(ARA) - One of the
first decisions a Maid or Matron of Honor must
make about the Bachelorette's Party is the
location. Discuss this with the bride. Do you
want it local or are you planning a weekend trip
with the girls? Regardless of what you choose,
the most important thing is to have fun with the
bride.
It is a good idea
to hold your Bachelorette Party at least one or
two weeks before the wedding. If you live near
wine country, why not try a day of wine tasting
with your bridesmaids instead of the usual pub
crawl. Local wineries are happy to suggest
itineraries. Choose a designated driver or
arrange for a car service. Depending on the
number of wines sampled and the generosity of
the pour, each tasting can easily add up to one
or more full glasses of wine.
For
the more adventurous at heart, you might want to
plan an afternoon of parasailing or learning to
rock climb. Perhaps try your hand at scuba
diving.
Why
not take an entire weekend for a spa getaway
rather than a one-night event. In that case you
have plenty of options. Consider whether you
want a weekend filled with pampering beauty
treatments or perhaps one that caters to the
soul with refreshing hikes, meditation, and
exercise.

LOCATION IDEAS
If you already
have plans for a night of bar hopping, spice
up the event. Start the evening at your
favorite restaurant, and move from club to
club, choosing a different atmosphere for each
stop. Perhaps after that, a mellow jazz venue.
Finish the night at a quiet neighborhood bar
where you and your bridesmaids can squeeze
into a cozy booth and share memories over a
bottle of chardonnay.
