How to have a fun bachelorette party at home
If the bride or her bridesmaid has a private house with a large recreation area and a swimming pool, then you can have a stylized celebration. For example, a party at Gatsby's. It is not necessary to organize an extravaganza like in a famous film, but it is worth taking a closer look at the outfits, hairstyles, dances, and gastronomic features. And try to implement it in a mini format. And, of course, champagne in the studio!
In a city apartment , you won’t be able to celebrate with such freedom, but there’s no need for boring get-togethers.
The following options are suitable here:
- Spa party : standalone or as part of a pajama party. Fragrant candles and sachets, edible peelings and fruit scrubs will create the desired ambiance. And you are guaranteed to be able to relax before an important event.
- Party with fortune telling games using cards, candles, coffee, and a mirror. They should be simple and with positive interpretations, so as not to darken the mood before the wedding. And at the same time, get a little creative with witchcraft potions: tea with herbs and balm or homemade cocktails - it’s up to you.
- Barbie Party . It's time to release your “little girl” and at the same time rehearse the bride price competitions for tomorrow. And also combine the theme of childhood with the princess style, which older girls love no less. Strong alcohol will not fit into the holiday format, but various cocktails will come in handy.
There are three big benefits to having a bachelorette party at home. Firstly, at home you can afford things that you usually cannot afford in a public place. Secondly, after the pre-wedding bustle, you can relax better in a familiar environment. Thirdly, it turns out much cheaper.
Bachelorette party “on wheels”: mobile fun
For lovers of original solutions who are ready to spend money on renting multi-person transport, there are many options for holding a so-called mobile bachelorette party.
Holiday in a limousine - for lovers of luxury
This idea will make anyone gasp with delight. In Moscow you can rent cars with a capacity of five, ten and even twenty people.
True, professionals warn: you should take care of transport in advance. So, for a wedding it is customary to order a car two to three weeks in advance, and for a bachelorette party - ten days before the holiday.
Vacation on a yacht - a short pre-wedding trip
This, of course, is not a vacation at sea or a real trip, but still quite an interesting experience that will certainly be remembered and will bring a lot of pleasant emotions and memories.
You can have a bachelorette party in a nautical or Hawaiian style, organize a photo shoot, or come up with original interpretations of classic rituals in the spirit of saying goodbye to an old family name.
Celebrating at the club: the best party
This is not an option for the shy.
Temperamental girls love karaoke bars, bowling, dancing a lot and even getting rowdy in a strip club. Organizers should take into account the bride’s musical preferences, look for a performance by a favorite band or DJ in advance, and book seats in advance (a VIP room, if funds allow).
A cool surprise for the hero of the occasion - a bright short veil - as an attribute and reminder of what reason everyone is celebrating today. With this “initiation of a wife” you can start the holiday. A great gift for the bride is a gift certificate for a photo shoot, which can be held the day before the wedding.
A bachelorette party in a club can tire the bride and guests before the big day, but there is no more symbolic place to say goodbye to a free life than a nightclub.
Features of the event
A nightclub is a great place for a positive celebration with loud music and dynamic dancing. Traditionally, the celebration is organized by close friends of the bride (or the future witness), but when holding a celebration in a nightclub, you can order the service of a host.
The celebration includes a rich program, so it is optimal to hold the event not on the eve of the wedding, but 2-3 days before the celebration itself .
This way, the bride and her friends will have time to have fun, dance, and then relax after the holiday. Additionally: for more details about the process of preparing and holding a bachelorette party, read the article “Instructions: how to host a bachelorette party.”
What is important to consider:
- the interior of the club and the style of the establishment (the design of the club is important for two reasons - so that you enjoy being there and receive aesthetic pleasure, the second is to take beautiful photos with your friends);
- musical repertoire (here it is important to take into account the musical tastes of the bride and her friends);
- Possibility of renting a separate room or table;
- availability of presenter ;
- quality of service (it’s better to study reviews first);
- possibility of organizing a banquet, entertainment program, ordering a private dance.
