Bachelorette Party Ideas
Hey Ladies;
My friend and I are in charge of the bachelorette party for our friend who's getting married in October. What are some ideas you all have for a fun night out with the girls?
TIA

Re: Bachelorette Party Ideas
We took a pole dancing class for mine. It was fantastic (as none of us ooze sex appeal). Then dinner and drinks.
Other things I've though would be fun: a pure romance party (or something similar), trip to WI Dells (although you'd have to do this sooner rather than later).
I think it depends on how much you want drinking to be a part of the night and how many people. If you just wanted to bar hop, you could do Minneapolis, Grand Ave (St. Paul), or even Stillwater.
If you wanted to do something less drinking involved, you could take a class of some sort (pole dancing, craft, cooking, ect.).
Here are some of the ones that I have been to:
Last year I rented a cabin near Brainerd and about 10 of us girls went up for the weekend. It was sooo much fun. I also had a pure romance person come and we went to Zorbaz on Gull Lake. It was $500 to rent the cabin for the weekend, but everyone chipped in and it was pretty reasonable. You could probably find a good deal after labor day when it's still nice.
I'm also going to a bachelorette party in a couple weeks where the MOH rented a party bus that has karaoke. The bride loves to sing so she will absolutely love it. We have the bus for 5 hours and it's about $40/person. Not sure what company, but I could probably find out if you're interested.
I 3rd the WI Dells. I went with a group of 7 girls in the middle of January a few years back and have been dying to go back. We rented through the actual owner of this condo and did the 2 bedroom (up to 8 people but he would've allowed more). It also opens up to a 3rd little wing with a deck that makes a total of 14 people. It has a full kitchen which was nice because we got to make most of our meals. Underground walk ways to shopping and the indoor waterpark (free pass for every person for every day you stay). The price was perfect- I think we paid $65/person total for 3 nights.
We went to Marley's when we went out...super fun even though it was us and a handful of locals because it was a weeknight in the middle of January. They even shuttled us to and from Chula Vista for free. Anyway, I can't wait to go back and do that again!
