When it comes to bachelorette party destinations, Palm Springs is top-tier—and no one knows that better than our girl Jamie Brown who just celebrated her final fling before the ring with an unforgettable weekend in the desert. From a private chef whipping up bomb meals to sunrise yoga and even some seriously extra Manservants (yup, you read that right), this bach was
EVERYTHING.
So, grab your sunnies and a mojito because we’re taking you behind the scenes of this Palm Springs bachelorette with Jamie Brown and her ride-or-die SQUAD.
The Deets: Meet the Bride
“I'm originally from Illinois, but now I’m living my best desert life in Arizona with my hubby, our two cats, and our golden Nala,” Jamie tells us. “By day, I’m a teacher and by weekend, I’m all about exploring new spots—especially when it comes to brunch and adventures with my SQUAD."
Why Palm Springs? Because It's the Vibe
When it comes to bachelorette destinations, Palm Springs is the definition of vibes. So, when it came time to pick a location, Jamie Brown went with her gut and chose a place that was equal parts chill and party. “I wanted an Airbnb that was stunning, had its own privacy, but still close enough to the fun. It turned out to be perfect!” she says.
The BEST Part of the Bach? The Private Chef. Period.
No, seriously private chefs are like the ultimate bachelorette flex. And this crew had one of the best. “Our private chef, Kristin Michaels, was a total queen,” Jamie raves. “She made the whole experience so much fun—and let me tell you, the food was chef’s kiss.”
The gang got to choose from a killer menu: Italian, Spanish, Asian? You name it, Kristin cooked it—and the crew was living for it. Think empanadas, spring rolls, Bolognese pasta, and more. It wasn’t just the food that was lit, either. “Kristin’s personality was everything. We even had a cooking class with her, which made the experience super special.”
Yoga, Manservants, and Massages: Self-Care, But Make It Extra
You’d think yoga and massages would be enough to make a day in Palm Springs feel like a dream, but Jamie Brown and her SQUAD took it up a notch. The day kicked off with a private yoga session at sunrise (is there a more iconic way to start the day?) and wrapped up with on-demand massages and Manservants. Yes, Manservants. More on that in a second.
“We had a private yoga instructor come to our Airbnb, and the whole vibe was so peaceful. The lavender towels were everything,” Jamie explains. “Then, the Manservants came, and the party was ON. They served us drinks, helped with a photo shoot, and even organized some games. So much fun!”
And let’s not forget the massages—because when you’re on a bach, relaxation is mandatory. “We had two massage therapists come to the Airbnb and get everyone pampered. So good.”
Dining in Style: The Best Spots in PS
Palm Springs is packed with some next-level restaurants, so how did Jamie Brown and her SQUAD decide where to go? TikTok, duh. “My maid of honor found most of our spots on a Bach app and TikTok. The recommendations were all spot on.”
They hit up Las Casuelas for some serious Mexican vibes (one of Jamie's faves), Workshop Kitchen for a more upscale, trendy experience, and Boozehounds because it just had the coolest vibe. “All of them were perfect for our squad,” she says.
No Drama in This SQUAD
When you put together a group of friends from high school, college, and beyond, there’s always a risk of drama—but not this time. “We were super lucky,” says Jamie. “Everyone was so mature, and there were no issues at all. If there were any behind-the-scenes stress, no one brought it to me, which was so appreciated. The last thing the bride needs is extra stress!”
TL; DR: A Bachelorette Weekend You’ll Never Forget
The Jamie Brown crew’s Palm Springs bachelorette was truly next-level. From the private chef serving up major flavor to the Manservants getting the party started, it was an unforgettable trip. Plus, with yoga, massages, and a dreamy Airbnb, they got the perfect mix of relaxation and fun. And, of course, the squad kept it drama-free, making sure the bride could just vibe and enjoy the moment.
Looking for some serious inspo for your own bach party? Take notes from this Palm Springs crew—it’s all about good food, great vibes, and squad goals that make the trip one for the books.
Jamie Brown and her SQUAD proved that Palm Springs is the ultimate place to be if you want a
