Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before choosing your bachelorette destination

New Orleans is the most affordable of the three, with most bars having no cover charge, open container laws that let you drink on the street, and lower hotel rates than Las Vegas. Nashville is a close second — Broadway bars are mostly free to enter. Las Vegas is the most expensive, with high cover charges, steep bottle service minimums, and premium hotel rates.

Nashville is the easiest city for large groups — Broadway honky-tonks are massive, have no cover charges, and are accustomed to bachelorette parties of all sizes. Las Vegas is also excellent for large groups with its mega-clubs and pool parties, though costs scale up significantly. New Orleans works well for large groups on Frenchmen Street and Bourbon Street.

All three cities have excellent drag shows. Nashville's Play Dance Bar is considered one of the best in the South. New Orleans' Oz on Bourbon Street has legendary drag performances with a balcony overlooking the street. Las Vegas' Piranha Nightclub hosts spectacular drag extravaganzas. Nashville and New Orleans tend to have more intimate, interactive shows where the queens involve the bride.

Nashville: Spring (March–May) and Fall (September–November) for mild weather and peak bachelorette season. New Orleans: Fall and Winter (October–February) to avoid the brutal summer heat and humidity. Las Vegas: Spring (March–May) and Fall (September–November) — summers are extremely hot (100°F+), but pool parties are at their peak.

Only New Orleans has legal open container laws — you can carry drinks in plastic cups throughout the French Quarter and most of the city 24/7. This is one of the most unique aspects of a New Orleans bachelorette party. Nashville and Las Vegas do not allow open containers on public streets, though Las Vegas casinos are connected and you can carry drinks within casino properties.
