The bachelorette party is for the bride to have some fun with her friends before she gets married. Including party games adds to the fun, whether the party is held at home or at an outside venue.
Traditionally, games and activities are aimed at embarrassing the bride and having some fun at her expense, but make sure they are fun. Have fun at the bride’s expense, but ensure that she will be laughing too. Remember, it is a celebration time for the bride and she has to have fun.
The bride is usually provided with a tiara and bridal veil to wear while the party is in progress, and this is part of the fun. When the celebration is at a venue, the bride’s outfit attracts the attention of other patrons and they join in the fun.
One of the best party games needs someone to do some work before the event, so get someone to help you with this. Put together a questionaire and get the groom to answer the questions about the two of them as a couple, including a few more personal things that could provide a laugh. At the party, you then ask the bride the same set of questions, and compare her answers to those the groom gave. There will certainly be loads of fun and laughter. A womans magazine might be a good place to find information on bachelorette party invitations or bridal shower ideas.
Another question game involves asking the bride some questions about herself and the groom which you then ask the guests at the party. Include questions about the groom, his preferences, their relationship etc; things the guests can’t possibly know. The guest’s answers are sure to be clever and varied and will have everyone laughing.
Cola drinking games are always fun, but make sure that they are suitable for the individual, to avoid problems; the bride has a drink of cola when she gets an answer wrong. The more wrong answers she gives, the funnier she will become.
Scavenger hunts involve all the guests and are great fun. Keep the items to be found related to the wedding theme, with the emphasis on makeshift solutions to a problem. It is really important to have games that aren’t too long, so keep the list short for this one, but allow time for the guests to compare what they have found. Suggestions for the list could be something needed on the honeymoon, an item the groom should not be without, something in the bride’s favorite color and an item to signify their relationship.
Give everyone a good laughs by setting the bride some challenges to be completed with the guests looking on. Come up with hilarious dares that she would usually be too embarrassed to even consider doing, like finding a man in the bar wearing the same type of shoes as her groom wears and getting the band to ask her to sing. This great activity ensure that everyone is kept amused and entertained, even the other people at the venue.
There are lots of resources where you can find ideas for fun games which can be adapted for a bachelorette party. Any games you play need to be simple and amusing for all, especially the target of the fun. Again a friend that has had a bachelorette party is a good resource for bachelorette party favors.
