Bachelorette Party Games, How To Get Attention, Interest, Fun and uniqueness inI wanted to make this bachelorette party games page a complete guide to some of the widely known games played. The classical, as well as a few of my own creations for everybody to pick and chose from "buffé-style", on the basis of what you and your guests like, what kind of a party it would be and how long you play the bachelorette party games. Here are some of the done party games kit for your convenience.
If you know which games you want GET ORGANIZED While the bachelorette party planning is all about the BIG PICTURE, the different areas of the bash however, are not. Organization equals a party that is without hitches from beginning to end. Though every party begins with writing and thinking, it is not always as easy as it would seem. Coming up with ideas for bachelorette party games isn´t difficult, however, coming up with good ideas is. Take out your favorite pen, grab a pad for keeping notes of activities and the overall "to do" list and let´s begin. What does a professional list look like? What should be in it? Do some research on the different bachelorette party games out there. Devide them into subsections (complicated-either for play or planning, type-for manners stile and class in which they are executed, exciting-for motivation, involvement and fun, time-for how long of a gameplay and last but not least db-for decibel as in loud, if you´re planning a home party). Take into account all the characteristics of each and every bachelorette party game, which should be uniquely suited for your party. That´s where "knowing thy self" and thy neighbours is a strong quality to have when determining the nature of your bachelorette party games, how far you are willing to take it and how strong those bachelorette party games should be. As for the neighbours, I find that for the most part, they don´t mind if there´s a hoopla every once in a while. It also helps the good ol´ Public Relations (aka PR), if you ask them to join you. Or, if you don´t want to invite them, at least tell them about it so there´s no surprise when you crank up the volume. I generally find it easier just to invite them, because then they are in no position to voice their discontent if they are part of the "problem". KNOW THE CROWD: If you know that a particular guest or guests usually lose bachelorette party games and don´t get the chance to win much often at those bachelorette party games, tournaments and competitions. Keep an extra eye on those guests and make special bachelorette party games just for these people to compete in, (with each other). Make up tasks/bachelorette party games that will virtually guarantee a victory for each and every one of the participants (if they get cranky for losing). The group should only consist of folks that lost. Keep those who won out, so that the others have a chance to catch up. The trick is to involve as many guests as possible to participate in the bachelorette party games, by giving them something to desire if they win. When you play the bachelorette party games, you always need some sort of prize, to properly motivate your crowd to come forward and join the game. For those who know they always loose at bachelorette party games (As I so vigorously like to call them: Motivationally challenged, as you might have noticed I just love to make up new words), might not want to play. In that case you simply pick those gals out of the lineup and tell them that they are chosen for this activity. It doesn´t even have to be a bachelorette party game (it can be a lottery), just make sure they WIN something afterwards. You can have party gifts/prizes for all of the girls in the crowd, no matter if they win or lose the competition, there is no last place in this game. The important thing to remember here is... TO HAVE FUN! Make sure to hand out the winnings directly after the bachelorette party games are done, that way morale will continue to be high even afterwards. It´s very important for people to have the prize in their hands, to see it and to touch it, for them to become properly motivated. Proceeding with the celebrations and their self-confidence a bit higher then it was before. Don´t think about the bachelorette party games as just a means to pass the time or make the night go faster. Think of your bachelorette party games as a crowd pleaser and something that gets all involved parties to feel good both mentally and physically. Feelings are sooo adictive and people love to have them, especially the good ones. So, plan your bachelorette party games from the perspective to balance their winning/losing streak and establish equilibrium. Even if you don´t know all of the people in this party, you can still find out who is not good at winning by observing the results. [Party tip] Never ever ask people directly to their face, or when in a crowd, if they are bad (if they want to tell you, they will tell you). Asking people this is just like confirming they are lousy before they even had the chance to play. Doing so is a