A Party if You Want to Get Dressed Up and Go Out!
For an evening out on the town with your girls, decked out in sashes, crowns, and your tallest heels (or cowboy boots), you don’t have to look very hard in Austin to plan a memorable bachelorette party in Texas.
Drink margaritas and take selfies during golden hour at the Oasis overlooking Lake Travis. On your night out on the town, stop at Cap City Comedy, because nothing brings friends together like laughing until it hurts. If you’re feeling brave, maybe you’ll end up on stage during their open mic nights. Finally, pop into the Sahara Lounge, enjoy signature cocktails, it’s a great spot to dance the night away to African, Middle Eastern, and Latin music and have a really good time.
A Texas Bachelorette Party That’s Like Summer Camp
Travel back to your days at summer camp and fill your weekend with fun activities at Camp Lucy in Dripping Springs. From wine tours through their on-property vineyards, to hiking, painting, yoga, meditation, fishing, archery, throwing hatchets, and feeding alpacas, you and your girlfriends have every opportunity to plan the most adventurous Texas bachelorette party all in one place.

Party on The Beach
What’s more luxurious than a bachelorette weekend getaway at the beach? Galveston offers a tropical location without the costs that come with overseas trips and stays. The San Luis Resort is better than a beach house, because it has pools with a swim-up bar, cabanas, beach views, a spa, and several restaurant options. Take an adventure down to Pleasure Pier, an amusement park by the water which is a great place to let your hair down.
Just pack your bathing suit and prepare for some fun bonding time with the girls before the big day.

A Texas Bachelorette Party for Smaller Groups
Lake Texoma is just right if you’re making plans for a smaller bachelorette party. Start your day driving a real-life bulldozer at the Extreme Sandbox. Action shots aren’t just for axe-throwing bachelor parties anymore! Take a trip into the nearby town of Denison for lunch. Then, head back to your cabin for a little afternoon relaxation time.
Swing in a hammock and gaze out at the water. You could also rent a boat and paddle to Party Cove or drive over to Island View Park for a beach picnic. For even more adventure, rent kayaks to explore Lake Texoma more extensively or go for a hike to the caves along Waterloo Lake. Fastrac Boat Charters is known for its sunset dinner cruises, so you and your ladies can spend a glamorous evening on the water before turning in for the night.
A Texas Bachelorette Party Full of Relaxation
The Miraval Resort in Austin is a great way to treat the bride-to-be and her closest friends to a much deserved recharge. After all, wedding planning can be stressful. Book a massage or a facial or even a full-on spa day and indulge in the view from the infinity style pool overlooking the Texas Hill Country.
Planning a bachelorette party in the winter? There are even heated pools and a hot tub for you to enjoy. Before arriving, book classes online to fill your day with activities to keep the relaxation going.

A Texas Bachelorette Party with Shopping
Nestled in the small Texas town of Boerne is the Hill Country Mile, a strip mall of boutiques, breweries, and delicious restaurants all within walking distance of one another. Settle into your room(s) at The Kendall, an affordable, rustic hotel that sits along the Hill Country Mile. This means all you have to do is walk to your first activity to commence your Texas bachelorette party!
Sip on flights at Cibolo Creek Brewing Co. and Tusculum Brewing Company or take your drink with you while you explore. Book the secret champagne room at Salvador Dobbs, a local 1920’s-themed bar, to celebrate in style. What’s more important on a girl’s vacay than supporting other women? Simply stop into Girl with Grit, a non-profit that uses the proceeds from its sales and fundraisers to introduce girls to diverse career paths.
If you happen to be in Boerne on a Saturday, visit the farmers market at Herff Farms, tour its historic home, and do yoga.

