Bachelorette Idea Party

Welcome To Our Bachelorette Idea Party page.

If you are looking for a bachelorette party theme idea that is sure to go over well, check out the tried-and-true party ideas below.

See below for all the decorations, costumes, game, and party drink ideas, as well as printable invitations.

Planning a bachelorette party should center around the personality of the bachelorette. Is she fun and outgoing or is she more quiet and prefer not to be in the spotlight?

Also, with the traditional bachelorette party, would she be comfortable with the more risque, or would it be offensive?

These are all important questions which will determine the success of your bachelorette party.

You can choose activities centered at home, or out in the community. Community gathering places include the traditional restaurant and bars. Increasingly popular are creative outings such as spas, sporting events, camping, and amusement parks.

The bridal party typically pays for the bachelorette party. It is also acceptable for everyone attending the bachelorette party to chip in. Typically, the bachelorette party consists of the closest friends and family members, so it shouldn't be a problem sharing the costs.

Also be sure to arrange for a limo or hotel room if everyone will be drinking up for a lively celebration!

Activity Ideas

Bachelor and bachelorette parties are associated with strip clubs and limo rides. There are also many creative "PG-13" ideas to make it fun for all!

Bachelorette Free Party Games:

• Roast the bachelorette. Include all kinds of funny memories and embarassing videos or photos!
• Is the bachelorette known for any particular hobby or activity? How about an all-inclusive sport such as bowling or ice skating? It may have better participation than if the bachelorette is known for sky diving or extreme sports!
• Gambling on a winner? Choose a casino night for an easy to put together bachelorette party.
• Is a happy marriage in the cards? Use a fortune telling theme complete with palm readings and crystal balls.
• Pamper the bachelorette. You can pamper her with a day at the spa complete with manicures, pedicures, and massages. It can take place at the spa itself, or create a pajama party for in-home pampering.
• A western theme can be used to "wrangle" the bachelorette into marriage. Decorate with "wanted" posters of the bachelor or bachelorette. Give a lasso as a prop to the bachelorette as a metaphor for "roping" her man to the alter!
• Create a time capsule to be opened in five years. Include some of her cherished pre-marriage items and a questionnaire about what she thinks marriage will be like. For example, "Who (bachelor or bachelorette) will there be "more of to love (weight gain)" in five years?" Make a video of the party to include in her time capsule.
• Board games or card game championships
• Hold a couples party and play the Newlywed Game to see who's most in tune with each other.
• Murder mystery party with a honeymooning script. Purchase murder mystery scripts or use a local murder mystery company to host the event.
• Hold a scrapbook party to put together memorable events in the couple's lives.
• Take a day cruise on a local body of water.
• Hire a bellydancer or salsa dancer to give lessons and give the bachelorette a little spice for her honeymoon. Everyone will have a good laugh as they try out their new skills!
• Go out dancing at the bachelorette's favorite club.

A scavenger hunt is another great party activity. Scavenger hunts take guests into different locations, hunting for selected objects, people, or locations. It’s a lot of fun and gets all guests involved. Check out these scavenger hunt party plans for easy party planning.

Invitations/Printables

Depending on the theme you choose, invitations themes will vary greatly. Check out our printable invitations page for free printable invitations on the web.

Games & Activities

• Rather the pin the tail on the donkey, try pin the (favorite body part) on a life size poster of a hunk or heart-throb.
• Scavenger hunt. This will take the guests into public locations trying to find select people and objects. For example, a guests receives a card that she must find talk to the first bald guy she sees. It should be videotaped to add to the fun. Great for a bar or restaurant!

• What in the bag? Take a bag and put typical guy items such as a wallet, etc, or tools if he's a handy guy, etc. Each guest reaches her hand in the bag and must guess the item. The best guesser wins a prize.

• Wedding couple jeopardy. Test your knowledge about the couple's first date, where they got engaged, and other trivia.

• Toilet paper bridal gown. Divide into two or more groups and choose a "bride" from each group. Using only markers and toilet paper, each group must create a bridal gown that will make a "runaway groom."

• Marriage charades. Create words or phrases that are specific to marriage and have guests act them out. Examples include acting out sterotypical male behavior such as clicking the tv remote or never asking for directions.

For the the slightly naughtier bachelorette, check out these naughty bachelorette party games.

Music

Play the bachelorette's favorite tunes or from her era (70s, 80's, 90's, etc.)

Food & Drink

Easy to eat finger foods go over well, since food isn't the primary focus of the party.