very unpleasant, because the person will feel embarrassed and might not want to join in. In addition to that, she´ll lose her competitive instinct and once again have low self esteem which results in lesser fun. The psychology is that if you get pushed down often enough, you´ll start believing the propaganda yourself. Observing is the key to good morale. [/Party tip] To boost morale even further, make sure that everybody that lost has the chance to win by having a few quick bachelorette party games and devide the crowd in small groups. Take the people who lost in each of the groups and let them play a bachelorette party game together. Preserving the balance between good and bad players, keeping those who win a lot in one group and those who lost in the other. If you have any questions and need to send an email, here´s the way to contact us I usually like to make up my own parties, trix and bachelorette party games, so this is no different... Before we start with the bachelorette party games though, I feel that some advice is in order. First of all, you need to appoint a leader/host who should see to, that everybody behaves and follows the rules. This doesn´t have to be the hostess for the party, although she is the ideal candidate. If she doesn´t want to, she can appoint someone she trust to fulfill the task instead. Everything revolves around the stagette. To plan the bachelorette party games you have to know the bride-to-be as a person, what she likes/doesn´t like, and adapt it after her taste. Don´t go beyond her personality, if she´s "calm at heart" and you choose a wild bachelorette party game that is "out of character" for her she might get uncomfortable. And if you don´t know what she likes, you can always ask. Well at the party, go over the plans with the bachelorette so that both you and she agrees on how the party should proceed. There should be no doubt about how the bachelorette party games should be played and how far you are willing to take it. Some people have different ideas on the meaning of "a good time" then others. Therefore, talking to each other during game activities is very important and sometimes VERY necessary. So for everybodys safety and to ensure a good time, you can agree on a safety word to use if things get out of hand. The best thing with actually making your own games to use at the bachelorette bash is NOT that you can use the help of your girlfriends, but to take the time to talk, laugh, have fun and get to know ALL/most of the girls that are going to participate at the shindig. This is the TRUE ice breaker girls. Although, I must admit that some people don´t have the time to make and prepare things themselves and therefore have to BEGIN I think this is the first website to actually encourage people to get into the bachelorette spirit and do something together as a group (not including the planning bit of course) BEFORE the actual event, but maybe it´s just me :P. OK, enough rambling, let´s get down to business (or in this case, partying). There are a few types of bachelorette party games that can be divided into categories. The types are: Classic/popular, Instant hit and Original Categories: Draw/Cut outs, card games, board games, quests/dares and other/do it yourself/(unspecified). Now, there are 2 TOC´s, 1) is the TYPES TOC and 2) is the CATEGORIES TOC. You click the TOC nr 1 if you want to see ALL the general bachelorette party games that go under those 3 types. Which are not in any particular order. The 2:nd TOC is if you want to find specific game categories. And the final (3:rd) TOC is for those people who know exactly what kind of party game they want. There are 3 types of ratings/levels on the different games. Level ratings are from 0-10 (0 to 2=Low 3 to 5=Medium and 6 to 10=High). So those gals that feel they like a more conservative gameplay, should definitely check out the rating score of the respective games. Those scores at the bottom tell you what you need to know in terms of their guest friendly and sexually oriented nature, for those gals who prefer a more quiet gameplay, so check it out before you pick your play. The "Noise level" score is for the in-door parties only (if you plan on having it in your house). [/INSTRUCTIONS] Let´s start with the most popular, because these are the most sought-after bridal shower games. 1) TABLE OF CONTENT (Types): 2) TABLE OF CONTENT (Categories): 3) TABLE OF CONTENT (games): Or as it´s so affectionately called "Pin the hose on the fireman" and sometimes credited as "Pin the hot dog on the man", but these are all the same game. Read about how to play pin the macho on the man. Here's a great resource if you quickly want to find your most popular bachelorette items Bachelorette Pinata: Bachelorette pinata & ideas. Set up/time: Play/time/instructions: Players: Complexity level: Low (2) Humiliation level: Low (2)