Transfer
For a transfer, you can rent a limousine for a large group , a vintage car for several people, or come in your own car. On the way back from the club, a taxi is usually ordered .
Booking a room or table
When planning a bachelorette party, be sure to take into account the noise level and club attendance. This can significantly interfere with communication and make it difficult to conduct some competitions. If possible, for a comfortable celebration it is better to book a separate room for a large company or a table in the chill-out area, where you can sit quietly and relax, without being distracted by the noise and bustle.
Important: many nightlife establishments require you to pay a “deposit” - a so-called fixed amount, which usually includes the cost of food, drinks, and hookah. The cost of such a service must be clarified in advance with the administrator of the establishment.
Entertainment
To make the holiday a memorable event, draw up a script in advance . Find out if an entertainment or show program is provided. You can clarify this directly with the club administration.
A top list of the bride’s favorite songs can be compiled in advance for the bachelorette party. The program itself may include fun games, competitions with incentive prizes, and gift exchange .
Advice! In most cases, on weekends, nightclubs have a host working and a ready-made show program. Most likely, the issue of entertainment for the evening will disappear by itself. Even if there is no show program, but there is a DJ, the loud music will make it difficult to hold any competitions at the table.
Documentation
To go to the club, be sure to take with you documents confirming your age . You may be asked to confirm that you are of legal age both when entering the club and when selling alcoholic beverages.
Dress code
The main restrictions imposed by clubs:
- sports and beach style is undesirable;
- Visitors’ clothing must be neat and clean;
- shoes should be in harmony with the image - when going to a club, it is better to give preference to shoes than sneakers or sneakers.
For a bachelorette party, the ideal option would be bright cocktail or evening dresses and high heels . In addition, the clothes should be comfortable and stylish, and not restrict movement during dance (often the bride and her bridesmaids choose the same style and color scheme of outfits in order to have a beautiful photo shoot).
Reviews and recommendations
You can get feedback about this or that establishment from your friends or your wedding coordinator, if the wedding is organized by a wedding agency (as a rule, they have experience working with wedding hosts, including for bachelorette parties).
Bachelorette party in a cafe: inexpensive and tasteful
The option is widespread, tested by life and allows you to hold both a noisy themed party and friendly girls’ “final get-togethers”.
For comfort, it is better to rent a small room in a cafe with live music .
If the bride has good musical taste, then you can go to a jazz cafe. You can add some zest to such a party by dressing up in the fashion of the 30s and 40s or in black and white chic style. For symbolic accessories, choose a masquerade veil, headbands with bunny ears.
The idea of a “hipsters” party for a cafe is also suitable: bright dresses, hairstyles with bouffant hairstyles will create a rainbow mood.
How to celebrate a bachelorette party in a sauna: both treatment and entertainment
This fashionable way to spend a bachelorette party also has a traditional background: in Rus', the bride went to the bathhouse with her friends the evening before the wedding.
Modern saunas will provide both SPA services and a professional massage therapist. Relaxation for soul and body will improve the bride’s well-being after the long labor of preparing for the wedding.
It would be nice to include ritual actions in the scenario of this bachelorette party. For example, the bridesmaids can braid the bride’s hair by candlelight, just like in the old days. And you can sit at the table in a special room: drink tea with honey and remember your past bachelor adventures.
Limousine/party bus
For a bachelorette party, you can order a large limousine and spend several hours in it, driving around the city at night. Romantic and fun, isn't it?!
- “+”: the bride and her bridesmaids will be able to enjoy delicious treats and drinks and chat with each other, feeling like real stars.
- “–”: you will have to prepare treats and drinks; The limousine can't accommodate too many people.
Advice: if you have a lot of girlfriends, but you don’t want to give up the idea of having a fun bachelorette party on wheels, pay attention to the party-bus (party bus) - a bus converted inside into a mini-bar with a disco.
