Forget Vegas, The Woods Are The Hot New Bachelorette Destination

Share

Women enjoying a forest picnic surrounded by trees and delicious food

As with everything else in life, traveling is a little more complicated than it used to be. And, the thought of taking all of your besties to a club or a crowded bar for a bachelorette just seems a little too risky. Well, we’ve got the perfect open-air alternative! What about a bachelorette picnic in the woods? Just think about it, it’s just you and your pod, you can bring whatever food or beverages your little heart desires, and the pics will be beyond cute. So much better than a 2 am drunk pic in a club bathroom!

Juniper Gardens set out to create a bachelorette experience like no other. They wanted it to be relaxed but still super-cute and insta-worthy! Blue Daphne Events created the lovely florals for this woodland picnic and Taylor Jean Photography was there to capture every special moment. Keep reading to hear more from Juniper Gardens about how you can recreate this epic setup for your bachelorette party. Check out the full gallery to see all of the adorable photos from this shoot!

A FRESH (AIR) TAKE ON BACHELORETTE PARTIES

Brides have been asking for fresh ideas on bachelorette parties that allow them to truly engage with their closest friends, especially while travel has been uncertain. A luxury picnic in the woods could be just the solution. A party that doesn’t lack in style and can become the perfect backdrop for memories to be made. For this styled bachelorette party, a playlist of ABBA and Fleetwood Mac created the perfect soundtrack, along with the vintage plates and dishes. This day was filled with food, laughter, dancing in the woods, and fishing at the pond. Even finding ripe wild blackberries on the way to the pond.

DO IT YOURSELF

To recreate this magic for your bachelorette party, use an old door for a picnic table, designate a dress code (like vintage camp-wear), create a matching playlist, add seasonal flowers, and bring along your favorite foods to share. The true focus is on friendship and spending the extra time together. Keep it simple, add luxury details like flowers and exceptional food & drinks, and define a dress code to be camera-ready.
