The Bachelorette's tenth season -- which will air in its regular time slot of Monday nights from 8-10PM ET/PT beginning on May 26 -- will begin with Andi, a 27-year-old assistant district attorney from Atlanta, GA, moving into a Los Angeles mansion where she will be introduced to 25 eligible suitors for the season's initial cocktail party.
Many of Andi's bachelors will attempt to make memorable first impressions during their arrivals -- including Tasos, a romantic young musician who invites her to fasten a lock on a gate with him similar to the "Love Lock" bridge in Paris; Cody, a "hunky" personal trainer who shows off his strength by pushing his stalled limo up the driveway; and Brett, a hairstylist with an off-beat sense of humor who offers her the unusual gift of the floor lamp from his hotel room.
In addition, professional golfer Nick S. will drive up in a golf cart. Eric, a world traveler, will give Andi a pair of dolls that a little girl in the Andes Mountains gave him for his future girlfriend. Craig, a high energy bachelor, will uncork an overflowing bottle of champagne in the driveway. Bradley will sing opera to Andi, Marquel will treat the Bachelorette to a cookie tasting, and Josh M., a former professional baseball player, will whisk Andi away for some alone time.
The mood will then become quite serious when Andi intends to hand out her first impression rose and the guys become increasingly jealous and competitive. A prior-season The Bachelorette contestant will also return to vie for Andi's heart and it will come as a surprise to everyone.

During the cocktail party, J J, a quirky clothing designer, will bring Andi a one-of-a-kind pair of pants he had sewn just for her. Nick S., a professional golfer, will also offer Andi a putting lesson. Whether Andi chooses to keep or eliminate the mysterious "party crashing" former cast member will affect who will receive her first impression rose. Her choice will disappoint most of the bachelors, as she'll hand the special rose to a "sincere, humble, unassuming man," according to the network.
The premiere will conclude with Andi whittling her 25 bachelors down to 19 during the season's first Rose Ceremony.
