Being anointed the maid of honor comes as a blessing and as a curse.
You walk down the aisle proud while remaining radiant next to the bride
during the ceremony. But before you walk down the aisle and stand beside
your best friend, you need to attend rehearsal dinners, assist with the
selection of bridesmaid’s colors, aid in the planning of a dinner menu
and even prepare for the bachelorette party. For most maids of honor,
the responsibilities, planning and energy that goes into the role can
seem like a curse—especially your preparing of the bachelorette party.
For ladies looking to bid their friends a happy, fun-filled farewell, a
few games can help fill in long hours of boredom between activities.
The Planning Stage: The Fun, The Boring, The Just Plain Stupid
The party you plan will be remembered one of three ways: fun, boring or
stupid. You never want your party-planning skills remembered as the last
two. You hope and plan that the other ladies remember, replicate and
adore your ideas. For ladies looking to plan a memorable experience,
here’s what to pay attention to.
Drinking Games
A bachelorette party without drinking is like a church without hymns.
Drinking makes the day livelier, adds to the excitement and keeps ladies
entertained. Bride to Be Pass The Bucks takes two simple ideas—drinking
and truth-or-dare—and combines them to make a game filled with
excitement, boozing and fun for ladies. Other games take traditional
party games and add a drinking activity into the fray, such Drink and
Dare Bride Bingo. Whether it’s bingo or truth-or-dare, ladies can find
something to drink, play and laugh at during activities.
Action Games
So drinking is not your thing—or anyone else in the bride’s party. We
have you covered. With these action games, you’ll go from holding penis
shaped cards in Willy Says, a variant of the popular Simon Says games,
to spinning the wheel in Bride-to-Be Spinner, a spin-the-bottle-like
game without the kissing or sex. These games encourage ladies to perform
actions or to respond to questions. One minute you can be admitting
your deepest fetishes, the next, you can be dared into asking a guy to
show you his intimate tattoos while out at a bar later that evening.
Giveaway Games
A bachelorette party isn’t complete until you host a giveaway. From gag
gifts to usable items, ladies can build giveaways centered on
adult-themed games. Winners can earn a number of items, from sex games
to foreplay-educational books. Whether it’s a book or a sex game, ladies
can leave with a lasting memory.
So while you’re preparing the main activities, add a few games into the
fray. As maid of honor, your activities don’t need to be expensive to
make the weekend or day memorable. Your activities need to be fun,
exciting and filled with things you and the bridesmaids will enjoy.
