If YOU could plan your OWN bachelorette party

where would you go?

I am helping plan a bachelorette party for a friend on LI, but most of her bridesmaids, including me, are out of state, and unfamilar with the area. Everyone attending is over 21, and we would like to party, but nothing too too raunchy. The party would be over the summer, but I am no sure how many people. If you could answer these two questions for me it would be most appreciated!!

1. If money were no object, where would you want to have go for your bachelorette party?

2. Reality!- Money needs to be considered (though no one is super poor), so where in the LI/NYC would you love to go.

I figured most brides have an idea of what they wish their bachelorette party would be, so share them here! Be as specific as you want. Really any information would be helpful. Thanks everyone.

anyone know of a spa in NYC that would be conducive for a bachelorette party?

Also any information on a spa on Long Island.

What about the Hamptons? Anyway to make that affordable? How would you get around to different clubs or wineries?

Thanks!

BLISS - however it is a little pricey.

This is cheesy but I'm actually doing what I want to do. We're having a spa day for the girls and then everyone is going out for dinner. Everything will be fun but relaxing. I just wish that my OOT town bridal party members could make it though - one of them being my favorite cousin

As far as the Hamptons goes...get cabs or of course, if you can afford a limo.
I go go the Beach Bar every year and stay next door at Allen's Acres...not the best place but the convenience of walking home at 4am from the bar/club rocks!

A cruise around Manhattan, Broadway play, or ballet. Maybe I'm a dud bride--I should want to go to Vegas or someplace like it. But all the planning has left me tired and the last thing I want to do is travel (before the honeymoon anyway)! And I never got into the stripper thing.

I definitely agree with Vegas. Just 5 or 6 of my closest friends. We get all dressed up and go out and party all night.

well, I am planning my own bachelorette in part, but I'm also paying for part of it. That is the way I wanted it. I live in FL now and all my friends are still in NY so I'm having my bachelorette in South Beach and I just want to be at the beach all day, enjoy some spa time, and have a couple of nice dinners. (it will be Friday and Saturday night) I'm really not into going out clubbing or anything like that- I'd rather chill with my friends in the hotel room with some wine or martinis after dinner to be honest. LOL My sister is handling a lot of details about what we actually do... but I did choose the place (South Beach) and I am paying for one night and the girls are paying for the other night.
Just about all of my friends that are going are coming down for 5-7 days and making a vacation out of it too - I told them about it so far in advance that they really had time to plan and save $$$$. So my bachelorette will be on the weekend but lots of them will have the whole week to chill at the beach (while I'm at work!!! LOLOL)
