It’s no secret that Nashville is the bachelorette destination capital! So what’s the perfect timeframe for a bachelorette?? We recommend arriving on Thursday night and departing on Sunday late afternoon.

To help you plan your perfect getaway with your crew, we’ve created a detailed timeline outlining the activities and events for each day. This is the first version, and we plan to have many more, as you can plan your weekend in so many different ways!

Before we start, we should say, check out our preferred private drivers, whether it be Eric Jones (615) 818-5373 or Nashrovers (615) 589-1013), for more dependable rates and a better experience than Uber/Lyft. This must be coordinated in advance.

Thursday Night

Arrival into Nashville

Since most people will have spent half the day at work and flown into BNA airport, the first day of the bachelorette weekend should be relaxed and easy-going. Fortunately, you won’t have to worry about decorating, planning itineraries, or preparing party favors as you’ve already hired Little Miss Runaround to take care of everything. 

First nights dinner

We recommend your first night’s dinner to be take-out from Tutti Da Gio! The best new Italian take-out in Nashville. The Pesto Gnocchi is literally the best thing ever. But let’s be real, nothing on the menu is bad. You can’t go wrong with just a regular Margherita pizza!

Don’t forget to order the Bianco e Nero these are Chocolate Hazelnut Cream Puffs covered in ice cream! Your bachelorette crew will love it!

Casa Rosa

After dinner, the next stop can be the rooftop of Miranda Lambert’s Rooftop Bar at Casa Rosa for a laid-back evening in casual attire.

To end your first night, you go to Robert’s Western World for some classic country tunes and the best late-night food deals on Broadway. They have great options, whether it be the Doggone Special for $5 (Jumbo corndog, chips, and beer), French fries, or Cheese curds… they seriously have you covered.

Friday

Hey, ladies! Did you paint the town red last night in Nashville? It’s time to take a breather and recover with some yummy brunch and retail therapy in the cute 12 South neighborhood!

Buttermilk Ranch is where it’s at, and if you can rally the troops, aim to be there by 10:30 am. You might have to wait for a little, but who cares? It’s all part of the adventure, right?

So, grab your besties, put on your favorite outfits, and get ready to brunch and shop ’til you drop! Let’s make some unforgettable memories in Nashville, woo-hoo!

While you are waiting for your table at Buttermilk Ranch, grab a coffee from the Nashville staple Frothy Monkey at their grab-and-go counter inside.

If you still have time while waiting for your table you can do a little shopping, if they call you great! Just keep these stores in mind for afterward. The most budget-friendly and cute bachelorette-friendly boutique is Finnleys. Check it out for super cute sparkle clothes, NASH clothing, and super cute accessories.

After Finnleys check out Bullets and Pearls, this store has incredibly beautiful jewelry for under $20 each! The flower mural is also one-of-a-kind in Nashville and a great photo-op!

Another great spot to shop on your perfect bachelorette weekend is Ana’s favorite. Draper James, which happens to be Reese Witherspoon’s store! It’s also next to a super cute Draper James mural and one of the “I Believe in Nashville murals”. Why not have some great photos with your crew while brunching and shopping?? There’s nothing better!

Meet Kush & Ana

Nashville Enthusiasts

We are Kush & Ana Ratwani. We moved to Nashville in 2020 for Kush’s fellowship at Vanderbilt. When we moved here, the once vibrant music city, full of aspiring songwriters trying to be the next Carrie Underwood and pedal taverns full of brides to be was in a state of hibernation due to COVID. However, that was short-lived, and Nashville is now back to full speed! 

We have loved living in Nashville so much so over the last few years that we even got married here in 2021! We feel Nashville has so much to offer, and it would take months to experience everything. From boutique shops to James Beard award-winning restaurants, who can forget live music every night on Broadway?

We started “Grits & Grace” to blog about all of our favorite spots, highlighting why we love Nashville and why we firmly believe it’s the best city in the country! 

Let us be your local tour guides on your journey to the Music City.
