How to Plan a Bachelorette Party!

Tired of standing aside while the guys flaunted their wild last night escapades, the gals are joining in the fun with bachelorette parties often just as raucous as their male counterpoints. But donning a dimestore tiara while a lubed up dancer named Duke invades your personal space isn’t required if that’s not your thing. So just does a bachelorette bash entail? This guide to planning a bachelorette party has everything you need to know to plan the perfect sendoff.

To get you started, here are some fun ideas mentioned in the article, perfect if the bride isn't necessarily the bar hopping and shot taking type of gal:

Adventure Bachelorette – go hiking, rafting, horseback riding, or camping.

Spa Party – gather the girls for some serious pampering

Fondue Party – or any other style of intimate dinner party (fondue just seems to make things more fun!)

Beach Weekend – enjoy some sun, sand - plenty of tropical beverages.

Casino Night – all bets are on! Set up game tables, break out the decks, and test your luck with a roll of the dice.

Wine Tasting – hit up Napa Valley (or the nearest winery) for a day – or weekend – filled with good wine, good conversation, and good friends.
