Happy Thanksgiving eve to all! I can’t believe that we’re officially about to start the “holiday season” – where has 2015 gone?!? Can we also talk about how Ryan & I have been engaged for almost a year? Crazy!!
Anyway, for today’s wedding Wednesday, we’re talking bachelorette parties and I need your advice. I don’t know if I’ve officially announced it on here, but my bachelorette party will be taking place in… Las Vegas!!
Excited is an understatement. This will be my first time visiting Sin City and I probably need to start training for this weekend like yesterday. There’s so much I want to see and do and from what I hear… I won’t be doing much sleeping.
To all my blogger friends that have ever been to Vegas, I need your help. I would love to hear any and all recommendations that you would like to offer up for our visit. We are staying at Aria and plan to see a show, eat some delicious food, hop to a club or two, and do a little gambling of course! Oh, and a pool party too! I’m also making it a point to ride that rollercoaster that’s on top of the Stratosphere building… that is, if anyone will do it with me.
What are some hot spots to hit? Any pool parties to recommend? What are some amazing restaurants or ones to avoid? What was your favorite show to see? Any tips or tricks on navigating Vegas would be highly appreciated. I seriously can’t wait ’til this epic girls weekend!!
I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday and make sure to check back Friday for lots of holiday sales you won’t want to miss! And if you haven’t already entered, be sure to check out the $325 Nordstrom gift card giveaway… only a few hours left. Enjoy your turkey day 🙂

Since you're staying at Aria, check out Julian Serrano! It's a tapas place, and the sangria is amazing! Also, if you start looking in advance, several of the clubs offer decent bottle service if you book in advance. We did bottle service at Lily in Bellagio for my friend's party, and it was very reasonably priced. I hope you have a great time, Vegas is always a great idea for a bachelorette party!

Omg the rollercoaster on top of the stratosphere is crazy! But I'm a chicken. We ate at the restaurant at the top of the stratosphere that rotates and it was amazing with 360 views of the city. We saw the people on the rollercoaster close up which gave me instant anxiety. lol If you're a thrill seeker then it's right for you. There is also a rollercoaster in the New York New York hotel which is a little more tame. Since it's a girls trip, you could also go to see the Brittany show or Celine Dion.

Girl you are gonna have such a blast!! I have been to Vegas 3 times now and the very last time (in May) was for my best friend's bachelorette party. Since it's your bachelorette, I recommend going to see Thunder from Down Under, it's such a fun show and trust me every girl at your party will love it. I suggest booking your seats early enough and sitting as close to the front as you can :)! Also at the Cosmo hotel there is secret pizza, I suggest finding it and eating it, sooooo good!! We went to Buddy V's restaurant for dinner one night and it was yummy, but I heard Giada's is great too! If you have any more questions let me know and I can try to help :)!

Stay central, its so much farther to each end than you anticipate it will be. The Cosmo is the hottest hotel & club right now, but don't miss the classics like drinks on the patio at the Bellagio while watching the water show and shopping at the Venetian. There is something for everyone there. You will have so much fun!

Love Vegas. You'll have a blast! Couple things to know when wanting to get around on the strip, the bus system is awesome. It's $8/ pass and the passes are good for 24 hours. I believe it will take you all the way to Luxor and the Vegas sign, and then all the way back to the bottom of the strip past Caesar's and whatever else is that way. Point is, great way to get around. We walked 15,000 steps the first day we were there and our dawgs were barking! We've seen quite a few shows and my absolute favorite is "O, Cirque Du Soleil" !! It's jaw dropping, amazing! "La Reve- The Dream" was my second favorite and it's another great show. Those two definitely represent the true Vegas experience. My third favorite was, "The Blue Man Group". It's affordable, yet fun for all ages. Don't forget to stop by "Sprinkles Cupcakes" while you're there. The rides on the stratosphere are awesome. I could not convince my boyfriend to go, but my sisters and I rode all three a couple years ago. Google the "Venetian Fountain" show times so you catch the full show. We watched two while we were there, and they were different, with different music. Vegas.com is great for all things Vegas related, shows, clubs, attractions, etc.

Ahhh so so so much fun!! I've never been to Vegas so I'm not much help with planning, but I seriously can't wait to hear all about your big weekend!

You girls are going to have an AMAZING time! Are you going while it's warm out, if so make sure you hit up one of the pool parties. As for shows, I vote for Britney! And you can't go wrong with Cirque du Soleil.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving gurlie <3

SO FUN!!! Y'all are going to have a blast! I went to Vegas a few years ago but honestly can't remember the names of any restaurants. However, we did ride that roller coaster and it's amazing!

Vegas is so much fun! You are going to have an amazing time. Hopefully you are going when the weather is warmer. Right now it's pretty chilly (I was there last week). I go frequently with my girlfriends to get away and relax/drink by the pool. We love Mandalay Bay. We stay at the Delano (private hotel/pool) on the Mandalay Bay property. The pools are amazing there. The Wynn has a gorgeous pool but it's pretty upscale. Many of the hotels have fun pools with great music/activities/relaxation.
