You can choose something more conservative like a bridal shower while inviting acquaintances and friends alike. Or you can make it a more intimate event and turn it into something downright crazy. If you've got a friend who is up for a good time and just once a night to forget all of the stress related to a wedding, that a bachelorette party is the best idea possible.

There's no reason why you can't have more fun than the guys with a bit of creativity and ingenuity. It could end up being one of the most memorable nights for everyone involved, and you might be talking about it for years to come. Here's what you need to make it happen:

A Good Guest List - this is the type of event that isn't just a casual get-together where you reminisce about old times. It's going to be an outright bash filled with fun and possible debauchery. That means you need the right mix of girls, and should be kept to good friends and close family members. If you don't get a good chemistry within the group, it makes a lot of the games and activities a lot harder to play. That means coworkers that the bride barely knows and acquaintances she only sees every few months should be left off this particular guest list.

Food and Drinks - no great party is ever complete without the right type of food and beverages. Is obviously going to be some drinking involved so you have to make sure to have a wide selection available for all the girls. You might even want to play a few drinking games to get the night started, and that will obviously require some popular favorites. And if you're going to be drinking, a touch of food is always helpful to keep things in balance. Have some appetizers and hors d'oeuvres on hand, and you might want to make plans to top off the evening had a great restaurant.

Toys and Accessories - all you have to do is look online and you'll see that there are plenty of bachelorette party supplies available from various sources. These are the types of toys and accessories you don't see every day. But for an event like this, though get the girls laughing and serve as a wonderful talking point. Some of the toys you see are downright naughty and verging on ridiculous. But they are designed exactly for this type of party, and it's always nice to have one or two on hand so you can get a bit silly.

Games - just like toys, you can also look online for some bachelorette party games to keep the night moving along. This can be a great way to start off the evening and establish the tone for the rest of the party. Even something as simple as singing a few karaoke songs or playing a bit of truth or dare can get the guests in the mood. You can also come up with more elaborate things like comprehensive scavenger hunts or even a costume contest. Just make sure that you plan everything with the bride-to-be in mind because this night is all about her at the end of the day.
