16 Fun Things To Do This Summer With Your Friends

“I’m up for absolutely anything… you guys pick!!!”- The text we all send to the group chat when we have absolutely no idea what to do! Let’s be honest, making plans with friends is hard! Not because they make it difficult, but simply because sometimes you just want to do something new, but have no idea what. So after literally going through this scenario the other day, I figured I can’t be the only one out there struggling with ideas! So here are 16 fun things I thought up of to do this summer with your best gal friends!

1. Have a DIY pizza night.

2. Take a workout dance class.

3. Have a mini stay-cation: Hotels Tonight is actually awesome for finding great deals for a night or even a quick weekend stay-cation.

4. Research local events: Facebook events is your friend! There are actually a lot of cool things posted on there.

5. Play bartender for the night and have a cocktail making competition.

6. Host a board game night: Or take it to the next level and do a murder mystery party… you know, live out those Lizzie McGuire dreams… IYKYK!

7. Full beach day: Pack the rosé and fruit pleaseeeee

8. Wine tasting night: Everyone brings a different type of wine, don’t forget the cheese/crackers and have your very own wine tasting getty

9. Go out on the boat for a day/or rent one

10. Get into tie-dying: Make the perfect beach accessories…think hair scarf, t-shirts, cover ups, beach blanket…you get the idea.

11. Feel good spa day: Spend the day pampering with DIY facials, a manicure, make a pit stop at the tanning salon, head over to a blow dry bar, and then go out for the night

12. Pool day: Get fun inflatables, make some sangria, and blast your favorite playlist

13. Food tasting tour of restaurants in your area

14. Karaoke night: I’ve actually been dying to do this! What would be your go-to Karaoke song?!

15. Host a themed get together for a movie premiere or series finale/starter: I love doing this for the Bachelor franchise! Now with the finale next week and Bachelor in Paradise right around the corner, this is perfect!

16. Try venturing out to a new side of town: Instead of your usual, try some place different. For example if you’re from Miami you can go down to the Keys for the day, or Las Olas beach.
