Bachelorette parties are all about the celebration of good things to come. These parties represent a rite of passage for many brides-to-be. As such, they should be memorable. Some of the elements that make such a party memorable – think spa days or comedy clubs – are easy to plan for. What isn’t always easy to plan for is the spirit behind a memorable bachelorette party. If you’ve been tasked with planning a friend or relative’s bachelorette party, you’ll want to plan a party that keeps following three tips in mind. These tips aren’t party specific. Rather, they are tips, that if followed, allow for a stress-free, fun evening regardless of the event’s theme or itinerary.
Plan for Everyone
Some of your guests like a boisterous affair. Some like quiet chit chat. Because of this, it can be difficult to plan a successful bachelorette party. The trick is to create event time blocks. For example, during the first part of the party, you’ll maybe have dinner or Happy Hour snacks somewhere. You can open the gifts, play your games, and chat over coffee.
In the latter part of the evening, those who want to continue cocktail hour can go downtown, while those with kids and early morning obligations can head home if they wish. If you go with this type of plan, then be sure to put an itinerary of events in your invitations. This allows people to plan for the evening ahead of time.
Hire Transportation for the Night
This is a bit of a corollary to the suggestion above. The plain fact of the matter is many bachelorette parties will include alcohol and, in some cases, not enough to eat to counter the effects of the alcohol. This makes it unsafe to drive and opens up party guests to the risk of getting pulled over and getting a DUI/ DWI. Talk about a mood killer.
Hiring transportation for the night can help you avoid the consequences for driving drunk that could ruin the whole evening altogether. You have plenty of options for party transportation. You can go with a company like Uber or Lyft, hire a limo, or even talk some sober friends into providing your party with transportation for the night.
Less is More
It’s understandable that you may want your bachelorette party to be a knockout. However, when you immerse yourself in this mindset, it’s easy to try to cram a zillion activities into one big, spectacular display of all things bridal. This leads to over-scheduling, which will just exhaust everyone in the end. Remember, the point of this get-together is togetherness and socializing.
Every activity should come second to the connections that everyone invited will make with one another. In this case, less is more. The fewer activities you plan for the party means the more time everyone has to spend socializing and getting to know one another.
The most memorable parties address all of these issues, without seeming like they were a very big deal in the first place.

Having trouble coming up with bachelorette party ideas? Look no further! Here is the place to gather fun, girly ideas to incorporate into your night of fun. Use these 3 tips and experience a fun spa-themed girls’ night before the big day arrives
Mani-Pedis
Manicures and pedicures are the go-to girl bonding experience. You can hire a professional manicurist at your party, visit your local salon, or give each other manicures and pedicures. It is fun to sit and talk with all your girlfriends over a mimosa as your feet soak in a warm tub. Let your guests choose from a variety of colors that match the color theme of your wedding, as well as special nail decorations to personalize your nails. You can also hire a manicurist to do nail art so that you and your friends can really show off their nails.
Eyelash Extensions
Every girl strives to have that perfect eyelash for special events like a wedding. It can be fun to incorporate eyelash extensions into the festivities of your bachelorette party. When it comes to choosing the ideal type of eyelash for you, pay special attention to the material they are made of. Natural mink lashes are the most popular for extensions, as they are long-lasting and can be safely heated and curled like the real deal. Let each girl choose their ideal length and thickness so that they all can feel spectacular. Eyelash extensions can last for weeks, so you can install them the night before and be ready for the wedding the next day, as well as give the girls a gift they’ll be able to enjoy long after the bride’s left for her honeymoon.
Facials
If you want a way to feel pampered and luxurious at your bachelorette party, you should indulge in facials. Professional facials make your face look fresh and dewy for your big day, although if you’re on a budget, at-home korean face masks can work well too. This is another great girl bonding experience you should take advantage of. You and your girlfriends can clean, exfoliate, and moisturize your skin while you sit back and chat with each other. You may even be able to get a face massage is your professional offers that service. It is very relaxing, especially if the bride or any bridesmaids have nerves for the upcoming wedding.
Bachelorette parties are for you and your girlfriends to have fun on the brides last night of being single. Take the time to share good memories and lots of laughs as you get your nails, eyelashes, and faces done. You will remember this night for the rest of your lives and prepare for the upcoming wedding.

We all know the song by Leslie Gore, “It’s My Party.” VIP wants to help you make your party as cry free as possible. Let VIP help you plan the perfect party with barely any bumps in the road. Planning a bachelorette party is stressful and the person who is planning it can become overwhelmed. We have seen everyone from the Maid Of honor to The Mother of the Bride taking on this chaotic yet exciting task. We have also seen some major meltdowns during the party. We are sure you have heard the stories; the bouncer has an attitude, the limo driver missed a turn, it took five minutes for the girl at the counter to find a name on a list. While this may seem silly to most, the person who planned the party may find these small gaffes to be a disaster!
Follow these tips and give the bride to be a night to remember!
Don’t sweat the small stuff! There are always going to be a few bumps in the night. Just remember there is a VIP party host provided for you! Let them worry and you have fun with the bride-to-be.
What the bride doesn’t know won’t hurt her. Make the night as worry free for the bride as possible and keep things under the table. It will all work out and VIP is here to make sure it does.
Stirring up drama usually does not help. There are usually conflicting personalities within parties. Remember that the night is not about anyone except your best friend who wants one last night to have fun. The time to start drama can wait for another day.
One last thought. Have fun! This will be a night to remember, might as well make it a positive one!
