Shindigs started as a living room dance party in March 2021, when the company's founder began teaching friends the Texas two-step — a dance with roots that trace back to Texas, where the founder's family is from, layered on top of a background in classical ballet, college dance training, and years of professional teaching. What began as a casual after-work hangout has since grown into Savannah's self-described traveling honky tonk, showing up monthly at spots like Over Yonder and Starland Yard and, more relevantly for a bachelorette crew, booking out entirely private sessions anywhere a group wants to gather.

‍

That's the version built specifically for bachelorette parties: the Boot Scootin' Bachelorette Party, an hour-long private session where the group starts with zero dance experience and leaves with an entire honky-tonk's worth of moves. The instructor opens every session the same way regardless of skill level — a beginner breakdown of the basics — before layering in country swing, line dancing, and Texas two-step until the room is moving as a unit. It's built for exactly the crowd bachelorette parties bring: some dancers, some non-dancers, and a bride who needs to be the center of attention for at least one hour of the weekend.

‍

The appeal isn't just the novelty of cowboy boots and a killer playlist, though there's plenty of that. It's that a dance lesson solves a problem most bachelorette activities don't: it gets a group of people who may not all know each other that well moving, laughing, and physically doing something together, instead of standing around a rooftop bar making small talk. One reviewer who caught Shindigs at Over Yonder put it simply — they were the life of the party. That's the same energy the private bachelorette sessions are designed to bottle, just pointed entirely at one bride and her crew instead of a bar full of strangers.

‍

Because Shindigs travels, the session slots into a Savannah weekend wherever it fits — a private event space downtown, someone's rental living room before the group heads out, or, since sand and boots are apparently not mutually exclusive, right on Tybee Island if the group would rather learn their two-step with the ocean as a backdrop. No dance floor, no problem; the whole format was built to pack up and move to wherever the party already is.

‍

Sessions run about an hour and start at $450 per party, which covers the group regardless of size or experience level — nobody gets left standing on the sidelines, and nobody needs boots they don't already own.