Suck for a buck: Hmm... sounds illegal :). Set up/time: 5-30 min Wooolooooaaaah (in case you were looking at me funny and wondering if I´ve completely lost it I should tell you that this is my siren song, try it out for yourself, you might like it). Ehem... Where was I? Oh that´s right!Use lipstick, marker, sew on or buy imprint (letters you can make on your printer and iron on cotton t-shirt). Let the text say; "Suck for/4 a $" or "Suck for/4 a buck" (whichever you prefer, but the first one has lesser letters, quicker and easier to make). Or just buy the t-shirt to save a couple of days making it, no just joking. Play/time/instructions: No time-limit (Play as long as you like, or until the candy runs out). There are 2 ways you can play this bachelorette party game. 1) Put lifesavers on the t-shirt and let people (preferably men, suck on the lifesavers for a dollar). Remember to have a spare t-shirt or jacket at hand for a quick wardrobe change. Beware of those few that don´t carry change, this has actually happened a couple of times before. So bring it! 2) If you don´t want to do it with the lifesavers, you can use a candy necklace instead. The "victim" can then chew off one candy bead from the candy chain for the same amount of dollars. Players: Undefined/No limit Complexity level: Low (2) Humiliation level: Medium (4) Male Rating Cards: Get back at all the boys for treating you as a peace of meat all these years (just have them close by when walking down the town and rate guys as they pass by). Good for those male cabaret shows, pool-parties and nightclubs as well. Set up/time: 10-20 min Cut out both the paper and the cardboard and make sure they are both the same size (for ex; 6" x 9"). Use the cardboard as a brace to paint each of the paper rating cards, switching to the next when you´re done painting and fixing the first one. NOW, for the interesting part. How should I change the ratings? Well, if you thought you should glue the cards on, you´re WAAAY off :P. If you have some pins lying around, this is the time to use them. You need 2 pins to hold the cards top corners on the board. Pin all 10 cards on the board using the 2 pins and flip the ratings as you see fit using the 3:rd pin to keep the flipped cards on the other side of the board. If you want to have the rating cards with the mounted stick on, keep reading, otherwise just skip this how to :). 3 ways to do this: 1) Glue/superglue on the stick (won´t hold in rough weather if you plan on walking with it a longer period of time). 2) Break out your hammer from the dusty closet and find 2 or more nails to spike them through the cardboard and the stick. 3) The best one in my opinion. Take a knife and cut 2 vertical and parallel holes that are wider than the stick itself. Take some string and wrap it around the stick and thread it in the holes. That way it will definitely stick in weather and wind :). Play/time/instructions: Undefined/unspecified "gametime".Well, the instructions are super easy, just rate the men and hold those cards as high as you can for them to see. Players: Undefined/None Complexity level: Low (0) Humiliation level: Low (1) Noise level: High (8) Bride and Groom Trivia: This is a particular fun loving game that many girls have some mixed feelings about hehe. Understandable, since there are folks that don´t want other people meddling in there private affairs, to disect parts of that persons intimate relationship with their partner. Scavenger Hunt: You can´t begin your scavenger hunt game before you are a fully fledged pirate, so join the pirate school where you´ll learn to be really scary in your pirate hat and eye patch, aaaarrrggghhhh matey. There are a few versions of this bachelorette party game, including a scavenger hunt card game which we´ll cover further down (in a galaxy near you ;P). This is a party standard at any bachelorette festivity, you just have to play this. Set up/time: 1-10 min The best way to plan what to include in your mission roster would be to have every day items (toilet paper, towels, perfume etc), but make sure not to make the hunt too short. If you want your hunt to be more outstretched, blend in some of the more difficult and rare items. For people who plan on having a scavenger hunt out doors (in the city or cover a wide area, should not attempt this without proper backup, such as other bridesmaids or those who do not intend on participating as a player). Getting help along the way also makes for a unique scavenger hunt. Each teams checklist could include recruiting a sidekick to help with the search, find a person willing to help and recruit them (exclude the 2 item penalty for this one gals). This planning process is fairly complicated if you intend on going about it by yourself to have a high quality hunt, so those of you who feel that you don´t have the time and energy to focus all your efforts on one single game, should aquire the game with it´s full instructions. Now if you really truly want a professional bachelorette party scavenger hunt game, you just absolutely have to visit this company to book your next hunt! They have done literally 1000´s of scavenger hunts and you will have so much fun, you´ll be needing a doctor every 10 minutes for those convolutions of laughter... Guaranteed!
