The Best

Bachelorette Scavenger Hunt

This is an exciting and action-packed game to play at the bar. Each participants get a task or dare to do, which they have to complete in a specified time and come back with video evidence to show that it’s been completed. This can be done individually or in teams. For example, you may give a task to ask an elderly couple for tips for newlyweds, give a guy your number, find a guy with the same name as the groom, or get a photo with the hottest guy in the bar. These challenges can be hilarious, and it’s fun to see which of your guests gets super competitive!

Funny Memories Guess

This game can add a sentimental tone to the party or make it outright hilarious, based on the elements given by each of the participants. In this game, each guest has to write down a valuable memory of an experience they had with the bride-to-be – each of these memories is written on a card and kept anonymous. In the end, the bride reads out each memory and guesses which belongs to whom. This is an excellent way to revisit precious memories can be great fun and help reinforce the bond between friends. 

The Dare Scratch Cards

In this game, the guests can get bold and try their luck to celebrate the night and add more fun using dare cards. Dares can be embarrassing, but they are stacks of fun when taken in the right spirit. Each participant picks up a card with a dare written on it, and then they have to perform the dare, no matter how embarrassing it is! For an extra incentive, make it a rule that they have to buy the bride-to-be a drink as a penalty if they don’t follow through.

Card-based Drinking Games

In these kinds of games, you usually have a set of cards with each card having a question, game, or a prompt for a dare. The questions can be about your funniest mishap, most embarrassing moment in life, or something to do with the bride, and failing (or succeeding) will mean you have to drink. It can be hilarious and serves as an excellent ice-breaker when guests are meeting each other for the first time. We love the GJWGC (Girls Just Wanna Get Crunk) game, which has a set of 262 cards and 6 categories of games for endless fun! 

‘Drink If’ Game

There are several versions of this game, but in essence it’s all about taking a drink if you have done a certain thing in the past. For example, you may have to drink if you’ve known the bride-to-be for five or more years, or drink if you have dated someone that the leading lady knows personally. This game can be super fun and is sure to add tons of laughter to the mix.

The Worst

Male strippers

Ok this one isn’t a game, but all the same we suggest you skip the tacky male strip show. No one really enjoys it, especially the bride-to-be. So enjoy each others’ company and play some hilarious games instead!

Excessive Drinking Games

Sometimes, drinking games can get crazy. Enjoy fun cards-based drinking games or “drink if” games that will help everyone get to know each other better, but skip the excessive drinking Olympics, such as beer bongs and keg stands. If the “game” is more about swallowing as much alcohol as possible than it’s about bonding or actually having fun, give it a miss!

Stale Dinner Party Games

Pictionary may be fun at a dinner party, but there are more exciting thing you could be doing at your bachelorette, not to mention a bunch of more interesting games that will let all your guests bond and get to know each other.

Bachelorette party games guarantee everyone will have a good time. Out of the many themes and types available, such as drinking games, card games, musical games, messy games like the paintball, and extreme and crazy games, it’s important to choose those that fit with the vibe of the party and the bride’s personality. Of course, the special day will have its share of food and music and dance, but the bachelorette party should also be a day or night to remember!
