My girls!!! Let me just tell you, they know how to throw an epic bachelorette party! Back in April, my girlfriends and I stocked up on rosé, snacks, and pool floaties and hit the road for Palm Springs. We had the absolute best time kicking back, relaxing, and soaking in all the girl time. A few of you reached out to me on Instagram asking for the best places to go and eat in Palm Springs, so I thought I would round up all my Palm Springs bachelorette party recommendations for you here.
Decor
My girls absolutely killed it in the decor department. Right up until the day we left, Amazon delivered packages filled with the cutest decorations to my doorstep. Since we were hanging by the pool for much of the weekend, fun pool floats were a must…and let me tell you, they were they in abundance! Among my favorites was the giant diamond ring (a bachelorette party staple!), the mini bling ring drink holders, the pizza slice, and the flamingo!
Almost as soon as we arrived, the girls sent me and my girlfriend out for a grocery run while they set to work decorating the entire house. We stayed in this AirBnb, and loved it. It was a little tight for our group of 14 (shh, we went over capacity!) but for a slightly smaller group it would be perfect! The location was super central and the backyard was large enough for all of us to comfortably hang out all day and night. When we got back, the girls gave me a tour of the new and improved house featuring these adorable gold banners, scattered bride tribe balloons, and they even set out these cute personalized tumblers for everyone to use all weekend. My Sis/maid of honor used metallic marker to write the monograms, but it rubbed off my the end of the weekend, so I ordered these stickers off Etsy for the girls to reuse their cups during the wedding weekend. They turned out so adorable, and the seller was quick to ship and affordable!
We stayed in on Friday night and had a slumber party/movie night. We rented this amazing outdoor movie kit from Joymode. It came complete with a giant screen and projector, speaker system, popcorn machine (my fav!!!), blankets, and chairs all for less than $100. Joymode handles delivery and pick up door to door, and all the pieces come conveniently packaged together for easy transport. It is seriously the best thing ever. We loved the service so much, we used them again to rent lawn games for our wedding, and they even made us our own custom bundle!
Outfits
I did a whole video on YouTube dedicated to my bachelorette party outfits where I shared links to everything I packed for the weekend, so be sure to check that out if you haven’t yet. A few must haves were this comfy white cover up dress, a good white bikini (I can’t believe how cute and affordable that one is!), and a fun dress for the night out! I also lived in this lounge set all weekend and ever since, it’s so cute and cozy. Boohoo.com has a TON of cute bridal pieces on their site.
Restaurants & Nightlife
For dinner we went to Trio in downtown Palm Springs. They easily accommodated our huge group, and it was absolutely crawling with bachelorettes! I later learned (the hard way) that it’s because they make a giant chocolate penis cake….
Another must-try restaurant in Palm Springs is Birba. Their food is delicious and the atmosphere is so fun and lively! After dinner we hit some of the gay clubs and danced all night! We first stopped at Hunter’s which is where all of our Lisa Frank (any fellow 90’s kids?) dreams came true in this rainbow group picture. Some other great spots to visit are Bootlegger Tiki, and I’ve heard Chill Bar is awesome.
That’s all I have for now! I felt so spoiled all weekend, and loved soaking up every minute with my friends, it was the perfect escape from the pre-wedding chaos and stress. Truly the best recipe for a perfect bachelorette weekend is an amazing group of girls, some yummy drinks, and a gorgeous poolside view doesn’t hurt either. 😉
