A bachelorette party should be memorable and fun, a chance for the girls to let loose one last time before the bride-to-be gets hitched. Choosing the right games can make all the difference between a memorable evening out and a forgettable one.

When the venue has been chosen, the entertainment booked and the catering confirmed, it is time to look at games. These games can be used as fillers in the “downtimes” between what you have already arranged. There is nothing worse for a party than a flat spot, so we have put together a list of ideas to help you out.

Trivia games are always fun. Although this will require some research to set up the questions, it is worth it. Bride and Groom Trivia are the most obvious topics. To set up this game, ask the bride some really obscure questions about herself and her husband-to-be, and get the guests to guess at the answers. The size of the group can make a difference to the type of trivia you are quizzing on, with more intimate and intriguing questions more suitable for a small group.
As a variation on the trivia game, you can extend the questions to everyone in the group by asking them questions privately. Read off the questions and then gather the answers from everybody without revealing who said what.

I Never... is another popular favourite. The rules are simple: each contestant admits something they have never done. Anyone who has done that action, has to have a drink. The key to the game is creativity and it is important to encourage the girls to think of the most bizarre things they have never done. It is also a great way for the bridesmaids to get to know each other a little (or a lot) better.

If an adult party is right up your alley, try dividing your guests into groups and having them hunt for fun party (adult) toys. You can be very creative in where you hide things, and watch your guests' consternation as they search and search. Just make sure you keep a list for yourself so that a future houseguest doesn't end up finding a plastic phallus in his or her pillowcase. You can let your guests keep what they find as party gifts.

It is important to give out prizes for these games. It gives the games a purpose as well as making it more interesting for the guests. The prizes can be as entertaining as the games themselves including adult themed prizes such as key chains with pictures of nude men, liquid-filled pens that disrobe the little man inside when turned upside down or any number of inexpensive phallic-shaped prizes.
 
Whatever games you choose, do not panic if the bomb out, just move on to the next one. The whole point of the evening is for the bride to have some fun with her bridesmaids and friends.

A bachelorette party usually takes place about a month before the wedding, this is traditionally done to make sure there are no accidents that can get in the way of the big day (spraining an ankle, etc.) It is also a great opportunity for the bridesmaids to get to know one another ahead of the wedding day and share a bond.

Planning the bachelorette party is essential in ensuring a successful party that will be an important memory of the wedding for the bride. Here are some planning tips to make sure the day goes off without a hitch.

4 months before the party

Before you start planning themes and invitations, have the Bachelorette give you a list of all the girls she wants to have go to the party and their contact details.
Since there are usually a few of the girls who will want to be part of the planning process, bring them in to help with the planning.  It is important to check with a few of the Bride-to-be’s close friends on what general things they would like to do so the party can be well received by the majority.

Once the guest list and planners have been settled, it is time to work out a date that works for most if not all of the invited guests. You do not want to set a date that does not work for a lot of the girls as a high attendance is crucial to keep your bride happy.

3 months before the party

It is time to let the girls know about the bachelorette party. Send out an email including where the party will be, how much the basic cost will be, what girls will need, travel arrangements if necessary, and any other important information.

Follow up and stay on track of those that do not respond. It is important to get the numbers confirmed as soon as possible to make sure your bookings for venues etc. can accommodate everybody.

2 months before the party

If you are going to hire bachelorette party entertainment, now is the time to do so. You want to make sure you leave have enough time to plan and get some great deals. If you have not confirmed a venue or transportation, now is the time to finalise and confirm all your bookings.

1 month before the party

This is the time to make sure you have the items/gifts for your party. It is also time to confirm any hotel or travel bookings you may have made, and food and drinks have been confirmed.  Sometimes things pop up that can interfere with plans for those that have already RSVP’d, now is the time to make plan B arrangements to accommodate these hiccups.

Around 2 weeks before the party

Check in with all the girls again to make sure everything is set and to arouse the spirit and excitement for the party. This is also the time to make sure you have everything you need to pamper and spoil your bride-to-be to make this a memorable day for her.

Planning a bachelorette party should not be a daunting experience. With the correct planning and choice of games, it can be quite simple to arrange a memorable event that will remain with the bride-to-be for years to come.

It is always important to bear in mind what your bachelorette prefers. This is her day after all and you want to be able to pamper her and spoil her with the things she enjoys. This is also a chance for her to spend some time with her friends and a chance for her friends to get to know each other better before the big day.

There is a wide choice of ideas you can play with depending on the bachelorettes preferences. For the more adventurous or the adrenaline seeking bachelorette, consider a day out abseiling or a parachute weekend.
For those not afraid to get a little dirty, camping is a great way to get the girls together to enjoy the outdoors and enjoy a little team building in nature.
Bear in mind though, that some of the friends of the bride may not be as adventurous, and check beforehand if there would be any objections.

