The wedding day is approaching fast, so it’s probably time to start thinking about the bachelorette party. Planning it should be fun, so don’t sweat the fact that you know nothing about them.
Like with other kinds of parties, bachelorette party planning starts with a couple of important decisions. Figure out the location, then move on the the fun stuff you can do during the party.
First, figure out where the bride would be most comfortable. The reason is because some of the activities can be a little embarassing. Having it in public may be more than the bride can handle.
If she doesn’t embarrass easily, having it out in public will probably work. If she’s shy, and doesn’t like a lot of attention, then giving her some of those naughty, male-member type gifts at the local bar probably isn’t a good idea. The name of the game is fun, so doing anything to totally embarrass the bride-to-be would be a waste her last night out as a single girl.
When planning your activities for the party, you can be as conservative or as crazy as the bride-to-be’s personality will allow. You don’t want to plan anything like a male stripper for your friend if she’s extremely straight-laced and would hate you forever if you did it. On the other side of that, you don’t want to plan a knitting party for your friend who loves to party into the night at the local clubs.
Here are just a few of the fun bachelorette party games/activities that are available:

No matter which way you decide to go (conservative or crazy), it’s a good idea to get the other ladies from the wedding party (not including the bride-to-be – she’s busy enough with wedding plans) to help you out. If the others aren’t take-charge kind of people, come up with a list of items you’d like to accomplish, and assign something to everyone.
Involving everyone in the planning process is not only more fun, but it will take the pressure off of you trying to get everything done by yourself. The whole bachelorette party planning process (say that 3 times fast) should be fun, so anything you can do to make it more enjoyable for everyone involved will make for a successful party.
