Raise the Bar for Your Bachelorette Party by Making These 11 Fun Changes

Are you planning a bachelorette party for your squad? Organizing this big night out can add to the stress of your wedding preparations, but don't let it stop you from popping the champagne and having a good time with your closest friends.

Organize a party that everyone will enjoy and look forward to participating in. Celebrate in style and elevate your bachelorette party with these 11 fun ideas.

 

1. Hire a Photographer

Your last days of freedom make for fun memories you'll enjoy remembering through photographs. Make sure you have a keepsake for such a special day. A professional photographer can capture the night out with your girls while you and your squad focus on enjoying the party. Share the joyful moments later on with your kids and loved ones.

 

2. Throw a Theme Party

What makes the bachelorette party more fun? It’s a theme! It’s a must for a fantastic celebration as it guides the decorations, location and activities. Some popular choices are camping adventure, disco fever, Wild West and bar cocktail crawl, where you hop between pubs or clubs around the city. Decide what resonates with you the most. If you can't choose, ask the girls for their input.

 

3. Include Some Fun Games

Games are essential elements of a joyful bachelorette party. Whether a challenging scavenger hunt or laid-back bingo, they make the occasion thrilling and memorable. Games make guests laugh, bring out their competitive spirit and energize the night. Other options are Drink If, The Groom Quiz, Adult Pictionary and Lingerie Shower Bingo. Playing a few games will encourage everyone to bond, laugh and make memories.

 

4. Host a Joint Bachelor and Bachelorette Party

Organize a joint party with your groom if you want your gathering to be unique. The list of activities you and your future husband can mutually enjoy and plan without stress is endless. Some examples include outdoor adventures, sporting events and drinking games. If you want fresh air, move the party to the yard for a cornhole or horseshoe tournament.

A joint event can save you money, and more guests mean more people to share in the fun. It also allows friends on both sides to socialize and get closer before the wedding.

 

5. Rent a Limo

Renting a limo adds a touch of glamour to the party and gives the bride a red carpet treatment. It's convenient transportation for a group if you need to hop from one bar to another or get to your hotel. Plus, you won't have to worry about the driver for the night since you'll have a chauffeur who'll take you around the city. Dress up, enjoy the night and create lasting memories with your closest friends riding in a luxurious car.

6. Decorate With Champagne Balloons

Your decorations must complement the whole vibe of the party. Fortunately, champagne bottle-shaped balloons fit any type of bachelorette party theme. Whether retro or modern, they upgrade your venue and invite everyone to celebrate. Their interesting shapes add a fun touch to your decorations. Friends can take photos with them in the backdrop. Don't miss this minor detail that will upgrade your party.

 

7. Wear Funky Wigs

Let everyone know where the party is by wearing colorful, cute wigs. They'll make your celebration stand out in many ways. Wear the same shade or let the girls pick colors that match their outfits and personality for the night. Do they want to be flirty? A long wig with lots of waves will boost their confidence. A short, spiky blond wig is the perfect accessory if they want to exude an edgy personality.

 

8. Give Personalized Tumblers

Do you want friends to remember your bachelorette party for a long time? Give them personalized, reusable tumblers with their names printed on them. They will recall your big night out whenever they use them. Plus, these gifts will encourage them to drink their water and do so in style.

 

9. Handwrite Your Invitations

Nothing beats the beauty of handwritten invitations. It may require more effort, but it's the best way to infuse a personal touch into your bachelorette party. They pull double duty as meaningful keepsakes. In the past, handcrafted invitations were only reserved for high-class people, but anyone can do it now. If you're less confident with your handwriting, hire a calligrapher to do it for you. Each stroke in your letters will showcase your unique style.

 

10. Hand Out Bachelorette Hangover Kits

These must-haves can help your friends get through the hangover the morning after dancing and drinking the night away. Fill small pouches with pain relievers, face masks, lip balm, mouthwash, eye masks and scrunchies. These kits can soothe headaches and make your girls look and feel fresh even when sleep-deprived.

 

11. Let the Groom Show up at the Party

The bachelorette party is all about the bride, but including the groom as a surprise guest can inject some fun into the all-women event. Break the tradition of no guys allowed and let your fiance show up briefly at the gathering. He can participate in one game or hang out with everyone toward the end of the party.