For the bachelorette who prefers the sillier side of things consider an Ugly dress party. Find a big batch of heinous dresses (wedding dresses prefereably) either online or from a fancy dress store and get the bride and her bridesmaids together to venture out for the evening in the dresses.
An old school slumber party, complete with makeovers, take out and chick flicks is another option for a silly evening.
If your bride is a little braver and enjoys the silly things, try a scavenger hunt for wedding themed items and throw in some dares along the way as you hop from venue to venue. Have the bride dressed up to be noticed and get everybody involved in celebrating the party with the bride, at each of the clubs or bars that you stop at. Create and bring a list of missions for the bride to fulfill throughout the evening.

Wilder options for bachelorette parties include belly dancing or a pole dancing classes. These classes bring people together in a fun way where everyone looks silly together. Other popular wild choices are Boudoir photo shoots for all the girls to get some sexy photos done or Sex toy parties. Along the lines of a Tupperware party, although these particular parties are way more fun than viewing Tupperware.

There is a lot of competition in the bachelorette party industry, which means there are a lot of companies offering special deals, and complete planning, making it easier and simpler to arrange a bachelorette party. A bit of research to find out which venues and which events companies offer the best packages to suit your bride, and planning in advance, is crucial to get all the details sorted out before the time to help you to make this one of the most memorable days for her.

Bachelorette party games are the key to having a great bachelorette party and make it a party to remember. Adding games to your evening out Club Hopping, or to a weekend away, creates an air of excitement that makes the occasion more memorable and adds to the energy and fun.

There are a number of traditional games that are played at bachelorette parties, as well as some unique alternatives to choose from to make sure your bride-to-be has a bachelorette party she will not soon forget. The games also work as a great icebreaker if the girls at the party do not know each other so well, and go a long way to making friends.

Pin the Macho on the Man is one of the most common games played at bachelorette parties, and is just like the classic pin the tail on the donkey but involves placing the male anatomy blindfolded to see how accurately the girls can be. This is a great decoration and game to play with the girls at a home or party on the town.

Dare games such as squirt guns are great games for bachelorette parties like Club hopping. Choose specific characteristics for men and the girls need to squirt any contenders they find with those characteristics. Make sure your venue is appropriate for these kind of games to ensure you don’t create trouble with other patrons.

Scavenger hunts are a great bachelorette party game, irrespective if the party is at home, in a club or out of town. Have the girls join up to search for specific items that are representative of the bachelorette’s personality, are wedding themed or naughty. These items can be hidden for the girls to find or can be photographed with disposable cameras.

For bachelorette party games to be a success, it is important to remember to follow the bride-to-be's wishes. If the bride is a conservative person, make sure to choose games that are not too embarrassing or offensive. It is her night after all and you want her to have a great memorable day. Make sure you mix the evening with some casual conversation and socializing so it is not too structured. Get input from all the girls on fun bachelorette party games they would like to have. This way you have others participate in the excitement of planning the party and are less likely to have too many of the girls who do not want to participate.
Make sure the games suit the venue. You don't want to have a car scavenger hunt if you don't have bachelorette party limos or sober drivers picked out and you don’t want to have games that will get you into trouble at the venue you have hired.

Finally, don’t fret if the games don’t go well – just move on to the next one! Everyone is there to have a great time with each other.

It can be stressful it is to organise the hen party or bachelorette party for your friend, but there are a few tried and tested preparations and suggestions to on top of everything else you have to do to keep the girls giggling and ensure your bride has a wonderful evening she will remember for a long time.
The most important detail you need to remember is the bride-to-be’s preferences and tastes. This is, after all, her night, and needs to be one that will be fun and entertaining for her from start to finish.

Night games are a great way to bring all the guests together and let them get to know each other better. They are also a good way to keep the party spirit going. There is an endless number of games to keep everyone entertained such as Guess the Gift, where the bride has to guess who her gifts are from, Bride and Groom Trivia, where the guests have to guess the correct answers to obscure questions about the bride and groom.

Make sure you take care of the little details to make the evening entertaining such as letting all the ladies choose a silly or saucy name at the beginning of the evening. For the duration of the party, everybody should be referred to by their new name. Anyone who forgets must carry out a forfeit or drink a shooter. These kinds of details are a great way to keep everyone in the spirit.

Pin the privates on the hunk – the adult version of Pin the tail on the donkey – involves pinning the private parts onto a poster of the hunk of your choice. The aim is to see which of the guests has the most accurate aim.

