Your bachelorette party doesn’t have to be a sloppy, raucous affair that you forget about the next morning. A nice weekend with your BFFs is just as much fun. Plus, the bride doesn’t want to be embarrassed on her wedding weekend! Here are some sophisticated bachelorette party ideas, activities, décor, and gifts to help you throw a celebration she’ll never forget!
Classy Bachelorette Party Ideas
Let’s start with the weekend’s general atmosphere. Even if there are times at the party when you want to stir things up a little, classy bachelorette parties allow for rest and relaxation. This could be something as simple as getting your nails done or treating the bride to a spa session.
AnotherIdeas
Consider a spa day or getting your nails done if your party is in the mood to splurge. Make the appointment ahead of time so they can prepare for a huge event.
Party Venue
Staying in a house rather than a hotel allows you to schedule “nights in” where you can prepare supper together, play games, and relax.
We suggest locating a location with enough rooms for everyone. Having all the girls sleep in beds rather than crashing on couches or futons feels a little more nice. Furthermore, having everyone remain in their own room keeps the communal areas free of bedding, pillows, and bags.
If you use Airbnb to find a place to stay, here is a credit to help you save money. Airbnb is great since you can hire a house with unique amenities like a pool, hot tub, or fireplace.
Party Decorations
Choose a color scheme and theme, then buy everything in that manner. Instead of going for a filthy look, strive for an instagram-worthy one.
This rose gold bachelorette party in a box is one of our favorites. It includes everything you’ll need for party decorations, such as banners, balloons, and accessories. The only item in the box that isn’t so sophisticated is an ice cube tray shaped like a male body part. You can toss that part or keep it if you want to pay homage to a traditional bawdy bachelorette celebration.
The secret to tasteful decorations is to keep everything in the same color scheme and avoid anything vulgar. Because you can’t control what everyone brings to a huge party, we recommend that one person buys all of the decorations for the group. Of course, divide the costs and inform everyone ahead of time how much it will cost.
Party Costume
What better way to express your support for the bride than by wearing matching shirts? The secret to stylish bachelorette shirts, though, is to choose something that everyone in the party will like. Not everyone wants to wear a ridiculous statement on a black racerback tank.
Party Activities
You can definitely do a bar crawl during the day but consider some of these other options below to class up the event a little bit.
Wine Tasting
Holding a wine glass in your hand just makes you feel a little classier! The blog Emmaline Bride outlines how to make the perfect wine tasting bachelorette party.
If you want to make sure everyone has their own wine glasses, try these customized ones on Etsy. Or you can get some cute wine tags on Etsy to make sure everyone knows whose drink is whose. These make great gifts to take home too.
Glamping
If the bride-to-be is the outdoorsy type, think about glamping. Bridal Musings says consider a glamping trip complete with an Airstream, s’mores and of course, wildflower headwear. This can be a classy alternative to a night out at the bar if that is not your bride’s style.
Tea Party
Pinkies up ladies. As Brides shows you, high tea with your friends can be both classy and fun! If your group would think this type of outing was fun, consider adding it to your itinerary.
Cooking Class
Not only is it a lot of fun, but it’s also a great meal afterwards. You can search on Airbnb Experiences to see if you can find a cooking class in your bachelorette party location. It may be hard to arrange this for a large group so definitely call ahead.
Food Tour
Or if cooking isn’t your thing, think about taking a food tour. Ultimate Bridesmaid says most major cities have a food tour where you can taste the best cuisine the city has to offer. Food tours are a cool alternative to bar crawls. You can check Airbnb Experiences for this activity too. I have heard of coffee crawls if you think your bride may prefer that instead (and it will probably be cheaper).
Party Invitations
Congrats! It’s finally here! The moment you’ve been waiting for has arrived! It’s time to arrange the year’s best bachelorette party! It’s time to gather everyone for one last hurrah before the big day, whether you’re the bride-to-be or her bestie. Let’s get this bachelorette party underway by sending out bachelorette party invitations.

Pro Tips
In addition to the previous point, inform the guests ahead of time of any rules the bride may have in mind, such as no lingerie games, indecent gifts, or strippers. It’s critical that the guests are aware of this ahead of time so that they don’t bring anything that would embarrass the bride that you weren’t aware of.
It’s fantastic that guests want to pitch in and help out at the celebration. Don’t turn them off. Give them some helpful advice in a friendly manner to minimize embarrassment for the bride later!
