$500 tee times, private yachts: Bachelor(ette) trips are out of control
"The bachelor(ette) party has grown from a raucous night out with friends to costly group trips - the humble bar crawl replaced by a week in Bali."
"According to the wedding planning website Joy, the average bachelorette trip cost $1,300 to attend per person, up $600 from 2019."
"For Americans who move away from home for college, job opportunities or affordable housing, it's common to have a spread-out social network."
"How can you get them all together unless you plan a trip?"
Bachelorette trips have evolved from simple nights out to extravagant group vacations, with average costs rising to $1,300 per person in 2026. This increase reflects a broader trend where attendees spend $1,000 to $3,000 for a weekend getaway, with luxury options reaching $6,000. The rise in expenses is attributed to the need for friends to gather from various locations, making these trips a rare opportunity for connection. As a result, these events consume more time and financial resources than ever before.
