The Best Fall Bachelorette Party Destinations
Fall is one of my favorite times of year. It's also a great time to plan a bachelorette party, because most places are less crowded (and less hot!). Whether you are a bride looking for the perfect bachelorette party destination or the maid of honor planning the best place for your bride, there are plenty of amazing bachelorette party destinations. From party cities to beach towns to full relaxation mode - there is a destination for whatever a bride is looking for. Here are the 10 best Fall bachelorette party destinations:
1: Charleston, South Carolina
Perfect for the bride who loves: Great food (& charm!)
Charleston has quickly become one of the most popular USA bachelorette party destinations. There is also something about its charm that makes it an ideal spot for brides. Charleston also has beautiful beaches, amazing food, fun bars, and endless Instagram-worthy photo spots. The weather cools off in the Fall and things are a little less crowded.

2: Savannah, Georgia
Perfect for the bride who loves: History
Savannah's historic district is another spot with a charming backdrop. The cobblestone streets and historic architecture are perfect for photo-ops. It's a little smaller and less crowded than Charleston, so it would be a quieter option if that's what your bride is looking for. Savannah is also one of the most haunted cities in the USA, making it perfect if your bride is looking for something spooky to do (aka a ghost tour).
3: Sedona, Arizona
Perfect For the bride who loves: Nature
Sedona is the perfect spot if you're looking for somewhere relaxing with great hikes and beautiful views. It's not known for having traditional Fall foliage. BUT, its red rocks create a beautiful backdrop when contrasted with the Fall colors of the red rocks. You'll enjoy all of Sedona's beauty everywhere you go. There are plenty of hikes to keep you active, and, of course, pink jeep tours if you're feeling adventurous. You can also head to a few of the wineries that are just a short drive from the downtown area. And, of course, there are great spas if you want to add a spa day to the itinerary.
4: Nashville, Tennessee
Perfect For the bride who loves: Country music
If your bride is a country music fan, Nashville is your spot. The obvious place to spend most of your time on the bachelorette is Broadway. You'll find enough country bars up and down the street to last your entire weekend. Aside from country bar hopping, you can rent a pontoon boat and have fun on the Cumberland River. Nashville also is home to many delicious food spots. Like Charleston, the weather starts to cool down significantly in the Fall too.

5: Palm Springs, California
Perfect for the bride who loves: Retro Hollywood glam vibes
Palm Springs is ideal for the bride who wants to lounge by the pool all day and enjoy great restaurants and cocktails at night. With its retro Hollywood glam, you'll snap endless great pics too. Most importantly, the weather in Palm Springs is pretty great all year round, making it one of the best Fall bachelorette party destinations.

6: Napa Valley, California
Perfect for the bride who loves: Wine
Napa Valley is the clear frontrunner destination for brides who love their wine and want a more slow-paced bachelorette party. With dozens of amazing wineries to tour (and even a Wine Train), you'll have plenty of options to choose from. The food scene is also pretty great. While California isn't really known for its "seasons", Napa Valley is as beautiful as Fall gets in California.
7: Scottsdale, Arizona
Perfect for the bride who loves: Laid-back Desert vibes
Scottsdale is another destination that has great weather for the majority of the year. But, it's especially nice in the Fall after the Summer heat cools off. There are great nightclubs, wineries, pool parties, and spas making it perfect for a more lively and/or laid-back bachelorette party.

8: New York City, New York
Perfect for the bride who loves: City-Life
In my opinion, Fall is one of the best times to visit New York City. NYC might not be an obvious choice when thinking of one of the best Fall bachelorette party destinations, but it should not be overlooked. NYC is perfect for the bride who wants a little bit of everything mixed with a fabulous city vibe. You'll have plenty of nightclubs, unique (and delicious) restaurants, shows, and sightseeing to choose from.
9: New Orleans, Louisiana
Perfect for the bride who loves: Vibrance Mixed In With History
New Orleans is one of the top bachelorette destinations in the South. It's a lively city, filled with rich culture and history. There are plenty of bars on the famous Bourbon Street for the bride who wants to enjoy the party scene. New Orleans is also home to amazing restaurants and dozens of live music spots (most notably, jazz). New Orleans is another town that has ghost tours - so it's the perfect bachelorette party destination if you're going around Halloween!
10: Miami, Florida
Perfect for the bride who loves: The Beach (+ Nightlife!)
Last, but certainly not least on my list of the best Fall bachelorette party destinations is Miami. If you’re looking for a typical bachelorette party destination, Miami has just about everything you could want. The nightlife, gorgeous beaches, and overall vibe make Miami the perfect location for the bride who is looking to have a good time. Think Vegas, but with beaches and so much culture. The weather is still warm, but not unbearably warm, and the city is just as lively.
