Girls trip ideas › Night in

Girls night in weekends, pyjamas on, nowhere to be, nobody leaving early

When was the last time a night out actually beat your couch? Exactly. Grazing at the door, the good pyjamas on before dark and the whole crew on one couch, with somewhere to stay for all of you and nobody calling a ride home.

Why the girls keep picking a night in

The big night out has lost the vote.

Somewhere along the way, the group’s idea of a big night changed. Half of you are asleep by ten, and every invitation now comes with a sneaky ’can we do something low key?’. What everyone actually wants is the whole crew on one couch with snacks in reach, and nobody leaving early to beat the traffic.

When the girls scroll back through a trip, the photos everyone saves are never the ones at the venue. They’re the slightly blurry ones from the lounge room floor after midnight, with half a cheese board in the frame. The best conversation of the night starts on the floor and runs as late as it likes.

There’s a particular kind of friend you can do absolutely nothing with and still come home feeling like you’ve been somewhere. Nobody has to call a ride, watch the clock or be the first to leave. Some traditions only get better with age.

It looks modest on paper. It’s exactly right, because the best nights with these women have always been the ones where nothing much happens except each other.

What happens on a girls night in weekend

Shoes off at the door. Pyjamas on by dark.

A girls night in weekend with My Ultimate is your own apartment or a luxe stay, with grazing delivered and the night built around the couch, inside a whole girls weekend with somewhere to stay, food and drinks, plus a lunch out or a brunch the morning after.

  1. Two friends in robes and sunglasses toasting with white wine on a girls sleepover weekend

    Check in, claim a corner.

    Bags drop, the drinks go in the fridge and everybody claims her preferred corner of the sofa. Somebody puts a movie on with the very best intentions.

  2. Friends chatting in the kitchen over a spread of grazing, fruit and pastries

    Girl dinner arrives at the door.

    The grazing lands and the coffee table disappears under it. Nobody’s plating things up in the kitchen and missing the good bits.

  3. Friends in pyjamas dancing on the bed holding hands

    The great outfit vote.

    Getting ready tonight means getting comfortable: hair piled up, faces scrubbed clean, the good fluffy socks handed round and the big vote held between two pairs of trackies.

  4. Three friends hugging and laughing with glasses of wine on a girls night in

    The movie nobody watches.

    Twenty minutes in, nobody has any idea what’s happening because one story has completely taken over the room. Leave it playing. You’re clearly not here for the plot.

  5. Two friends cheek to cheek laughing in the living room

    Late, and lying down.

    The conversation goes where it only goes late and lying down, past the updates and into the things nobody says over a quick coffee. When somebody falls asleep mid story, the rest of you finish it without her.

  6. Four friends in pyjamas sipping coffee in the kitchen

    The morning debrief.

    Coffee at the kitchen bench in pyjamas, or brunch and mimosas in Melbourne and Sydney. Nobody said the debrief had to be brief.

What kind of girls group a night in suits

Couch people. All of you.

It works for the group that’s asleep by ten on a normal night, and for the friend whose ideal Saturday has a dress code. It’s pyjamas.

Friends in robes sipping bubbly in a round mirror selfie while getting ready

The ones who keep asking ’can we do something low key?’.

This is low key, done properly, with everyone under one roof.

The group that never finishes a conversation.

Everyone in the same room long enough to finish one. Finally.

Busy mums and busy everyone.

No early start, no ride home, no being the sensible one who leaves first.

Friends who live all over the place.

One night under one roof does more than ten rushed catch ups.

A birthday that doesn’t want a nightclub.

The birthday girl in her good pyjamas, surrounded by her favourite people.

The group that loves a surprise.

In Brisbane and on the Gold Coast, the organiser keeps the cookie box hidden all week for the big reveal.

Real girls trip reviews

In their own words, exactly as written.

Three women in pyjamas hugging and laughing in a hotel room

Somehow the weekend felt full and lazy at the same time.

I mean that as a massive compliment.

Everyone kept saying I'd nailed it.

Obviously I told them it was all me.

Sorry My Ultimate.

Booking a room, or a whole girls weekend

Same pyjamas, a very different weekend.

Plenty of groups pile into somebody’s house and have a lovely night. Then comes the bit around it: whose house, who’s cooking, who’s driving, and somebody leaving early to beat the traffic just as the good conversation starts.

A girls night in weekend with My Ultimate has the stay, the grazing and the morning after already lined up, so nobody hosts, nobody cooks and nobody leaves before the good bit.

Somewhere to stay, already in it.One living room for the grazing, the pyjamas and the morning coffee.
Nobody hosting.No clean up, no dishes, no one person’s house.

Is a night in a good idea for a birthday?

For the birthday girl who’d rather be in her good pyjamas than in a queue, it’s perfect. Everyone she loves, one couch, no closing time.
