A string of disasters might happen at a bachelorette. It is best to know ahead of what will not fly!
Bachelorette shenanigans should never be dialled down for the sake of cutting a few bucks or laziness. Truly, it is an opportunity to catch up with old pals and let go of restraints. But before getting started with the gayety, pertinent to know where to draw the line.
Party timings could be wild but since it is a bachelorette, the person for whom it is thrown could be under a lot of stress. Bachelorettes should not be an overscheduled and overwhelming experience which would eventually stress people more than giving them a moment of enjoyment. It is always wise not to drag the party hours late. Even better is to set the part a month or two before the wedding to let the bride/groom party under more relaxed circumstances.
Being a Monica at parties could be a bummer, especially when it is a bachelorette and the main subject is not into all of the nitty-gritty. Planning out colours, themes, dresses, and pops should always be in sync with the one for whom you are throwing the party. Avoid scuttling from one destination to the next or listing a lot on the to-do menu. Allow some scope for spontaneity.
We have those party nights, but a bachelorette should not be one of those nights to ditch the group and wander off. Sticking with the squad is important. You may hit the dance floor or take a quick trip to the pub, but sneaking out at midnight to go home could be a major disappointment for one and all.
Wasting away on such a memorable night (for the bridge/groom at least) means blurring of memories, something which nobody wants after such elaborate planning and execution. Important to remember the types of invitees and their preferences. For destressing, a laidback party aura must work wonders. Let not excess food and drinks take a toll on the party-mongers and make the night an oblivion.
Grumbling about costs and expenses openly might not be an idle way to savour the night. The wise thing is to do the planning ahead and commit to the budget laid out so as not to be grumpy about it later in the party. Unplanned party expenses could dredge up a lot of bitterness and drama. Stirring the pot could, of course, ensue a lot of unnecessary guilt trips for the attendees.
Being too cliched or sticking to the same old stale ideas could turn the party into a big snorefest for all. The idea is not to go big but at least to know well the vibe and plan something which would help friends bond and be candid. And, of course, when in doubt, take stock of the latest trends from social influencers. Next crucial thing is the blunder of not having a plan ahead. This is done by many simply to indulge in the bliss of not knowing what to do next. Be sure to keep at bay the befuddling “what now?” moments.
Let your parties be more than bar hopping and passing out in the strangest of places. Let your parties bring back the joie de vivre to the wedding itself! Keep the safety quotient checked to not get bogged down by party-poopers and random dudes sending across free shots.