Everything will seem a lot funnier if you are dressed up or accessorized e.g. with flashing tiaras, sashes, badges. Yes, you will look ridiculous, but it's the last night of freedom after all, so let your hair down! Make sure the bride-to-be stands out in a crowd with the wildest outfit you can convince her to wear.

Try to set the whole evening to a theme if possible, with everyone dressing up to match the theme, particularly the bachelorette. There are a number of themes to choose from including some popular ones such as Belly Dancers, Famous People / Movie Characters, Girls of the Playboy Mansion, Horny Devils and more.

If you have been entrusted with the planning of the bachelorette party, don’t be shy to ask for input from the bridesmaids or the bride herself. Often there will be a number of the ladies who will have some wonderful ideas and will be eager to be involved. Plan ahead, and get confirmations early from the guests as well as the venues and entertainment – this will make it easier for you to focus on the little details that make the party more memorable for everyone.

Bachelorette parties do not generally have the same connotation as bachelor parties, and people assume they are more controlled and organised. However, with bad planning and a lack of preparedness, a bachelorette party has every chance of getting out of hand.
No matter what type of bachelor party you are planning, there are a few basic dos and don’ts you should follow to make this important celebration all it should be and more.

When planning a bachelorette party take into account the bride-to-be’s wishes. It is her day after all and her preferences and tastes are what matters. Take into account also, who is attending. In many cases, some of the people are from out of town, while others are work colleagues and may never have met. Throwing a group of people together can create some friction and drama if not managed correctly.

Plan to have cocktails before the party to introduce the guests to each other and to loosen things up. A part of the purpose of the bachelorette party is for the friends to get to know each other and form a bond before the wedding day, and it is important that they can have a chance to socialise and get to meet properly before the party gets too wild.

Plan to use organised transportation for the party. This takes the responsibility off everyone to have to drive, and can also mean the party doesn’t pause between venues. This also means that all the guests stay together, particularly if you are club hopping, and will help to include those who are a little shy into the fray.

Don’t bring out the booze too early. This may seem logical, but is one of the common causes of a disaster and can cause a lot of issues for the rest of the group. Although everyone is in a festive mood, overdoing the shots can change the mood quickly and spoil it for the bride to be.

Don’t move around randomly from venue to venue. Plan an itinerary and try to stick to it to keep the party guests together and interested. Moving around too much also prevents the bachelorette from having some time with her friends and can begin to feel too much like work.

Don’t forget about the money. Try to plan something that will work with everyone’s budget, and collect any funds from them up front. Look for group rates for meals, entertainment, spa getaways and so on. Many establishments offer such discounts for parties if booked in advance.

Don’t plan the party for the day before the wedding. Accidents happen, and your bride-to-be does not want to be making her way down the aisle on crutches or with a hangover. Although your schedule may be tight because of an out of town guest the bride insists must be there, try to schedule it for as long before the wedding as possible. Two weeks is the least amount of time before the wedding that you should schedule the bachelorette party.

Try to plan a party you are sure the bride, as well as most of the guests, will enjoy. A bachelorette party is an occasion that every bride-to-be wants to be memorable.

Destination bachelorette parties are becoming increasingly popular. Planning a bachelorette party is longer limited to a single night out, and many maids of honour are choosing a weekend getaway for their parties to allow the girls to bond and create lasting memories for the bride-to-be. If planning a destination bachelorette party it is important to remember that the destination is as important as the theme and the games in ensuring the party is a success.
The destination, whether extravagant kind or something small and intimate, will play a large part in the overall success of your party.

It is crucial that the bachelorette’s tastes and preferences are taken into consideration when choosing your destination. A conservative bride will not be comfortable in a loud and raucous venue, while a party-animal will be bored and uninterested in a formal venue. Picking a venue that mirrors the bride’s personality will also make the bachelorette party more personalised allowing the activities planned for the weekend to fit in with the theme and the bride-to-be.

There is a wide choice of destinations to suit each budget. From spa getaways to wild weekends, you will find a number of venues offering special deals for early bookings and out of season bookings. It is important to find out beforehand if any of the girls attending the bachelorette party have special needs such as allergies or handicaps, to make sure everyone can partake in the activities arranged.

Consider working the theme of the bachelorette party around your destination with boozy picnic on the beach at a tropical resort, or an old school sleep over at a more intimate venue. For city slickers, a wild night out on the town can be just the thing to accompany the city based destination – taking full advantage of the surrounding attractions.

If you are throwing a weekend long destination bachelorette party, it will be important for you to arrange activities throughout the weekend. Allow some time for relaxing and socialising in between the pre-arranged activities such as themed garden parties and picnics during the day, to formal dinners or club-hopping after an early evening cocktail party.
For a relaxed bachelorette getaway, spa days are the ideal solution. A perfect opportunity for the bride to be pampered before her wedding instead of partying it up, spa days offer a quiet destination for bachelorettes who are not keen on big parties. Many spa’s will offer discounted packages for bridal parties, particularly when booked in advance and can be an inexpensive solution to a destination party.
 
