out to a nice dinner then out to a bar to drink and dance.  I only know the city we are going to but everything else they are keeping as a surprise! 

    From the ones I have been to in the past which has been a lot it was always dinner then out to drink and dance :)

    I would say dinner and drinks/dancing is the most common thing!  We have a really cool bowling ally in Philly.

    For my Bach party we are going to AC for the weekend but I have been to plenty that involve a fun club or bar in a nearby city!

    I am not sure what my girls are doing. I just told them I want to have fun.
    The ones I have been to in the past have been like Lady mentioned drinking and dancing.

    I'm flying to San Diego to meet up with a friend who moved out there, then we're road tripping to Las Vegas to meet about 10 of my friends who are flying there from NY. We'll all be in Vegas for the weekend.

    My MOH planned the whole thing in Vegas, then I decided to make the stop in San Diego. My plane ticket (which I paid for myself) actually ended up being cheaper that way, surprisingly, even though now it'll be NY to SD, then LV to NY. I asked her if it would be ok if I did this, and she was like YES OF COURSE! Otherwise I wouldn't have added those plans for fear of insulting her.

    I think typically going out to a dinner/bar is the way to go. Everyone that my MOH spoke with really wanted a vacation and they all collectively decided on Vegas.  I CANNOT WAIT!

    We're all on really tight budgets, so they're throwing me a girls-only pool party at my house for the day and then going out to dinner later in the evening. 

    I'm throwing a bachelorette party for my MOH next month (she's getting married in April) and I'm having a psychic medium come to my house to do a group reading and then we're going out for dinner/drinks.  I'm also trying to get my personal trainer (who is also an exotic dancer) to deliver flowers that day and then maybe dance around for her a little bit, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to afford it hahaha

    Our plan right now is to get dressed up, get a limo, go out to a nice dinner (or lunch not sure of times yet), and go mini-golfing! We wanted to do something fun. My friends and I are not big club/bar people so we didn't want that. We can still drink, at the meal and in the limo, plus have a good time doing something a little diffrerent. We also entertained the idea of going down to the city, in a limo, for a broadway show (Me and one of my BM's are huge theatre freeks!) but I think thats going to be to much money.

    I have no idea what my girls are doing. I'm not really the dancing type. My ideal party would be a picknick, followed by something active, then a dinner, aand afterwards a sleepover. Singstar karaoke would be a plus. But I know I'll love anything the girls plan for me.