Shopping center: bachelor shopping
A very original idea that will allow you to pamper the bride and at the same time solve the problem of gifts . You need to choose a shopping center in advance and buy gift cards for stores with ladies’ items: lingerie, cosmetics, handmade soap, etc. After shopping, you can sit in a cafe or restaurant.
You can also go to the cinema (every modern shopping center now has one).
In addition, some shopping centers have ice skating rinks. Ice skating will add some excitement to your relaxing holiday .
Don’t forget that you need to plan your entertainment program before shopping, otherwise there may be a problem where to put your purchases.
A great option is to spend a bachelorette party in a water park
Another option is to unleash your “inner child”, have fun on the slides, swim in the pools and get a lot of positive impressions. And then you can relax there, in the sauna, or use the local spa. The logical conclusion is to sit for a while on the road to married life in a cozy restaurant or cafe.
This option is not only suitable for summer. Some cities already have indoor water parks that operate year-round.
Celebrating in nature: interesting ideas
A bachelorette party in the lap of nature is not only a fire, barbecue and barbecue. On this occasion, it is appropriate to have a picnic in the following ways:
- A bachelorette party with the scope of bohemian chic in boho style . These are light loose dresses, wreaths, bright beads and bracelets. The decoration of the area will be complemented by huts made of branches and carpets, tablecloths made of natural fabrics with floral patterns. And a lot of fresh flowers and fruits.
- Glamorous vintage . The style of the 50s is welcomed in outfits and hairstyles, and the relaxation area can be decorated with furniture in the same spirit - a small sofa, small sofas, armchairs, a table with carved legs. You can hang lanterns on trees. In such an environment it’s nice to chat and take part in fun competitions.
Whatever picnic you are planning, stock up on warm blankets so as not to catch a cold on the eve of the wedding and not darken the memories. In addition, mosquito repellent .
Ideas for those who prefer nature to establishments
Not everyone will like relaxing within four walls. I knew girls who were ready to exchange a thousand evenings in restaurants and clubs for an ordinary walk in the park. Many of them found sitting in a cafe tiresome, in a club noisy, and in a bar unbearably boring. I have no doubt that there are many such girls, and therefore I have reserved a number of alternative solutions especially for them, involving outdoor recreation.
City park is the best place for a hen party picnic
Instead of music, you will find the rustling of leaves and the singing of birds, instead of waiters and cooks - the participants of the celebration themselves, instead of expensive costumes and colorful decorations - simple outfits and modest green landscapes.
Not everyone will find such a holiday interesting and bright, but true connoisseurs will certainly appreciate this option, especially since Moscow parks have always been distinguished by their special charm.
Beach Fun - Hawaiian Party
It’s a rare girl who doesn’t want to relax on the river coast, have a photo shoot in a swimsuit and bask on the hot sand. Of course, such a vacation is not only in winter, but even in spring and autumn it can turn out to be too cool. However, in the hot summer, the prospect of spending the whole day by the water in the company of your best friends will delight everyone who knows a little about relaxation.
Water park or bachelorette party by the pool
In Moscow there are much fewer water parks than the same cafes or parks. The more difficult it is to get there, but the more interesting it is, in the end, to end up there. The only thing more fun than going on a water slide is going on a water slide with your best friends.
An original idea - a holiday over the city panorama
Colorful views, adrenaline, gusts of wind and an atmosphere of slight rebellion... have you already guessed what we're talking about? Of course, about a bachelorette party on the roof!
In the city of high-rises and multi-storey buildings, choosing a suitable place is not at all difficult, and with the help of professionals you can organize a truly cool bachelorette party with games, competitions, quests, jokes and a set of unforgettable unique features unique to each holiday.
Traveling in a limousine: you can't catch us
All girls love limousines - the personification of a beautiful life.
As well as bright make-up, cocktail dresses and high heels. Where you go is up to you to decide. You can just drive around the city, or you can go to places with which the bride has warm memories. The optimal rental time is 4-5 hours, otherwise unusual gatherings will become tiresome.
