Local and Affordable Bachelorette Party Ideas
Your bachelorette party is a time to spoil yourself and make fun and lasting memories with your best friends. While the most popular bachelorette party consists of hopping from bar to bar wearing a sash and tiara (who doesn’t love a little extra attention?!), that itinerary isn’t for everyone. If you want to include younger members of your party or just aren’t huge on drinking, we’ve come up with a list of ideas that are both affordable and nearby!
Water Park
From Cedar Point Shores, to Castaway Bay, to Kalahari Resorts, there are water park options for all seasons! Relax on a lazy river, pump up the adrenaline on a speed racing slide, or catch up with your girls in the wave pool. This one is perfect for large groups, as you can all separate and do your own thing, yet meet up afterwards for dinner.
Canopy Adventures
If the weather is right, check out some of the outdoor adventures Northeast Ohio has to offer like Go Ape or Lake Erie Canopy Tours. You’ll swing from vines, walk across rocky bridges, zip line, and do rope challenges. This is definitely something to check off your bucket list, and what better time to do it than right before you make life’s biggest leap?!
Escape Room
Think you and your friends have what it takes to escape? Beat the clock and solve the puzzles in one of the area’s dozens of escape rooms! What’s great is that there are so many to choose from, so you can find the perfect theme for your group. Choose from lighthearted (perfect for kids), suspenseful, or even downright scary! No matter what, you’re bound to have a great time and make awesome memories.
