To help with your planning, we've hand-picked a selection of the best things to do, restaurants and bars for an unforgettable bachelorette weekend the bride-to-be will love.
Nashville, Tennessee, is the ultimate “it girl” destination when it comes to bachelorette party spots. This stand out city offers the perfect mix of country music, vibrant nightlife, southern charm, and unforgettable experiences. Whether you’re planning a chill weekend with your closest friends or a more adventurous bachelorette party, Music City has the makings for the perfect trip for any bride-to-be.
What To Do:
Nashville is world-renowned for its poppin’ music scene, and there’s a live show happening just about anywhere at any time. Most brides tear it up on Broadway, the heart of Nashville’s music and nightlife scene. This vibrant and wild strip is lined with iconic honky-tonks blaring country, blues, rock, and jazz music starting around 10am daily. Iconic and historic venues like Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge and Robert’s Western World are perfect for sipping cocktails, hitting the dance floor, and discovering the magic of Nashville’s famous music culture.
Nashville’s newer hotspots are owned by famous country artists who regularly top the music charts. Let the whiskey talk at Morgan Wallen’s bar, or burn it up at Jason Aldean’s. If you want to try a Stag & Hen fave, head over to White Limozeen, Dolly Parton’s over-the-top pink themed rooftop bar. If you need more ideas, we have a full list of our fave Broadway bars, curated just for you! Nashville isn’t just for live music junkies, it has something to offer for lots of different brides!
If your group wants to sit, dip, and sip, the Nashville food scene is unbeatable, with no shortage of trendy coffee shops, farm-to-table restaurants, and southern-inspired hot chicken joints. Try out Bartaco for that authentic 12 South dining experience.
If the crew wants to shop until they drop, The Gulch and 12 South are the move. Both areas offer unique shopping experiences that feature a mix of eclectic local shops and high-end luxury stores. For groups seeking more than just barhopping, check out activities like booze cruising on the Cumberland River, or wine tasting at Arrington Vineyards. If the pilates princess bride wants a wellness spin on the weekend, book a group yoga class or a pole dancing class.
When To Visit:
The Nashville weather is pretty fair, making it a comfortable destination for a bachelorette trip most of the year. If we had to pick an ideal time to visit, we’d say spring (March through May) and fall (September through November) when temperatures range from the mid-60s to mid-70s, and the city comes to life with outdoor events and festivals. Rain or shine, Nashville offers tons of quaint outdoor patios, live music (be sure to check the concert schedule!), and southern hospitality.
How To Get There:
Getting to Nashville is probably pretty easy for most of the bach guests. Nashville International Airport (BNA) connects the city to most major hubs across the United States, making it convenient for out-of-town visitors. Once in Nashville, ride-sharing services, pedal taverns (a fun group transportation option), and walkable areas make exploring the city a breeze.
There’s a reason Nashville is jokingly called the Bachelorette Capital of the South — it guarantees a good time, every time. If you think Nashville is right for you and your crew, we have the perfect guide full of where to eat, sleep and party just for you.
