📆 Itinerary: Girls Trip / Bachelorette Party Weekend on Martha's Vineyard (2024)
a 3-day getaway itinerary with suggestions for where to eat, drink and adventure
Martha’s Vineyard is an ideal destination for a getaway with your besties! This itinerary is paired with our 💍 Martha's Vineyard Girls Trip / Bachelorette Party Planning Resources (2024)
In this itinerary we plan out a 3-day trip for a group of 6+ women looking to enjoy food, go shopping, relax, and see the best parts of Martha’s Vineyard. We’ve suggested alternate options for each suggestion. We’ve budgeted time to both go out for drinks and sit back and relax. Based on my experience, women often have a lot of energy on the first night and second day, but by the third day, they tend to feel more settled and want to relax.
