You won't be able to fit everything into one weekend in Las Vegas, but this three-day itinerary packs the ultimate Vegas bachelorette experiences into one perfect party weekend.

Day 1

Morning: Inside the Venetian is Bouchon, a popular brunch spot serving French food and high-end brunch dishes.

Afternoon: It's time for a Vegas classic: The Ultimate Pool Party. At Daylight Beach at the Mandalay Bay, you can splash, soak up sun, and drink with live DJs and a great crowd. Consider booking a bachelorette package, where you'll get VIP entry, table service, bottles and food.

Evening: Head to the Venetian for your first dinner, this one at SushiSamba, which blends the Brazilian, Japanese, and Peruvian cuisine. Along with rolls like the Samba Strip (Maine lobster, mango, avocado and aji honey truffle) and the Lima (shrimp tempura, spicy king crab, and avocado) you'll find other specials like Ramen, Japanese Wagyu, and Sashimi Ceviche. From dinner head to the popular LINQ hotel for your night. Along with the High Roller (the world's tallest observation wheel) that you should take for a spin, you'll also find the Icebar, where you can don fur coats and drink specialty cocktails in a room made of 100 tons of ice. After a drink or two, head back into the heat at Drai's, where you'll find a multi-level rooftop and one of the most popular nightclubs on the strip. There are options for bottle service, plus live DJs and plenty of dancing.

Day 2

Morning: Your morning brunch comes with a little hair of the dog—sparkling rose all day. Enjoy the garden brunch at Primrose at the Monte Carlo Resort and Casino. The Mediterranean-style bistro offers shareable plates like avocado toast, deep-dish pancakes with almond cream, and breakfast croissants with bacon, egg, and gruyere. Plus, other bottomless beverages including bellinis, mimosas, and bloody Caesars.

Afternoon: Head to the Stratosphere for epic views of the strip and epic thrills. Take the elevator to the top of the 1,149-foot-tall SkyPod tower. Here you'll see the strip from above, plus the chance to take on thrills including the Big Shot, which catapults you to the tower's topmost point at 1,081 feet and down again, the Insanity mechanical arm that hangs over the side of the tower and dangles you 900-feet above the ground, and the X-Scream coaster which shoots you over the edge of the tower. The truly brave will take on the SkyJump, essentially bungee jumping from 108 floors above the city out of the SkyPod.

Evening: Dinner tonight is at Beauty & Essex in the Cosmopolitan hotel. In this chic, Manhattan-style lounge, you'll enjoy sharable American small bites like grilled cheese dumplings with tomato soup, Thai-style Deep-fried Shrimp, Tuna Poke Wonton Tacos, and don't miss the Beauty Wonder Wheel, with the chef's selections of desserts. Then it's time for a show: Thunder from Down Under at the Excalibur hotel. Featuring "Australia's Hottest Blokes'', this all-male venue puts on a show to rival Magic Mike. Shirtless dancers will have you cheering—and sometimes laughing—at their moves. And the bravest brides can be brought on stage for their own special dance.

Day 3

Morning: Sunday brunch in Vegas is the stuff of legacies and legends. You'll have plenty of options to choose from, but consider the Bacchanal Buffet in Caesars Palace, which is one of the most famous brunches on the strip. Menu items include truffle deviled eggs, red velvet pancakes, green applewood smoked wagyu, and acai breakfast bowls, among countless others.

Afternoon: Once you've had your fill, get some R&R in at a Vegas spa. The Spa at Wynn is a great spot for pure Vegas luxury, with spa menu options like massages, facials, and a plunge pool. If you'd rather something a little more active, consider trying your hand at pole dancing with a fun class at Night School 4 Girls. You'll get a workout, and your bride may feel even more prepared for the wedding night.

Evening: For the last night in Vegas, make it count with dinner at Catch at the Aria Hotel. Here you'll find the ultimate Vegas luxury, a seafood tower, along with other seafood options like truffle sashimi, lobster mac and herb-roasted branzino. End the evening at your choice of cocktail bars at the Venetian: the Electra Cocktail Club where your drinks come with live DJs and a club-like vibe; The Dorsey, with craft cocktails, wines, and punch in a lounge-style space; or the Rosina Cocktail Lounge, serving classic cocktails and plenty of bubbles.
