Forget having to make a big speech—the hardest thing a maid of honor has to do is plan the bachelorette party. Whether you’re thinking of traveling near or far, packing the days with activities that appeal to your whole group without breaking the budget is a challenge. So, we’ve done the “party math” for you with these affordable yet fun bachelorette party ideas from coast to coast.

Strut and sip around town in Nashville, Tennessee

The proximity of bars, restaurants and live music downtown make Nashville a perfect destination for a rocking bach weekend.

The Music City’s compact downtown is filled with bars, restaurants and places to catch a concert, so you can fit a lot into a little bit of time. Plan your bar crawl while pre-gaming aboard a party bus that Nashville is famous for: the Honky Tonk Party Express. This open-air party on wheels is BYOB, with weekdays cheapest for private tours. It’s a fun idea for any bachelorette party and doubles as group transportation. Then, head to Robert’s Western World, a honky-tonk loved by locals and tourists for its bargain-priced drinks, nightly live music and quirky décor (it doubles as a boot store). Afterwards, drop into any of the other bars on Broadway and see why a Nashville bachelorette party just doesn’t stop.

Party in the dark in San Antonio, Texas

Your bachelorette party can finish after a day of underground adventure and roller skating.

This historic Texas city is filled with Instagram-worthy outdoor adventures—even underground. Tour the Natural Bridge Caverns, where you can go 180 feet below ground to marvel at jaw-dropping rock formations that also happen to make the perfect backdrop for group photos. For an experience that’s more “throwback” than “ancient,” head to the Car-Vel Skate Center, where you can relive your childhood memories under neon lights. Refuel at a taco stand, and then get your group to famous bachelorette party destinations like Howl at the Moon, known for its buckets of drinks as well as its party anthem playlists.

Learn something new in Charleston, South Carolina

The large number of bars lining Charleston’s historic King Street make it an ideal location for a pub tour and one of the best bachelorette party destinations.

Taking a class together is definitely one of the more unique bachelorette ideas, especially when it’s a candle-making class at Candlefish. Here, you can combine an activity, a souvenir and a wine tasting (it’s BYO!) all in one, giving you a lot of bang for your bachelorette party buck. Then, sample local cuisine while you shop at the Charleston City Market. Can’t decide on a bar? Take the Upper King Street Pub Tour to sip on a drink at a few standout bars while you learn about the rich history of the area.

Bounce around in Chicago, Illinois

Unique bachelorette ideas in Chicago include a magic show with food and cocktails or a ping-pong lounge featuring DJs and award-winning mixologists.

Introduce your group to the quirkier side of Chicago and you’ll find no shortage of fun, cheap bachelorette party ideas. Meet up for card tricks and old-school cocktails at the Chicago Magic Lounge, where inhibitions gradually disappear. Then, head up to River North and go underground to get to AceBounce, a huge ping-pong lounge that also has mixologists and DJs for the not-so-paddle-proficient.

Meet party animals in Los Angeles, California

L.A.’s Animal Tracks animal sanctuary cares for several unique species of mammals, reptiles, birds and even a few creepy-crawlies.

Los Angeles isn’t exactly known for nature, which is why a visit to the Animal Tracks animal sanctuary makes for a fun bachelorette party idea. There, you can meet monkeys, fennec foxes and a range of other cute animals up close. Prefer to keep your distance? Get on board the Malibu Wine Safari, where you’ll see zebras, camels, a giraffe named Stanley and other big animals while you sip local wines.

Eat and be entertained in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Bachelorette party wake-up call: Refresh your group in the morning with a themed drag queen brunch in Philadelphia.

Philly has a thriving culinary scene, but if you have the type of group who wants more than quiet conversation, start your day with a Drag Diva Brunch. Weekly themes vary from Disney to 80s and from Harry Potter to Madonna, so check before you book if your bride has a favorite. For something a little less raucous, plan a dinner at the Marrakesh Restaurant, where you can enjoy a Moroccan feast while watching belly dancers.

Float high above Scottsdale, Arizona

Take your bachelorette party besties for a flight over Scottsdale—or let them follow along with the chase crew safe on the ground.

As one of the country’s best bachelorette party destinations, this desert city will treat you to a beautiful view no matter where you look—but especially while your group drifts high above in a balloon with Hot Air Expeditions. (If you have a few who are afraid of heights, they can watch the fun as they sip champagne with the chase crew ride along add-on.) Or get up close and personal with stunning scenery at the McDowell Sonoran Preserve, home to eye-catching cacti and a range of wildlife. If you prefer to hike for deals instead, take the free downtown trolley to the Scottsdale Fashion Square and Scottsdale Waterfront malls.

Sing your heart out in San Francisco, California

Another of the best bachelorette party destinations is San Francisco’s The Castro Theater, where you and your group can sing along to movie musicals.

San Francisco’s hills are alive with the sound of you and your friends belting it out at The Castro Theater, where the monthly singalong to movie musicals is one of the most fun bachelorette party ideas. Need a little liquid courage to sing, even in a big group setting? Before you go, drink up around the corner at the Last Call Bar, home to San Francisco’s longest happy hour. For a more intimate experience, visit the Dueling Pianos at Foley’s, where seating is limited but the requests aren’t (they’ll even play Journey’s Don’t Stop Believin’).

Soak up the sun in Miami, Florida

You can bring your bachelorette crew aboard a sailboat in Miami, Florida, and enjoy champagne, cheese and professional photos for about $25 per person.

You don’t have to spend a ton to enjoy the beach, arguably the best thing Miami has to offer. If you’ve already been there and done that, get out on the water instead with a bachelorette cruise via Sailing on Biscayne Bay tours. (The four-hour cruise includes champagne, a cheese platter, a photoshoot and great views for a cost that breaks down to about $25/per person/per hour.) Afterward, try another VIP-adjacent experience by visiting the Miami Mojito Company in the Wynwood Art District. This tucked-away bar has a very limited capacity, so it feels like you’ve rented out the whole place when you’re there with a small but fun group.

Wine and unwind in Seattle, Washington

A hot tub boat in Seattle, Washington, is one of the best ways to relax with your bachelorette party on the open water.

Seattle shed its grunge phase for a startup, workaholic culture ages ago, but the city still knows how to enjoy its downtime. The Seattle Wine Passport is a fun bachelorette party idea that won’t break the bank. The $60 ticket grants you access to tastings at 10 locations (and it includes $50 in Lyft credits). Break up this potential all-day activity with a two-hour soak in a Hot Tub Boat, the ultimate in unique bachelorette ideas.