Bachelorette parties are a chance for the bride-to-be to enjoy the company of her closest friends and create lasting memories, as well as a chance for the friends to get to know each other better and bond before the big day. Destination bachelorette parties give everyone a chance to spend some time together and getting to know each other while enjoying a weekend away with the bride.

Finding creative bachelorette ideas for parties is often like finding a needle in a haystack. You want to create a fun night they'll never forget, and that's what they're expecting. You don't want to do something that's been done a million times, and you don’t want the night to turn into a disaster because of bad planning or something going wrong. It is difficult to be prepared for everything, but having the basic essentials on hand can make all the difference.

When the party's over, the energy and excitement of the night will be reduced to a few fuzzy memories. So don't let a single minute of the evening's craziness go undocumented. Bring at least two cameras, but preferably one for each guest, so that no explicit scenes get censored. The maid of honor should be in charge of retrieving the cameras at the end of the night.

Make sure all the venues and entertainment are confirmed prior to the party as well as the designated driver or transport for the evening. You don’t want to be left stranded at any of the venues or before even setting out and you don’t want to arrive at a destination to find they have lost your booking. Have a number for a taxi service on hand in the event that something goes wrong with the transport, to make sure that it does not spoil the evening or delay the next stop in the party.

Make sure your cell phone is fully charged. Should anything go wrong during the course of the evening, you want to be able to call for help, and not discover that your cell phone is flat and no one brought theirs. If possible, arrange with one or two of the other girls attending the bachelorette party to bring their fully charged cell phones too as a back up.

Extra cash is essential. Although you may have arranged for everyone to pay their way, or have all the girls paying up front, there is always a chance of an extra expense either not quoted for or over and above what you have pre-arranged. To prevent any embarrassment or spoil the evening with arguments over money, the extra cash can cover the costs and the party can move on.

Have a list of the bars or clubs you will be visiting with their addresses and phone numbers. This is particularly important if you have pre-booked or reserved a table, especially if entertainment has been specially arranged for the bachelorette party. Should you be running late, or need to make any changes, you can contact the necessary parties before hand to make sure your party runs smoothly.

The bachelorette party is almost as important for the bride-to-be as the wedding day itself. This is a chance to spend time with her best friends before the wedding day and a chance to be pampered and spoilt while having fun. Proper planning will ensure that the evening goes off without a hitch and everyone, including you, can enjoy a wonderful evening and take home some great memories.

Although a bachelorette party is as important for the bride-to-be as her wedding day, it is also an opportunity for the girls attending the party to get to know one another and to bond. Depending on the bachelorette’s tastes, you may not one to follow the traditional Girls' Night Out bachelorette party, and rather plan something a little different.

A scavenger hunt can be a unique way to spend a Friday or Saturday night, you just have to make sure to put some interesting and sexy items on the list. Consider having everyone in your party look for things like a particular shade of lipstick, a sign with the word "groom" on it, or something related to weddings. Give everyone disposable digital cameras so that party members can take photos of the items as they find them. You can make the items you're all searching for very personal to the bride's personality and have the girls pair off or hunt in groups to add to the fun. This idea does require some work on the part of the maid of honor and the bridesmaids in creating a good scavenger hunt list.

Pole-Dancing Classes are becoming a popular fun alternative to the traditional bachelorette party. There are many local dance studios and schools specifically set up for teaching pole-dancing techniques that will organize everything for you. You will only need to give them a headcount of how many girls will be in your party. These parties are great for creating bonds between the girls as it breaks down barriers as everyone is a little out of their comfort zones.

If you are looking to splurge and make it a really memorable occasion, consider a weekend out of town. This is a perfect idea if you have a bride who likes to travel. By taking an entire weekend to get away, your bachelorette will have some great time to relax before the wedding with her best friends as well as give everyone a chance to get to know each other better.
You can make the trip as expensive or inexpensive as you like, whether you want to fly cross-country or maybe just drive out of town for the weekend. Either way, you'll have a lot of fun, and your bachelorette will appreciate all you've done for her.

A bachelorette party does not have same connotations as a bachelor party, is usually not seen as last nights of liberty but instead a night to bond with the girls. Regardless of the activity, the common theme is generally to 'embarrass' the bachelorette in a light-hearted and cool way while still managing to spoil and pamper her to make her feel special and create a bond between the girls before the big day. Whatever option or theme you choose, the basic rule is to make sure everyone has a good time and takes home some special memories of the party, especially the bachelorette.
