Starfall Spa & Wellness: An ACOTAR-Inspired Bachelorette Retreat

Planning a bachelorette party for the bride who needs a little rest and relaxation, but loves the magical, celestial world of ACOTAR? Look no further! Imagine combining the soothing vibes of a luxurious spa weekend with the elegance and mystique of the Night Court, where you and your closest friends can indulge in pampering treatments worthy of fae royalty. Welcome to Starfall Spa & Wellness, your ACOTAR-themed bachelorette retreat!

1. Location: Find Your Own Velaris

First up, find a serene, magical place to channel Velaris’ tranquility. The ideal destination for your spa weekend should be surrounded by nature, giving off “City of Starlight” vibes. Look for places in the mountains, by a lake, or even on the coast. Suggestions:

• Aspen, Colorado – Snow-capped mountains and luxurious retreats.
• Sedona, Arizona – Mystical desert vibes with spa resorts that offer energy healing.
• Lake Tahoe, California – Relax by the crystal blue waters and enjoy scenic beauty that matches the peace of Velaris.

2. Arrival: Welcoming Your Court

Welcome your bride-to-be and her court with personalized Velaris-themed welcome kits. Include:

• Moonstone & starlight candles
• Silk robes inspired by Night Court fashion
• Mini facial or body scrubs with celestial and floral scents
• Fairy lights and stars to decorate the rooms for the full Velaris feel.

Make sure the guest rooms are softly lit, with star-shaped fairy lights to mimic the celestial beauty of the Night Court.

3. Spa Treatments Worthy of the Fae

Plan a day of fae-inspired spa treatments that will leave the bride and her court feeling rejuvenated and glamorous.

• Starlight Body Wraps: A luxurious hydrating wrap using essential oils, crystals, and celestial energy to make everyone’s skin glow like the stars.
• Moonlit Massage: Picture an outdoor massage under the stars (or twinkle lights if inside), using lavender-infused oils for relaxation and peace.
• Starfall Facials: A moisturizing, anti-aging treatment using shimmering products to give the skin a radiant glow, reminiscent of Starfall itself.
• High Lord Bath Ritual: Create personalized baths for each guest using bath bombs or salts inspired by the High Lords—lavender for Rhysand, rose for Tamlin, eucalyptus for Cassian.

4. Activities: Magical Wellness

For downtime, blend wellness activities with some ACOTAR-themed magic.

• Yoga Under the Stars: Organize an evening yoga session under fairy lights, combining deep breathing and stretching to relax, all while feeling like you’re in Velaris’ night sky.
• Tarot Readings: Invite a tarot card reader to give readings as if you’re seeking guidance from the Suriel, offering fun and personal insights for the bride and her friends.
• Henna Tattoos: Decorate each other with henna tattoos inspired by Feyre’s hand markings, adding a creative and personalized touch to the weekend.

5. Food & Drinks: Starfall Feast

No retreat is complete without food and drinks! Treat your court to a fae-inspired menu with light, refreshing spa cuisine that’s both delicious and beautiful.

• Moonstone Smoothies: Start the day with smoothies made with blueberries, bananas, and almond milk, topped with edible glitter for a celestial touch.
• Faerie Fruit Platters: Serve fruit platters filled with strawberries, blackberries, and pomegranate seeds, reminiscent of the feasts at Velaris.
• Starfall Cocktails: End the night with signature drinks like the Starfall Sparkle (vodka, champagne, elderflower liqueur, and glitter) or Feyre’s Elixir (gin, lavender, and honey).
• Elegant Tea Party: Channel the Inner Circle’s meetings and host an afternoon tea with herbal teas, delicate finger sandwiches, and pastries that could be found at the Night Court’s finest gatherings.

6. Decor: Transform Your Space into Velaris

The decor is everything when it comes to creating an ACOTAR-inspired spa experience. Opt for a minimal, luxurious, and celestial aesthetic.

• Fairy lights and lanterns: Use soft, dim lighting to give a starry effect across your spa area.
• Botanical elements: Decorate with dried flowers, hanging vines, and floral garlands that Feyre herself would appreciate.
• Silver & gold accents: Add metallics in your table decor, vases, and even your spa towels to give that regal Velaris touch.
• Fluffy throw blankets and velvet pillows: Encourage relaxation with comfortable, plush decor elements.

7. Personalized Favors

Before your magical weekend ends, send the bride and her guests home with favors fit for the Night Court:

• Custom robes with each guest’s name and their Court (Night, Day, Dawn, etc.) embroidered on the back.
• Moonstone necklaces or starry earrings as a reminder of their magical experience.
• Self-care kits featuring lavender oils, bath bombs, and starlight candles so they can continue the spa vibes at home.

Bonus: Starry Night Starfall Party

For the final night, throw a Starfall-themed evening, complete with twinkling lights and soft music. The guests can wear gowns or robes in shades of deep blues and purples, adding to the dream-like magic. Toast to the bride under the stars, and give her the Night Court send-off she deserves before her wedding day.

Your ACOTAR-inspired spa bachelorette retreat is the ultimate combination of luxury, magic, and fae-worthy pampering. By the end of the weekend, the bride will feel like the true High Lady she is. 💫
