Bachelorette Party Booking Safety Tips

Protect your squad from scams – verify before you buy!

Red Flags to Watch For
  • No physical address listed – If you can't find a real address for the business, be wary. The popular tourist side of downtown Charleston is not zoned adult shows at lounges, bars, hookah bars or resturants. Something is up, there is no special license for this, it is a trick or scam.
  • Full payment required upfront – Legitimate businesses typically don't demand 100% payment before services. Often have no refund clauses
  • Ticket scams – Be cautious of third-party sites selling tickets to events at inflated prices or for events that don't exist
  • Bar crawl scams – Some "organized crawls" charge premium prices for things you could do yourself for free
  • Too-good-to-be-true deals – If the price seems impossibly low, investigate further
How to Verify Before Booking
  • Call the venue directly – If booking an event or activity, call the hosting location to confirm it's real instead of trusting the website alone
  • Check reviews on multiple platforms – Look for Google, Yelp, and Facebook reviews from real customers
  • Search for the business name + "scam" – A quick search can reveal if others have been burned
  • Use credit cards – Easier to dispute charges if something goes wrong
  • Trust your gut – If communication feels off or pushy, find another option
