I chose Scottsdale for my bachelorette trip and it lived up to the hype. In total, there were 10 girls on the trip including me. My best friend and I teamed up to create the itinerary and handle reservations.
Initial planning included a google form to capture destination choice, budget goals, Airbnb opinions, and flight options. Our biggest goal was mutual agreement on all of the activities and costs. My bestie and I tried to also include a mix of on-the-go moments and down time to relax. Overall feedback was positive for the variety of down time and activities and everyone let the trip feeling like they got to have a vacation, too.
Below is the actual itinerary I sent to my guests. Quick reviews over all the locations and activities are included below the corresponding day.

^A page to include important information and expected and agreed upon costs. |

^ I assigned who was going to sleep together so no one felt awkward about their arrangements or asking someone. |

^ -We ended up loving Wine Girl, and they did not end up holding us to a minimum spend. They were very catered to bachelorette parties and made me feel special by adding my name to a bride-to-be board and gave me a complimentary glass of champagne with a 'wifey' necklace. -Crust Brothers was delicious! We got four pizzas for 10 and it turned out to be $15 including tip for the delivery. It also served as a great late-night snack. The idea was to do a pizza and pajama party. My best friend surprised me with a lingerie party during it as well! |
I included all the outfits I planned on wearing to give insight to my friends on what the outfit vibes are.

^ -Something I did not include on the itinerary was morning walks or breakfast options. We purchased a few snacks, but let everyone know they are on their own for breakfast. -Pole dancing with Violet Flame was great! Nylah was informative and valued our time and safety. -The Herb Box was delicious and served as a great meal next to the pool. The portions were larger, too. -We agreed Farm & Craft would have been a better option for lunch. It was feeling a bit healthy for our binge drinking plans afterward. -AZ/88 is a MUST-GO. My friends loved their espresso martinis (we got it with tequila in it). We ended up taking the local golf carts to the main bar area afterward and hung out at Bevvy. |

^ -Olive + Ivy was fabulous with the perfect outdoor vibes. We were close to a lot of shopping, so we took a quick walk around and got some cute Scottsdale souvenirs. Afterward, it was considered free time - some napped, some shopped more, and some laid by the pool. -Sumomaya was delicious. We planned on this being the big food and drinking night, and it did not disappoint. Definitely a great place to share entrees and apps. -Bottled Blonde was absolutely atrocious. The security there SCREAMED at us and some even pushed other groups out of the way. The vibes were terrible and we left within 10 minutes of being there. We ended up going to Maya and Bevvy where we met promoters who gave us tables.
