Grand Rapids is the perfect blend of urban chic and natural beauty, making it the ultimate playground for a bachelorette bash. From sipping craft cocktails at trendy rooftop bars to exploring the vibrant arts scene, there's something for every bride-to-be and her squad. So, get ready to plan a weekend full of laughter, memories, just the right amount of mischief, and the trendy way you can capture these memories with Hipstr photo booths. 

Pick the Perfect Bachelorette Party Theme 

Let’s be real – every epic bachelorette party starts with a killer theme. Whether your bride tribe is into glitz and glam, or you’re more of the boho-chic type, picking a theme sets the tone for the entire weekend. Picture this: a ‘Last Disco’ night with sparkly outfits and glittery makeup, or maybe a ‘Wild West’ adventure with cowboy hats and boots for some yeehaw fun. Whatever you choose, make sure it reflects the bride’s personality – after all, this weekend is all about her!

There is no shame in a calm spa weekend and no judgment in a weekend filled with pub crawls and karaoke until midnight either.