30-1,5 h The list can include both items and/or services you have to obtain in order to win, like underwear from a guy, condoms, dancing with a hunk, getting a free drink, a phone number etc. Each "item" has a different rating value. Points are counted at the end of the hunt and the victor is then proclaimed by either score and/or by number of items. There should be a 2 item penalty for every new player that joins the team. This bachelorette party game can be played either with a group of single players or in teams for enhanced gameplay and for more fun (jeez, I sound like some of the videogame commercials!). [Scavenger hunt tip]:For further enjoyment, each team can have one video camera (preferably DV cameras for greater resolution) with them and record each "item" listed on the scavenger hunt sheet as video proof. After getting back to the "headquarters" you can all watch the video tapes together and laugh your fannies off but don´t forget to announce the winner.[/Scavenger hunt tip] [This is only a general description of the gamerules, which may not apply to your specific bought scavenger hunt game, this is only intended as a suggestion/guide on how to play this bachelorette party game] For more information on the rules, read all about it on this website.

ORIGINAL/FRESH BACHELORETTE PARTY GAMES: Add a little excitement to it and you have a hell of a bachelorette party game on your hands. Combine it with bachelorette dares and you might be one of the lucky ones to wake up with a hangover the size of Russia, on a fishing boat on it´s way to Nova Scotia. But that´s only if you´re lucky ;). Set up/time: 7 min Play/time/instructions: 20-1 h (or longer) Nothing more to say really, except either make the dare questions in advance or make it up as you go along. My recommendation is to wing it because it will be totally unprepared and more fun and exciting to see what people can come up with in the heat of the moment, spin it and wing it. Players: 6-10 (or more) Complexity level: Low (2) Humiliation level: High (9) Noise level: High (7) Do it or loose it, Make it or Break it, Do or dare, this dangerous bachelorette party game is not for the timid and faint hearted. To win you need courage, boldness and a twist of luck to pull it off. Getting people to do your bidding has never been easier! :P Of course all you have to do before you can make someone clean your dirty dishes and take out your garbage, is to win! Set up/time: 3 min Play/time/instructions: 30-45 min Rather than applying a "punishment" for the "truth or dare" bachelorette party games you normally play, where the player herself decides the outcome of the "punishment" for the opponent if she choses dare instead of truth. Just assign some sort of "punishment" to a specific number on the dice and when the dice falls on that number, then that person will be punished. Simple, yet effective. Other crazy dares such as scratch a dare are alternatives to the otherwise common dares we see in everyday life. This will definitely stir up some crazy laughter. Players: 3-12 Complexity level: Low (2) Humiliation level: High (9) Noise level: Medium (5) Sculpt a Pecker: Michael Angelo would be so proud. Set up/time: 7 min Prepare some fruits/candy/vegetables to go with the banana or cucumber so it´d look better, like sprinkles, chocolate ice cream sauce, colored marzipan, raisins, radishes etc. Let everyone sit down by the table and get ready. Make a list of names for every participant with 3 lines between each name. Play/time/instructions: 15 min Place 2 condoms in the middle of the table (unopened of course) and the person who is first to dress the pecker down with the condom after creating her penis wins. Alternatively, the person who wins by most points gets to coronate her penis with the see-through pleasure sheath. Cut the cucumber/banana in half so it stands on the plate and get to work. How to judge: Players: 6-7 Complexity level: Low (0) Humiliation level: Low (0) Noise level: Medium (4) Carve that halloween pumpkin: Carve...carve...til your eyes bleed & you´re covered in pumpkin meat. Set up/time: 10-15 min Play/time/instructions: 20-40 min How to judge: Players: 3-7 Complexity level: Low (2) Humiliation level: Low (0) Noise level: Medium (4) Bag it and tag it!: All I can say is grab it and feel it. Set up/time: 4 min Play/time/instructions: 15 min How to judge: Players: 6-10 Complexity level: Low (0) Humiliation level: Low (0) Noise level: Low (1) DRINKING GAMES: Here are the craziest alcoholic and non-alcoholic bachelorette drinking games on the planet!
