Bachelorette party: smart tips to throw an unforgettable party

When you’re an adult, getting your friends together for a night filled with good conversations, delicious drinks and memorable moments is always a worthwhile program. If any of these BFFs — or you! – is about to get married, officially about to close the cycle of singleness and start a new life, nothing fairer than upgrading the simple program and turning it into an event: the time has come to think about Bachelorette🇧🇷

On this page you can find precious tips so that the little party (yours or your friend’s) goes off the ground and takes place without major difficulties.

Who’s in charge?

Cynthya Wagatawedding planner at The Perfect Weddingfrom Paraguay, says that, generally, the bride is not the one in charge of the preparations for the farewell, but her best friends or closest family members (who usually also play the roles of bridesmaids).

In our opinion, this makes perfect sense, and the best thing is to ask someone you trust to take on this responsibility and allow you to chime in whenever you want. This way, you stay calm and avoid another issue until the big day falling into your lap.

Rules, however, do not exist: if the bride so desires, of course she can be fully responsible for the event.

How long does it take to organize a farewell show?

According to Cynthya, a period of three to four months is ideal to start organizing the farewell calmly, always researching values ​​and proposals. The party should be scheduled for one or two months before the wedding (depending on the event) and, under no circumstances, think about having it on the eve of the ceremony – let’s agree that nobody wants to marry their friend with a hangover, right?

Who’s going?

If you are the friend in charge of the farewell, be sure to sit down with the bride to decide who the guests will be, but do this even before choosing the location or services for the party. By putting everything on paper, you have a clearer idea of ​​how many people will be present, you can estimate values ​​and end up avoiding unnecessary expenses.

The final number on the guest list also often varies. It’s as good to think of a smaller party, with just a select group of friends (from work, college, college…) and family, as it is to call all the women in your life to the celebration. Invite people in the way that is easiest for you: via email, social networks, phone call, WhatsApp or using traditional paper invitations.

What to do?

The most important thing, even before defining what kind of farewell you will have, is to keep in mind that the party must be completely planned according to the bride’s profile (and not yours), so that she can enjoy it. her without feeling uncomfortable or disturbed. If your friend is more quiet and homely, there’s nothing to do with setting up an event at a club – and vice versa.

According to Cynthya, the trend at the moment is to bet on farewells that last not just one night, but two or three whole days. If you want to embark on this, consider sharing the rent of a house or apartment on a beach or place close to your city to spend the weekend with friends, for example, or even go on a trip to another country – if the budget of guests allow.

Themed parties are also popular, as well as boat trips and afternoons tasting drinks at wineries or breweries (chic!).

Want more ideas? Paper and pen in hand to write down the countless possibilities: think about reserving a hotel suite to spend the night with friends, having a day spa with relaxing massages, glasses of champagne and an ofuro bath, going out to a club and if you finish dancing until dawn, going to a show, visiting different bars in your city all night long, trying a drink in each one of them, renting a limousine and having the party inside… Whew!

If none of these options appeal to you, stick with the classic party at the salon or at home. The advantages? It can be 100% personalized and economical, with decor, games and playlists defined by you!

focus on the look

It’s also nice to think about the looks that the bride and her guests will wear on the farewell day, always remembering that the bride must stand out. Example: if the party is on the beach, how about wearing the same personalized bathing suits? The bride’s, of course, is usually a different color than her other friends, who wear a different shade.

Bet on themed glasses and head accessories if the celebration takes place in a bar or nightclub – the bride will wear a veil and her friends define some other prop to use. Embroidered bathrobes, personalized t-shirts and even coordinated looks – in the same color chart – are other equally interesting ideas, which vary according to the chosen party.

Menu

If the party is at home, think of easy food options that don’t take any work to prepare. It’s worth resorting to good old delivery and ordering pizza, ordering snacks and traditional sweets, or preparing canapés to serve. Another ‘vapt-vupt’ way of resolving the ‘menu issue’ is to ask each guest to bring their plate of food.

As for the drinks, you can prepare different recipes yourself, in addition to the beloved trio of beer, wine and sparkling wine. Don’t forget to serve unlimited water and also offer options for non-alcoholic drinks.

gifts

In general, it is not necessary for guests to bring gifts to a bachelorette party – unless the event is a bridal or lingerie shower. Even so, think about making an extra treat for your friend who is getting married, and give her a symbolic gift, which can be made together (in a totally DIY vibe) or bought in partnership with the other best friends.

If you want to touch the future bride’s heart, turn to technology and ask her groom or bride to record a cute video message – put the images to rotate in the middle of the event and wait for the tears.

Bonus: whether you are the bride or one of the BFFs, enjoy the party a lot, celebrate and cherish the company of your friends!
