Trendy picnic setup

Scottsdale Arizona Bachelorette Party Picnic

These all-of-the-rage picnics are popular for a reason. They are over-the-top cute and the photos are always on point. While craftier individuals can set these up on their own, us mere mortals would do much better to hire someone to set it up for you.

From candlelit tabletops to sweet sitting pillows, to plant decorations the experts at My AZ Picnic will create the picnic scene of your dreams. They even offer bachelorette-specific packages that include a selfie stand and mimosa bar!

Cherry-on-top Scottsdale bachelorette backyard party extras

Now that you have your royalty-worthy backyard party planned, it’s down to the tiny details to make it extra memorable!

Citrus jello shot

Everyone loves a throwback to the college-frat-party-football-tailgate days, but let’s make it a lot tastier. Jello shots held in citrus rinds take the standard jello shot to cuter (and more sustainable) levels. We absolutely love this recipe for pink lemonade jello shots!

A cute photo spot

When you’re having a great time, you need a great photo to match.

Don’t overlook the convenience of setting up the perfect spot to take adorable selfies and group shots. In the privacy of your backyard, your girls will be able to take their time and get as goofy as they want to take the perfect snapshot. 

Whether it’s a cute balloon setup over the patio or a sweet floral arrangement with colors that really pop, a background that looks really nice will look way better than just a fence background.

 

You can celebrate in style without ever leaving your house! Your bachelorette group deserves more than some beers and hotdogs – make your backyard the perfect party scene. And if you need other great ideas (and VIP deals), check out our ultimate guide to a Scottsdale Bachelorette party here!