Plan Your Party Outdoors
If your group of gal pals is the adventurous type, you need to check out Garner State Park near Concan. Rent a paddle boat, play mini golf, float down the river on a tube, hike Old Mount Baldy Trail, and venture through White Rock Cave. Wear your swimsuit under your hiking clothes and take a dip in the shallow water along Blinn River Trail.
Want to cool off without hiking? Drive over to Mager’s Crossing where you can lounge by the water with a view of Mount Baldy. Order Southern comfort food at Neal’s and then ice cream at The Frio Float Even do some shopping and take pictures for your feed in front of Concan’s pink truck.
To close out your day, book a tiny home or a cottage at the Inn Between. Before you check-in, take a look at the art on the Mangonada bus, which is owned by the operators of the Inn. Once you’re settled, pour some champagne, and once it’s dark, you’ll be amazed at the number of stars in the sky.
Plan an Affordable Road Trip
If you’re looking for a daytrip to celebrate, Beaumont has a little bit of everything to fill your day with fun. Snap pictures in front of the largest working fire hydrant, learn about the history of firefighting at the Fire Museum of Texas. Next, head to Art Museum of Southeast Texas, then walk through the Beaumont Botanical Gardens and the Binks Horticulture Center.
Lastly, you can visit Spindletop Gladys City Boomtown to learn about Beaumont’s first moments as a booming oil town and admire the St. Anthony Cathedral.

A Texas Bachelorette Party with Crafts
Farmersville can offer you a getaway for a craft-filled, laid-back Texas bachelorette party. Start with a charcuterie brunch board at Bottles and Boards and pop back in later for a cocktail or some dinner. Take in the 1920’s history along Main Street and learn about the importance of onions to this Texas town at the Farmersville Heritage Museum.
Shop for the bride-to-be’s “something old” at the antique shops along the way. Create a unique souvenir to take home with you at one of the many crafting shops in Farmersville, no matter your experience level.
Or change into something comfy and take a yoga class at the Ville Studio. For a pick-me-up, check out 12 Stories Coffee for a latte or hot chocolate, and a sweet treat, or attend a tea party at the Honaker House. There is also a lady’s parlor for an indoor option.

A Texas Bachelorette Party without Driving
San Antonio is known for being home to the River Walk. However, there are more than restaurants to explore. Take in all the colors and culture at El Mercado. Visit La Villita and shop for local, hand-crafted items to remember your trip. Visit Esquire Tavern, a secret Spanish speakeasy on the River Walk.
In the shops across the street from the Alamo is Ripley’s Believe It or Not Odditorium, complete with a wax museum. Then, just cross the street and get a glimpse of one of the most notorious Texas landmarks.
Stroll along the River Walk and watch the river taxis of Rio Cruises go by. If you happen to hop on one, you’ll get a narrated tour about the history of the River Walk and the buildings surrounding it. You could even hop on a river shuttle that takes you to the Witte Museum, the boutiques of the Historic Pearl District, the Japanese Tea Gardens, the San Antonio Museum of Art, and the San Antonio Zoo.
Also, plan a night out and celebrate at the Kremlin nightclub or go salsa dancing at Rosario’s. The Pearl District is another awesome nighttime destination for drinks and dinner.
A Luxurious Bachelorette Party
Book a room at the Omni Dallas and spoil yourself and your girls for the weekend. With plenty of space to spread out, take this time to pamper yourselves. Unpack the nail polish, face masks, make-up, and comfy pajamas. Put on your favorite rom-com and enjoy some girl time. Or book a massage at the Mokara Spa.
And nothing says Texas like swimming, and the Omni Dallas pool offers great views of the city below. If you’re planning a winter bachelorette party, their pool is heated, and a hot tub is available as well.
Next, grab a bite at The Owner’s Box and flash that bride-to-be sash. Less than 2 miles from your hotel is the hip, downtown area of Deep Ellum. With a one-of-a-kind night scene, live music, and delicious restaurants that offer various types of dining experiences, from upscale to laid back, it’ll be the perfect place to add to your evening (or afternoon) itinerary while partying it up in Dallas.
