Planning tips for bachelorette party games
- Know the guest list. If moms, aunts or future in laws are coming, these clean games keep everyone comfortable.
- Prep the partner questions early. Record the answers a week before so you are not chasing them on the day.
- Mix in and out. One or two out and about challenges plus a few night in games makes a balanced evening.
- Let the bride opt out. Check which games she is happy to star in. The best bachelorette is one she enjoys.
- Prizes: mini candles, nail polish, face masks, sunglasses and snacks make great rewards.
How to choose
Think about where the party happens and who is coming. A weekend away gives you time for a longer game such as the hidden role game plus a craft like the Veil Design Challenge. A dinner out works best with table games that need no equipment, like Bride Says and Secret Missions. If the group is a mix of school friends, work friends and family, open with Two Truths and a Lie, Bride Edition so everyone hears a few stories and starts chatting. Finish with a keepsake game so the bride goes home with something to remember.
