While the bright city lights of Manhattan might first come to mind when planning a New York City bachelorette party, don’t count out its borough neighbor, Brooklyn. In recent years Brooklyn has become increasingly popular. It’s the perfect spot for celebrating your favorite bride-to-be.

Hotels in Brooklyn have more to offer than accommodations. The McCarren Hotel & Pool sells day passes for its ultra chic and secluded rooftop pool during the summer months. Enjoy cocktails while catching some sun. Reservations are highly recommended. The Wythe Hotel is a popular address in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The property’s ground-floor restaurant Reynard is a perfect spot for lunch, dinner or brunch. Make you way to the rooftop bar The Ides for cocktails and stunning views of lower Manhattan.

Take a brewery and winery tour. Start in Red Hook at the Red Hook Winery. Open since 2008, the winery offers free tours on Saturday and Sunday to anyone who pays for the $15 wine tasting. Brooklyn Brewery is open daily and offers a variety of tours and tastings. Tours are free Friday–Sunday and depart every 30 minutes.

If the bride wants a dose of culture, check out the Brooklyn Museum, New York Transit Museum or Brooklyn Botanic Garden.

Brooklyn is home to a burgeoning restaurant scene, with cuisine to meet every taste. Whether the bride likes sushi, pierogis, pizza or barbecue, you’ll be able to find a place she loves.
