It’s finally here. They popped the question. You said yes, and the squad is desperate to celebrate. It’s time to plan the bachelorette party of your dreams. Only one problem: it’s 2021, and we’re still in the age of COVID-19.
Don’t squash those dreams just yet! There’s a giant, glittery silver lining. This cultural shift is inspiring innovation and originality. It’s time for something new.
We’re kicking those old, traditional bachelorette party ideas to the curb and getting creative. It’s 2021, after all. Let’s party like it.
Check out our list of top 5 bachelorette party trends for 2021 and prepare to flood your Instagram with memories everyone will be talking about. Get ready for a unique, celebratory bash worthy of all the wedding hashtags.
1. Rent Your Dream House
Many bridal parties are switching out restaurant reservations with Airbnbs and private house rentals to gain total control over their setting. Especially now, as everyone is desperate to celebrate their postponed events, public spaces will become even more cluttered. Don’t get caught in the chaos! Spend a weekend away from competing parties and let the fun come to you.
This year has revealed who is most important in our lives. Renting your own space gives your bridal party the luxury of an intimate, safe experience shared between the best of them. You don’t need to host a giant party to make the most of your bachelorette experience. Sometimes the most lasting memories happen with only our nearest and dearest. Whether you’re basking in the sunkissed glow of your own private Naples villa or staying in Chicago for sophisticated, luxurious penthouse views, give your crew space of their own to ensure complete freedom for relaxation.
The best thing about renting out your getaway? You don’t have to compromise on unique experiences in the hunt for privacy. All of our bachelorette events are customizable to accommodate your bash. Looking for speakeasy vibes? Check out our Mixology 101 class, complete with once forbidden cocktails and an expert mixologist to guide you.
We’re happy to stop by with high-quality entertainment, wherever your dream party house may be.
2. Make Creative Memories
When it comes to high-quality, memorable entertainment, try breaking tradition with something new. Crafty experiences are gaining popularity for a reason: not only are they fun, but they’re also unconventional. Every group brings something unique to the table and leaves the event with their creation.
From painting with coffee to crafting beautiful flower crowns, Art Room Events has a variety of expert-led, creative options to help you unleash your inner artist. If you’re looking to spice up your artistry, check out our private art party. This event comes with champagne, a trained art instructor, and a best of all: a live nude model. Your crew will each bring home their sketch and plenty of steamy memories.
Get your creativity flowing (along with some bubbles) to inspire hands-on, laughter-filled memories with your bridesmaids.
3. Indulge in Local Flavors
This past year has revealed: how important it is to shop small and support local businesses. Wherever you choose to celebrate, please take advantage of their local charm to give your bachelorette party the ultimate destination flair.
Most cities offer private guides and personalized experiences to highlight their best attributes. From restaurant hopping, haunted tours, craft beer tastings, and more, we guarantee there are more incredible things to discover outside of your traditional bachelorette party package.
If you’re not looking to travel, there’s good news! You don’t have to. Turn your bachelorette into a staycation and discover hidden gems buried in your city. Did you know that Chicago’s fierce burlesque and striptease scene was rooted in the early 1900s? Celebrate our city’s historic, avant-garde burlesque queens with a private burlesque class for your crew!
It’s easy to tailor your experience. Just keep your destination in mind. If you’re heading to Nashville, why not give line dancing with a real, country dancing cowboy a shot? Or check out a food tour for a delicious blend of elevated Southern cuisine and comfort food, and engage with the culinary artists responsible for your new soul food addiction.
Off-the-beaten-path experiences, especially those inspired by your destination city, are a fantastic way to build lasting bachelorette memories, all while connecting with culture and supporting local businesses.
4. Go for All Natural Views
After spending 2020 locked indoors, now is a better time than ever to get outside for a rejuvenating breath of fresh air and real, beautiful views. Whether your crew prefers a glamorous mountain escape, a beach bash, or campfire glows for something a little more rustic. There are many ways to celebrate the great outdoors this year.
Summer is fast approaching, and nothing screams bachelorette bliss like boating season. Stop scrolling through those sunny photos on your Instagram feed and discover your paradise. Get your squad on the water and dive into summertime with a tiki boat party. Art Room Events has paired with Chicago’s best boat company to provide memorable bachelorette experiences for the bikini-clad bride and her crew. Our boats come in various sizes and styles, so we have something for everyone. Most of our boats are dog-friendly, BYOB, and equipped with water slides to ensure you have everything you need to make the most out of your day on the water.
No matter how you incorporate the outdoors into your party, you’re sure to make memories filled with relaxation, quality time, and plenty of gorgeous photos to look back on.
5. Ditch the Stress With a Wellness Retreat
If there’s one word that we’re all associating with 2020, it’s stress. What better way to celebrate a new chapter in your life than by kicking those negative vibes to the curb?
Relaxation comes in many forms. Whether that’s popping a bottle of signature Rosé on the rooftop at Hampton Social, or heading to the spa for a full-day experience, going the wellness route means you get to choose what relaxes you. Wellness weekends are designed to treat you and your crew, so there’s no need to force traditional standards.
Art Room Events offers various health and wellness experiences, including massages and private yoga classes. Feel free to mix and match events to accommodate your taste, or throw something exciting into the mix, like a post-massage wine tasting.
Wedding planning is stressful enough, much less during the aftermath of 2020. Being a modern bride means breaking from bachelorette parties of the past and looking inward. A wellness weekend might be just what you and your crew need to unwind, bond, and prepare for the exciting wedding journey ahead.
It’s time to toss traditional bachelorette party expectations aside. You and your squad deserve to make lasting memories that fit your lifestyle.
Whether you’re seeking adventure, creativity, delicious food, or simply a stress-free weekend to bond with your bridesmaids, the bachelorette party is yours to customize, and Art Room Events is here to help.
