The wedding planning is complete. It's been months of details, meetings and decisions all leading up to the big day. Before you turn in your wedding planner tools, there's one more event to add -- the bachelorette party. Whether you are looking to relax or to run wild, here's a few
bachelorette party planning ideas to get the creative juices going for this most important celebration.
While bachelor parties have been traditional pre-wedding events for years, bachelorette parties are a fairly recent event. While the standard bachelor party is looked as “the last night of freedom”, women tend to view a bachelorette party as a time of bonding with her friends before taking on her new role as wife.
The bachelorette party is as unique as the bride and has far less traditional activities than the bachelor party. Here are a few options to look at when planning a bachelorette party.
A Night on the Town
One tried and true
bachelorette party favorite is a night out a favorite night club. Rent a limo for the evening, have a nice dinner out and then head to the local hotspot or the bride’s favorite night club.
To add a special bachelorette party touch to the evening, accessorize the bride so she will draw attention everywhere she goes. For example, have the bride wear a tiara or a veil, the bigger and tackier the better. If the traditional veil is a little to boring for the bride, a more risqué option would be to handcuff her to a blow up doll for the evening.
Depending on the group, spend the night clubbing and crawl home in the wee hours of the morning, or for a tamer crowd, enjoy a night club or two and then wrap the evening up with coffee and dessert on the way home.
Ladies Going Wild
For the woman who wants to celebrate her last night of freedom in a more traditional bachelor party manner, there are exotic dancers who “strip” at private parties, as well as adult night clubs to fill this void. If hiring an exotic dancer be clear about exactly how “exotic” you’d like him to be and give the agency the “type” you are looking for. Do you want a business man to strip down to briefs or a fire fighter stripping down to the tiniest thong you’ve every seen in your entire life?
Dance Lessons
Pole dancing and exotic dance are all the rage. Have a private group lesson with a professional dancer either in their studio or in your home. Follow up your lesson with snacks and drinks to replace all those calories you burnt off during class.
Spa Day
Spa day is a perfect
bachelorette party activity and a much deserve retreat. Enjoy a massage, pedicure, facial or other spa treatment. Most spas have a signature treatment, which is an especially nice gift for the bride. When making the group reservation, let the manager know about the bachelorette party and ask if they have any recommendations or special packages available.
Wedding planning can be stressful, so make sure to plan a little quality time with your girlfriends to celebrate and unwind. The
bachelorette party is perfect excuse for everyone to get together to reminisce about the good old days while sharing a special time with the bride-to-be.
