Tips for Planning a Bachelorette Party

Posted on October 31, 2024

Your best friend is getting married and asked you to be her maid of honor. You are probably thrilled to see her marry the love of her life, but at the same time, you might be stressing over planning a bachelorette party she will remember, especially if it's your first time.

We know there are lots of details to take into consideration when planning an epic bash, but don't worry. Bad Boy Strip is here to give you useful tips and make your friends' single send-off fun and spicy with Bad Boy exotic dancers and entertainers. Let's dive into our top bachelorette party planning tips.

1. Start by consulting with the bride-to-be

Talking to the bride-to-be about what she expects from her bachelorette party is the best thing to do if this is your first time planning this kind of event (or if you know she does not fancy surprises).

Here is what you can consult with her about:

  • Does the bride-to-be want something low-key, like a chill party at a vacation rental or at home? Or does she want a weekend getaway in a sunny destination filled with outdoor activities, bar crawls, wild male strip shows, or other activities?
  • Don't be afraid to ask more specific questions. Ask her for a list of friends she wants to invite to the bachelorette party, about specific venues and places she wants to visit, or about a specific vibe/theme she wants.
  • How long does the bride-to-be want the bachelorette party to last? Depending on her schedule and how stressed she is with the big wedding day preparations, she might want to celebrate with a night out or have a weekend getaway type of bachelorette party.
  • Does the bride want adult entertainment at the bash, or is she totally against it? Make sure you don't plan a naughty surprise if you have no idea how she would react to a male stripper show. If she says she's not comfortable with hiring male strippers for the bachelorette party, you can entertain everyone with sexy, eye-candy male entertainers who serve you drinks and snacks and pamper the guests without stripping down to their G-string.

2. Set the date, location, and the budget

Besides discussing the bachelorette party planning details with the bride-to-be, it's also important to see what everyone else wants. What's the budget everyone is comfortable with? When can all the gals attend the bachelorette party, and of course, where it's best to throw it?

These are questions that need to be answered so you can ask everyone directly or do your best to get an idea of what everyone would like and afford (works with smaller bachelorette party groups).

When everyone agrees on a date, start looking for the location. You can have the bachelorette party at your private residence if you are not traveling anywhere, but if your budget permits, we recommend planning a bachelorette party at an Airbnb, hotel suite, VRBO, or any spacious vacation rental.

What to look for when planning a bachelorette party at a vacation rental:

  • The place is spacious and can host your bash; you have enough rooms, beds, and an equipped kitchen.
  • The rental is not far from downtown or other places you want to explore with the gals.
  • You have a backyard and/or a pool area, so you can throw a pool party, relax, and play party games.

Bad Boy Party Tip: When discussing the budget with the attendees, offer them price ranges to choose from. This way, you won't get too general answers, and you'll know what everyone can really afford.

3. Don't jam-pack the bachelorette party itinerary

It's your first time planning a bachelorette party, and you'll surely get excited by the myriad of things you could do with the gals. But make sure not to overdo it.

Everyone might want to add different bachelorette party activities to the itinerary, from scavenger hunts, club crawling, winery tours, party bus rides, and so on.

However, you'll have to select from all these activities and think about what you'll really have time to do and, more importantly, what the bride-to-be would like the most.

So don't jam-pack the schedule; keep things simple with only a few things to do a day, so nobody gets overwhelmed and the itinerary does not become a stressful checklist.

Here's an example of how a bachelorette party day could look like:

  1. Chill and soak up the sun by the pool in the first part of the day.
  2. Hop on a luxury party bus and go on a 3-4-hour winery tour.
  3. Enjoy a one-hour male strip show at the rental when the sun goes down.

This way, your guests will have time to breathe, catch up, laugh, and relax, but not enough time to get bored or start those "what to do now" conversations. Two to three activities per day keep worries away.

4. Start planning and booking entertainers ahead of time

The best way to avoid getting stressed out when planning a bachelorette party is to start early. So we recommend you start as soon as possible, and this also applies to booking party entertainers. Whether you are looking for male strippers for hire, party bartenders, butlers, or pool Cabana Boys, when you book them early, you get:

  • Better Choices: our Bad Boy entertainers are popular and get booked fast. The sooner you call us, the better your options will be. When we send our private portfolio of Bad Boys available in your area, you'll be able to choose the dancers you like.
  • Customizable Bachelorette Experience: Planning in advance means more time to customize your experience if you are looking for a specific male dancer, stripper theme, like Harry Potter cosplay or Sexy Firefighter, or a certain type of exotic dance show.
  • Less Stress: We're all about less stress and more fun! Planning the bash and booking Bad Boys ahead of time puts less pressure on you and allows you to focus on the fun. After all, you want to throw a memorable bachelorette party, and rushing things out won't help.

5. When planning at the last minute, call Bad Boy Strip

6. Create fun memories

This is not really party advice, as you're probably planning the bachelorette party with this purpose: to create fun memories for everyone, especially for the bride-to-be.

But it's best to remember to keep some kind of keepsake, such as custom matching t-shirts for everyone, themed cowboy hats, swimwear, or even things like matching jewelry or souvenirs from where you plan to visit.

A great way to remember how epic this bachelorette party will be is through photos. That's right, take fun photos at the decorated vacation rental, in the party bus, on that wild Jeep tour with scenic views, or with our themed male strippers and Cabana Boys.

Bad Boy Party Tip: Most of our male entertainers are open to taking photos with your friends, especially if you booked a themed stripper in a sexy and fun costume. However, make sure you ask them for their consent before snapping a pic.

You only do this once. Do it right