The price range for renting a limousine starts from 800 rubles/hour.
It is better to decorate the salon in advance: ribbons, fresh flowers, and balloons are used. It’s good if one girlfriend is responsible for the music, and another for the presence of alcohol.
Disadvantage of a limousine: a limited number of seats, this must be taken into account in order to avoid an awkward situation.
Beach party
You can have a bachelorette party on the seashore, lake or river. The “water” theme suggests itself. Here are a couple of interesting ideas:
- Popular sea/pirate party. The design uses a blue-blue color scheme, diluted with white and red, and appropriate costumes are used (sailor suits, just vests with jeans, cocked hats or caps, etc.). Cuisine - seafood and fish, dessert - cookies and candies in the form of shells, starfish, drinks - rum, grog. And it’s better for girls to have light cocktails based on them or the famous “Blue Lagoon” and “Sea Breeze”.
- Hawaiian party. Exotic in everything - the external surroundings, the menu. And a minimum of clothing - swimsuits, bright fluffy miniskirts, flower lei beads. If bachelors attend the holiday, their dress code is Hawaiian shirts with shorts or a surfer uniform. To benefit the cause, this beach bachelorette party can be turned into a master class in dancing to the rhythms of hula.
Extreme bachelorette party
This type of bachelorette party is suitable for especially brave girls. For them, extreme sports are, first of all, freedom and beauty, and only then risk. So why not have a group pre-wedding adventure - flying or shooting? Moreover, the industry of these services offers a diverse range:
- Flight in a wind tunnel. The “artificial” wind in the air flow will provide an easy 2-minute soaring. The pleasure will cost an average of 2,500 rubles. per person.
- Skydive : solo or in tandem with an instructor. Everyone doesn’t have to jump; the most cautious ones can admire and root for their friend from the sidelines. The cost depends on the location of the airfield and starts from 2,700 rubles.
- Paintball bachelorette parties are not uncommon today. Many girls like the craft of Artemis and Diana. Many paintball clubs are happy to organize bachelorette parties. In the regions, the price ranges from 850-1050 rubles per person; in Moscow, a game day costs up to 1500 and more.
The sensations from an extreme bachelorette party will always be fresh. And so that the bride does not fall off her feet on her wedding day, she should leave time to recuperate.
Competitions and games
Ideas for all kinds of entertainment will help you make your bachelorette party unusual and interesting. Come up with competitions, prepare props, prizes, and the hero of the occasion will certainly appreciate your efforts. Here are some ideas.
Pantomime
A fun wedding-themed competition “Pantomime” will entertain the guests of the bachelorette party. The girlfriends are divided into two teams, the leader hands them a bag - from it, each girl has to get a photo of something that needs to be shown to her team without the help of words. Commonly used words are “ring”, “guest fight”, “wedding cake”, “bride’s gloves”.
Question answer
A question and answer game for a bachelorette party will bring best friends even closer together. The girls sit close to each other and pass a burning match around in a circle. On whom it goes out, he must honestly answer any question asked.
Kissing skills
The organizer prints out the man’s poster on a large sheet of paper. The girls have to kiss him blindfolded. Whoever is closest to the lips wins.
To the touch
A good housewife must understand the culinary arts. To test the abilities of your future spouse, use the idea of holding a competition for the bachelorette party “To the touch.” Place fruits, vegetables, sweets, chocolates, and eggs in front of the bride. She will need to determine what lies in front of her, trusting her senses.
Magic balls
Helium-filled balloons and a black marker are given to the hero of the occasion - she needs to write on them what she wants to get rid of and what she wants to keep for a future life. After this, she needs to release the strings of the first balls. This idea will help relieve pre-wedding stress.
Training
A funny competition for a bachelorette party in a club: the bridesmaids and the bride must remove the garters (a detail of the bride's wedding dress) from their legs without using their hands. Whichever girl gets rid of her faster will win.
