Hey friends! In May, my bridal party threw me the most ICONIC Barbie Dream Bachelorette weekend! In this post, I’ve rounded up all the details–including our itinerary and links to the majority of my outfits! Keep scrolling for all things Barbie Bride🤍
The Itinerary
Full disclaimer, I cannot take ANY credit for the itinerary. Early on in the planning process, I told my bridal party that I wanted to be surprised. I gave some guidance as to wanting to go on a boat one day and I also picked the Barbie theme and all of my outfits. Otherwise, I showed up to the airport on the day we were leaving with no idea what to expect. Needless to say, my bridal party went above and beyond for me. They nailed this itinerary, and gave me the Barbie Bachelorette weekend of my dreams!
The Location: Cape Coral, Florida
We stayed at my Aunt and Uncle’s Florida home in Cape Coral, Florida. It was my first time visiting since they recently purchased the house in October 2021, and it was the perfect spot for my bachelorette weekend!
Barbie Dream Bach Day 1: Arrival & Pool day
We took an early flight out of New York down to Fort Meyers, Florida–and the Flight Crew on our JetBlue flight got the party started for us right away with complimentary bubbly! My sister/MOH made sure that we sat in the front row so that we were first to board and first the de-plane–which is SO important to me when I fly–and I was very grateful. Overall, we had a wonderful and quick 2.5 hour flight down to Fort Meyers.

My MOHs and bridesmaids went above and beyond with decorations and goodie bags for everyone. All ON THEME might I add! I was completely blown away by everything, and I felt so incredibly special.
For our first night, we had dinner at Gather–located down the street from my aunt’s house at the marina. I wore the Sara Two-Piece skirt set by Nadine Merabi with heels from DSW and clutch from Amazon (linked below).
Barbie Dream Bach Day 2: Pop-up Picnic on the Beach
But first…drinks 🙂

Picnics by the Sun at Fort Meyers Beach
This set up was giving Barbie Dream Bachelorette weekend…absolutely incredible!
The picnic was UNREAL. People on the beach kept stopping to take pictures. It was so beautiful, and we had the best time!

Night 2: Private Chef Dinner
Day 3: Boat Day
My boat outfit details are linked below. I created my booty veil with glitter tulle that I ordered on Amazon (exact tulle linked below). I used crazy glue to keep the bow in place and then attached a hair clip to the back of the bow so that I could clip the veil onto my bathing suit.
My girls chartered our boat and captain via “BoatSetter”–which is basically the AirB&B of the boat world. We spent the day drinking, dancing, sunbathing, and swimming in the gulf coast. It was hands down the best part of our trip. We were LIVING our best lives for sure.
& then we *attempted* to pull ourselves together for a pink themed dinner out in Fort Meyers beach….
I truly will never get over how iconic my Barbie Dream Bachelorette weekend was. My bridal party nailed every single detail! From the party bus airport pickup to the private chef dinner–I felt like royalty at all times. I’m forever grateful to my beautiful MOHs and bridesmaids for giving me the bachelorette of my dreams
& to my amazing Aunt & Uncle for allowing us to use their gorgeous Florida home.
I hope you enjoyed this post as much as I enjoyed creating it to share with you. If you’re a future bride or newly wed–let me know where you plan to have/had your bachelorette party in the comments below!!
