5 Bachelorette Party Theme Ideas

Bachelorette parties have become a right of passage for women who are about to tie the knot, but getting drunk and flirting with bartenders may not be the stuff of fond pre-marital memories. Why not spice up a bachelorette party by adopting one of the following bachelorette party themes?

Chocolate Tasting. Expensive wine can get pretty pricey, but the most expensive chocolate in the world sells for $120 a pound. You can acquire some of the most delectable cocoa samples for far less than that and a chocolate tasting themed party could be a treat that your guests aren't soon to forget. Set up chocolate tasting samples to contrast and compare. You can provide a chocolate buffet or even ask each of your guests to bring a chocolate concoction of their own to share. A chocolate fountain can serve as the centerpiece for your chocolate themed bachelorette party, and it's sure to be a sweet success.

Casino Night. Who says poker is just for boys? Set up the game tables, break out the cards, and give this bachelorette party theme idea a roll of the dice. Decorations are easily acquired, and you can even play with monopoly money if people are concerned about the evils of gambling.

Chick Flicks. Now might be the last chance the bride-to-be will have to watch chick flicks without the ritualistic arguments with her husband about whether or not an action film might be more fun. Treat her to a night of Blockbuster videos with popcorn and a sleepover. Or perhaps take the girls out to the theatre for a double feature!

Murder Mystery. If the bride-to-be likes mysteries, you can throw a special bachelorette party for her complete with costumes and a murder to solve. The best thing about a murder mystery theme for your bachelorette party, is that with a minimal investment on Ebay, you can buy a 'How to Host a Murder Mystery' boxed set with everything you need, including suggestions and invitations. Make sure to offer a prize to the guest that figures out who the killer is!

Crystal Balls and Fortune Fun. Chances are that by the time you're planning a bachelorette party, the bride is a bit anxious to know what her future holds. Her bridesmaids are probably wondering when they're going to get married or, at least, whether or not they're going to hook up with anyone at the wedding. Why not alleviate these anxieties by throwing a Crystal Ball themed bachelorette party. Hire a tarot card reader, a palm reader, or a fortune teller with a real crystal ball. Most of them will be willing to come to your bachelorette party venue for a modest fee, but if you can't afford to hire a professional, you can still use the Crystal Ball bachelorette party theme and pull it off with panache. You can buy your own deck of tarot cards and spend the evening learning to do readings for one another. Give out fortune cookies or charm candles as party favors. Have an astrology guide at each place setting. Ham it up! This is one bachelorette party theme idea where you can't go too far.
